Autorenporträt
Daryl Kosiak was a high school social studies teacher for two years prior to attending the University of North Dakota School of Law. His first legal position was as an associate, and later a partner in a law firm in North Dakota. He also served as a state prosecutor, responsible for charging, trial, and if necessary, appeal of misdemeanor and felony cases. His next legal position was with the Federal Bureau of Prisons as the institution attorney-advisor at the Federal Medical Center, Rochester, Minnesota, where he dealt with legal issues associated with the medical and mental health care needs of persons in custody, as well as the more mainstream correctional issues. He served fifteen years as Deputy Regional Counsel, and then Regional Counsel, in the Bureau's North Central Region. In this capacity, he supervised the provision of legal services to nineteen federal correctional institutions, including two medical referral centers; the Bureau's high security prisons at Marion (Illinois) and later Florence (Colorado), and issues related to the operation of a death row at the federal facility in Terre Haute, Indiana. His final assignment in a twenty-three year correctional legal career was as Associate General Counsel responsible for legal reviews and litigation concerning the method of carrying out capital punishment. Since retirement, Daryl has taught a number of undergraduate courses related to corrections. He was a presenter at Federal Bureau of Prisons, Department of Justice, and Federal Circuit Judicial Conference meetings on correctional matters. His published work includes material on inmate health care and prosecution of DUI cases.
