John may be our most well-educated and broadly-experienced lawyer. He certainly holds more degrees and more distinguished teaching awards than anyone we have managed to attract. While continuing to serve as an active member of the political science faculty at Arizona State and teaching on an adjunct basis at the ASU College of Law, John has developed a vital criminal defense and corporate internal investigation practice. He has served as President of Arizona Attorneys for Criminal Justice -- the statewide criminal defense organization -- and has provided teaching services to Arizona's judges through the Arizona Judicial College. John also finds time to write articles on a broad range of criminal and constitutional law topics. Most recently he served as the reporter for a national program on wrongful convictions sponsored by the American Judicature Society on whose Board he serves. His wife, Stacey, and his daughter, Alexandra, still claim to see him occasionally.
John is currently on medical leave.
