"The Hanging Judge of California" (formerly titled "Perfect Justice") explores the controversial decisions of the Federal 9th Circuit Court in reversing death penalty verdicts, focusing on Judge Donald A. McCartin, who condemned nine men to death row. The audiobook details the case of convicted child killer Rodney Alcala, whose verdict was overturned after 23 years, alongside the horrific crimes of eight other sentenced killers. Combining McCartin's sharp insights on the appeals process with his personal memoirs and encounters with notable figures, this work is essential for true crime enthusiasts and those curious about the complexities of the judicial system.
