Alton Maddox: The Struggle Continues for Alton Maddox
The endless list of attorneys who were convicted of engaging in felonious conduct and who have been reinstated to the practice of law include Albert Pirro, husband of former Westchester County District Attorney Jeanine Pirro; Sol Wachtler, former Chief Judge of the New York Court of Appeals; and Michael Dowd, a friend of the Cuomo family.... Three of the four Black attorneys in the Central Park 6 were disbarred. The other attorney was suspended from the practice of law. Disbarred attorney Lynne Stewart was sentenced to prison. She represented the late Adam Abdul-Hakim and Sheik Abdel Rahman.
