Prof. Richard Painter Quoted by Washington Post on Md. Judge Conducting Job Negotiations with Prosecutor's Office During Case

Professor Richard Painter was quoted by the Washington Post on a Maryland judge whose cases are currently being challenged after it was revealed that he was in job negotiations with a local prosecutor's office. Professor Painter commented, “It’s pretty shocking this would happen. I’ve never heard of something like this. He should have recused himself just as soon as he started discussing the job with prosecutors. It’s the only ethically responsible thing to do.”
