A three-book series / Justin A. Tahai
TREASONOUSCOWARDS
The institutions. The profession.
The children left with the consequences.
Book One / The Institutions
THE LEGAL RACKET
Maine’s Criminal Administration
When the process keeps moving, but the people remain trapped.
The Legal Racket turns its attention to the machinery of administration: authority, fees, compliance, delay, and the question of whom the system ultimately serves.
Its central challenge is not whether an institution can explain its procedures. It is whether those procedures deliver the protection, fairness, and accountability invoked to justify them.
Another filing. Another fee. Another demand for compliance.
At what point does administering a case become more important than resolving the harm?
Book Two / The Profession
DUTIES OF CANDOR
Professional Ethics in an Industry Built to Argue Around the Truth
The ability to defend a position is not the same as the integrity to examine it.
Duties of Candor confronts the divide between professional ethics and professional maneuvering — between addressing the substance of a question and producing another argument that leaves it unanswered.
Truth. Facts. Honesty. Accountability. Justice.
The words are familiar. This book asks what remains of them when the performance of professionalism becomes more important than the obligations behind it.
When the truth becomes inconvenient, what does professional responsibility actually require?
Book Three / The Children
INSIDIOUS IGNORANCE
How Selfish Adults Teach Children to Hate Half of Themselves
Children should not have to inherit an adult’s hostility to prove their loyalty.
Insidious Ignorance brings the series to its most personal subject: children caught between adult grievances, competing narratives, and demands they should never have to carry.
Its focus is the difference between protecting a child and recruiting a child into a conflict — between nurturing an independent person and rewarding that person for repeating someone else’s resentment.
A child’s love should not be treated as evidence of betrayal. Their identity should not become territory for adults to claim.
The question is not which adult wins. It is what the child is being taught to lose.
TREASONOUS COWARDS / Justin A. Tahai
Authority is not accountability.
An argument is not an answer.
A child is not a bargaining chip.
The series presents the author’s criticism and arguments. Book titles, cover imagery, and interpretations are not substitutes for findings in the underlying record. Read the work, examine the evidence, and reach your own conclusions.
