At first, Mark Prothero, Defense Attorney for Gary
Ridgway, thought: "This can't be the Green River Killer! He's
too ordinary! He's too small. He's too calm. He's too polite! He
can't possibly have murdered forty-nine women. They can't be
serious! They must have screwed up! I didn't realize then, but I
was right. Gary Ridgway hadn't killed forty-nine women.
He'd killed even more than that."
Soon, Mark Prothero faced the question: "How could you possibly
defend the most prolific serial killer in United States
history, the infamous Green River Killer? If anyone deserved
to be executed for his crimes, didn't he?"
Mark Prothero, co-lead defense attorney who helped save Gary
Ridgway from the death sentence, has heard that question many
times. Now he's written a book that reveals the true, inside
story of exactly how an idealistic public defender, high school
swim coach, husband, and dad could bring himself to spend many
months of close confinement with a man who brutally murdered at
least 75 young women, often in the act of sex. Defending
Gary shows how Prothero could reconcile these monstrous acts
knowing the reality of this unassuming fellow Gary Ridgway, a
mild-mannered, church-going, devoted husband, father, and former
Navy man, with an IQ of around 82 and a longtime job as a truck
painter from Auburn, Washington, near Seattle.
