But, what exactly does a magistrate do? Who are they? And how are they recruited and trained?
Are they out-of-touch and unrepresentative of society in 2020? Or are magistrates still fit for purpose with a role to play in today's increasingly sophisticated and complex judicial system?
With remarkable candour and openness plus a healthy helping of humour The Secret Magistrate takes the reader on an eye-opening, behind-the-scenes tour of a year in the life of an inner-city magistrate warts and all.
Chapters describe a wide variety of intriguing cases and bizarre characters such as:
The disqualified driver who drove away from court, The Sunbed Pervert, and to be overlooked at your peril Fifi the Attack Chihuahua!
A book for all those interested in the Criminal Justice System, in the workings of the courts, and in those who serve our communities or who enjoy true stories of the best and worst of human nature.
"Hopefully, I might even persuade some of those reading this book to consider becoming magistrates themselves. Come and read about justice at the sharp end arise 'The Secret Magistrate'."
The Secret Magistrate will be donating all their royalties to charity.
