While Pennsylvannia is facing a budget deficit of $4 billion or more, they say that adultBasic is really expensive.

Judge Ciavarella: Guilty Or Not?

I am really so glad to hear this. This is a not so good image what the former judge is trying to project. This "kids for cash" scheme is definitely not a good example to other judges as well. They are supposed to be the defender of truth and the laws, and not the doers against it. It's good that as early as now, they already were able to stop this. I hope that former Luzerne County Judge Mark Ciavarella will be able to pay for whatever that he did.
