For 48 years, a key focus of Sherman Skolnick's investigative reporting was the rampant judicial corruption in the courts of law in U.S.A., specifically in Chicago and in the U.S. Supreme Court in Washington, D. C.

Judges on the take, some of them termed "banksters” or "banker- judges", drew the attention not only of Skolnick’s seasoned Jewish humor but also of his relentless and feared public exposure mechanisms.

The robed mafiosi had him in jail eight times during his long life but could never stick anything of substance on him.

Twenty judges and over forty attorneys went behind bars, from 1969 to 1993 alone, through America’s leading judge-buster who has now passed on.

Skolnick started in his late twenties using his superb mental powers and writing skills as reflected in his reporting on judicial and political corruption.

Since 1958 he was a court reformer.

In 1963 he founded the Citizen’s Committee to Clean Up the Courts, a public interest group researching and disclosing certain instances of judicial bribery and political murders.
