Hon. Earl H. Carroll

Judge Carroll was an inspiration to me. He expected that lawyers—whether prosecutors or defense lawyers—in criminal case had an obligation to be prepared, knowledgeable about the law, and compassionate. Even within the adversarial system that so often obscures the human issues of cases, Judge Carroll knew that lives were affected and that lawyers should never forget that. He was a humanitarian, a man of faith, and a fantastic scholar and teacher.

Working for the Federal Bureau of Prisons as the Community Corrections Manager for Arizona and the Southern District of California from 1992 to 2005 I got to know and work with Judge Carroll. He was tough but always a courteous Judge who challenged me to do my best. I greatly appreciated his guidance and mentoring. He always showed my staff and I the greatest respect and appreciated our service to the court. I will never forget him.
