 Wabash Magazine: Feature
After a tour on active duty in the Army, Kendall began work as a civil rights lawyer with the NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund in 1973 and litigated several anti-capital punishment cases.
Kendall is known as a voracious reader and has been dubbed the “busiest” and “smartest” lawyer in Washington.
In a 1979 speech at Wabash, a youthful Kendall argued that Americans only put up with the death penalty because it was done under a “cloak of secrecy.” He also predicted that, by the turn of the century, the death penalty would be abolished on moral grounds.

 COURTTV.COM - TOP NEWS - Green River case revives questions about Washington's death penalty
Washington's death penalty statute, adopted in 1981, was closely modeled on Georgia's law, which has a proportionality provision. Although the U.S. Supreme Court urged, but did not require, states to include proportionality in their death penalty laws, most states with capital punishment have some sort of proportionality review.
In Washington, proportionality requires that, during an automatic appeal, the state Supreme Court consider whether execution is "excessive or disproportionate" with respect to penalties in similar cases.
The Green River case has already set cost records in King County, with a $12 million price tag over the last two years alone. A death penalty trial for Ridgway would likely be one of the longest and most complex in U.S. history.
