Roadways to Justice: Reforming the Criminal Justice System Kindle Edition

by Ronald H. Clark (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.5 out of 5 stars (28)
America’s criminal justice system is grappling with multiple issues – police officer-involved deaths and violence; mass incarceration; racial, gender, and sexual orientation bias; the death penalty; public corruption; juvenile justice; disparate sentencing; and the ill effects of Three Strikes laws. These and other issues are examined through the lens of the author’s experience as both a career prosecutor and educator of prosecutors.



Roadways to Justice tells remarkable stories of selected cases, trials, and, above all else, quests for justice. The book argues that the criminal justice system can be changed, and it offers inspiration, practical solutions, and roadmaps for how to reform that system. This volume is ideal for anyone interested in understanding how the criminal justice system really works, and it is an indispensable handbook for the new wave of lawyers, lawmakers, and others who want to improve it.



Author Ronald H. Clark was a career prosecutor in King County, Washington, Senior Training Counsel at the National Advocacy Center in Columbia, South Carolina where state and local prosecutors were trained, and he is currently a Distinguished Practitioner in Residence at Seattle University Law School, where he teaches trial advocacy, pretrial advocacy, essential lawyering skills, and visual litigation and technology. With an insider’s perspective, Clark reflects on fifty-plus-years of struggles to reform the criminal justice system.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Criminal justice system capable of change
    Reviewed in the United States on September 3, 2021
    Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
    For those who doubt the criminal justice hasn’t changed for eons, this book is a must read. The author, a nationally known former prosecutor and educator, outlines through personal experience how the system has evolved in the last 40 years. He paints a picture of how the public prosecutor’s office has played a leadership role in this evolution, from dealing with public corruption, the death penalty and juvenile justice to providing training on a national level to new prosecutors.
    Mr. Clark’s use of actual events and cases in which he was involved brings home how the system can be steered by prosecutors dedicated to doing the right thing.

    5.0 out of 5 stars An Important Read!
    Reviewed in the United States on July 24, 2021
    Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
    A book written with wonderful clarity, ROADWAYS TO JUSTICE, by Ronald H. Clark, recounts the coming of age of a Pacific Northwest prosecutor, and later trainer of prosecutors, and his resolve throughout his career to bring greater fairness to the criminal justice system. As a one-time English teacher, with no legal training, I especially appreciated the chapter called "Juvenile Justice," which tells of today's movement away from oppression to help juvenile offenders on the path to success, by providing proper treatment, supervision, and a caring environment.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Currently Unsure? American Law Has Foundation
    Reviewed in the United States on July 18, 2021
    Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
    Legal foundation and administration can be technical and confusing, It is under attack as we speak and always subject to misinformation and misinterpretation. Like the Bible, Law has to evolve to mitigate current injustices and interpret and anticipate societal change. Mr. Clark's recent work seeks to inform and bring rational justification to a system under attack from self-serving and often political adversaries.

    The book is well written and discusses the realities of the prosecution world. A book all lawyers and prosecutors should read and a great way for the public to get information about a process that occurs daily but few really understand.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A thoughtful and fascinating look into the mind of a prosecutor.
    Reviewed in the United States on July 7, 2021
    Format: Paperback
    I was actually given this book by the author who also happens to teach trial practice to lawyers, so let me assure you, this is an experienced practitioner who knows how to keep your interest. In Ron Clark's long career he has prosecuted or helped to prosecute crimes ranging from the ordinary to the bizarre. This book not only chronicles his long and fascinating career, but also gives insight into the mind of a prosecuting attorney. Clark also speaks to the inequities of the system from the inside, showing how even well intentioned prosecutors can find themselves forced to act on laws they find unjust. Overall, it is a unique and rewarding read.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Highly recommend!
    Reviewed in the United States on July 19, 2021
    Format: Kindle
    Roadways to Justice is a fascinating read and incredibly enlightening for a lay-person such as myself. Ron shares insights from his amazing career and gives a wonderful glimpse into the work of seeking justice. I have no legal experience and still found this book so interesting I didn't want to put it down. Each time Ron would move on to another topic, I would think, "No, not yet! I want more!" Spoiler alert: this book may forever change the way you watch dramatic courtroom scenes in movies and television. Now I know those prosecutors are breaking the rules right and left!
