A Different Cadence is a story about the people the author has encountered as clients, judges and witnesses. It is not a story about the lawyer but about the fascinating characters he has known and represented in more than thirty years of practice. There are pimps, whores, gamblers and killers. There are witches and mental patients in chains. There are judges who take the time to care; the murder of Rocky and Curly. James Parks on trial for killing his wife's lover; a gambler's trial; and two young men accused of statutory rape on trial for their lives. It tells the story of a retired Army sergeant, locked away in St. Elizabeths Mental Hospital without due process of law. Then there is death on Grapevine Mountain, which remains a mystery today. Some are innocent, ground up in the machinery of the system. Others are not so innocent. Guilty or innocent, their stories are fascinating. This book illustrates the contrast in the legal profession of yesterday, when lawyers represented people and their problems, as opposed to today's practice with mega firms and the emphasis on the 'Billable Hour.'
