WHO JUDGES A JUDGE

A corrupt judge is getting away with murder.

Lacy Stoltz investigates judicial misconduct in Florida. When she meets Greg Meyers, an indicted lawyer, he tells her a secret that will put her in the firing line.

Myers has dirt on a judge in league with organised crime who had forced through legislation to build a casino on a Native American reservation. Anyone who opposed the crooked scheme is dead. Now, Myers wants Lacy to make the judge's crimes public.

But if she does, Lacy will be gambling with her life...
