Howard Gluck prosecuted crimes as a Los Angeles City attorney for decades. Here's one quick story: Summer, 2000 in downtown Los Angeles. Staples Center. Traffic. Protesters and Police clash. Arrests. 60 protesters jailed. They refuse to give up their names, so the police can't process them and won't let them out. Howard Gluck, went to talk with them, in jail, through the night until 4 am. They agreed to reveal their names and Mr. Gluck dropped their misdemeanor charges to infractions, and waived their fines. Everyone got their slice of the pie. Mutual respect won the day.
