I posted the following 'nominations' to the WBTruth Exposing Corruption site. They presented their list of Heroes & Villains on the steps of the Luzerne County Courthouse on July 17, 2014.
A few nominations...
Heroes... Todd Krautheim, Terance Healy
( Working to expose an unconstitutional law (improperly enacted in every state) which robs people of their rights, and prevents lawyers, judges and law enforcement from any action to expose it.)
Villains... The Wilkes Barre Law And Library Association
(aka... The Luzerne County Bar Association) The lawyers all know they must maintain silence/confidentiality where it would adversely affect the integrity of the judiciary. Silent Complicity.
CHALLENGE... Willian Ecenbarger. Heroes do NOT conceal the actions of Villains.
I might raise the question of the investigative journalist who seems to have switched sides. It would seem that William Ecenbarger, as a NON_LAWYER aware of the lawyers MANDATE OF CONFIDENTIALITY pursuant to Rule 1.6 of the Rules of Professional Conduct, neglects to ever indicate the LAW which silenced the Luzerne County legal community in the face or extreme corruption. Though he is NOT mandated by law to conceal the impact of Rule 1.6, HE DID.
William Ecenbarger now conducts CLE classes for the Bar Association - The Psychology of Secrets.
I excuse Lourdes Rosado, Juvenile Justice Center, for failing to expose the impact of Rule 1.6 Confidentiality in the SILENCE surrounding corruption. As an attorney, she is mandated BY LAW to maintain the 'dirty little secret' of Rule 1.6.
The efforts of the Juvenile Justice Center exposed that the failure of the judiciary to recognize the damage they have caused extends to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court. It was the PA Supreme Court who enacted Rule 1.6. An act of unconstitutional magnitude which was made irreversible at the time it was enacted. Lawyers cannot reveal the damage caused by the law. Two non-lawyers could. AND, Healy and Krautheim did.
Villain... Interbranch Commission on Juvenile Justice - The commission failed to see themselves among “those who knew but failed to speak; those who saw but failed to act.” The commission fails to address their silence, while misdirecting blame to include public officials and private citizens who did speak and were ignored; who did act and were dismissed.
THE COMMISSION failed to indicate any impact of Rule 1.6 Confidentiality of information.

Silence, inaction, inexperience, fear of retaliation. Greed, ambition, carelessness. MAYBE.
BUT, There was no ignorance of the law requiring CONFIDENTIALITY… the Commission's failure to act was deliberate and deceptive and calculating.
BTW, Rule 1.6 has a far broader effect than Attorney-Client Privilege. The mandate of confidentiality extends beyond a lawyers death.
Rule 1.6 mandates an obligation to maintain confidentiality where information
- would affect the integrity of the judiciary, or
- would reveal the misconduct of the lawyers office, or
- would expose individual liability of the lawyer, or
- would negatively impact their client.
Government lawyers are unsure of WHO their client even is…
- Public
- Government as a whole
- Branch of government in which employed
- Particular agency or department
- Responsible officers who make decisions with an agency or department.
Rule 1.6 concealed the single point of failure… itself.
THE COMMISSION CONCEALED THAT BIT OF INFORMATION.
- As a result, they took no true step towards preventing another scandal.
- They failed to protect the people.
- They failed to protect the judiciary from further corruption.
Far more frightening, these lawyers now know how to do it... and how to get away with it.
Ciavarella and Coonahan went to jail ONLY BECAUSE they were inept at money laundering.
