McConnell Links Obama Same-Sex Crime Scenes to Hull House Pedophile Trap
“[Spoliation inference that Mrs. Clegg’s erstwhile DLA Piper associates have structured Oneworld Management to camouflage child-sex tourism by booking Sabre (?) travel arrangements for pedophile pimps and ‘blackmailable’ victims under cover of pro bono work for charity] Child sex tourism is a growing "industry" in the United States and around the world, and is considered one of the most heinous crimes in which an individual can engage. Because other countries have fewer laws regarding child pornography and child sex crimes, sex tourism becomes a popular escape for pedophiles in the United States. Essentially, child sex tourism involves booking travel arrangements for individuals who wish to travel to other countries to engage in sexual activities with minors. These crimes usually involves a "prostitution ring" involving travel agents and even customs officials who facilitate the transport of both adults and children from one country to another. According to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, more than 100,000 children in Sri Lanka are enslaved in brothels for the purpose of furthering the child sex tourism industry, while an additional 5,000 work the streets in areas where tourist traffic is high. Other countries, such as China, Cambodia, Taiwan and India, are prime destinations for American pedophiles.”

Award Recognizes Firm’s Juvenile Justice Project and Array of Pro Bono Work
(CHICAGO, Illinois) April 18, 2005 – DLA Piper Rudnick Gray Cary US LLP’s Chicago office will receive the Illinois State Bar Association’s 2004-2005 John C. McAndrews Pro Bono Service Award, the law firm has announced.
This prestigious honor, given by the ISBA Standing Committee on Delivery of Legal Services, recognizes lawyers’ meritorious effort in delivering pro bono legal services. DLA Piper is being honored for its large-scale, long-term, innovative pro bono works, in particular the firm’s signature Juvenile Justice Project, launched in summer 2004.
"We are deeply honored to learn that the ISBA is recognizing us with this notable award," said Allen Ginsburg, managing partner of DLA Piper’s Chicago office. "Here in Illinois, the firm has worked hard to give back, performing pro bono work that reaches widely into the community and that is now reaching into the global community as well."
DLA Piper has been deeply involved in pro bono work for many years, Ginsburg noted. But, he continued, "A couple of years ago we asked ourselves, ‘What pro bono work can we do that takes advantage of our firm’s large size and our attorneys’ skills?’ We then started looking for ways not just to perpetuate our pro bono commitment but to expand it, not only in hours but in human impact.
"Without in any way reducing our ongoing efforts, many of which are carried out by individual lawyers for individual beneficiaries, we determined to put in place major pro bono projects that would help the unrepresented on a large scale and improve public policy in the long term for large numbers of those in need. This is especially true for the Juvenile Justice Project, which we launched last summer here in Chicago."”

“13 OCT 2006 DLA Piper names Anne Geraghty Pro Bono Manager in Chicago NEW POSITION CREATED TO MANAGE NATIONAL AND CHICAGO PRO BONO PROGRAMS PRESS RELEASE (CHICAGO) - DLA Piper US LLP announced that Anne Geraghty has been named Pro Bono Manager in the firm's Chicago office. In the newly created position, Anne will assist with national pro bono programs and oversee the operations of the Chicago office's pro bono efforts, including its signature Juvenile Justice Project. Through the Juvenile Justice Project, currently in its third year, attorneys and staff have handled 78 cases for Chicagoland youth ensnared in the Cook County Juvenile Court system. More than 80 attorneys and staff from the Chicago office have donated upward of 15,000 hours to this project.
"The pro bono program in our Chicago office has been evolving and advancing rapidly, and we are pleased to have Anne join the firm and become a part of that," said Elizabeth Dewey, firmwide Pro Bono Partner at DLA Piper. "Her long-standing dedication and commitment to the pro bono community will bolster the program tremendously."
"I feel very fortunate to be joining the firm in this new and important role," said Geraghty. "I am extremely impressed with DLA Piper's strong pro bono platform. The firm's existing projects in Chicago and throughout the U.S., as well as its unparalleled global pro bono initiative, New Perimeter, reflect a unique desire to address important causes wherever there is a need, and I am proud to a part of such an organization."
Geraghty has been an active participant in the pro bono community, and more specifically in the juvenile justice community, for several years. During law school, she worked as a research assistant for Professor Wallace J. Mlyniec at the Georgetown University Law Center. In this capacity, she conducted a study comparing the lives of children in adult prisons to those of children in juvenile facilities and public schools and co-authored an article with Professor Mlyniec on the topic of unified family courts.
Through Georgetown's Juvenile Justice Clinic, she also spent a year representing individuals charged in Washington, D.C.'s juvenile courts. Prior to attending law school, she was the grants manager and consultant for the American Bar Association's Juvenile Justice Center, where she founded a nationwide network of law students interested in juvenile justice careers.
In 2005 alone, DLA Piper lawyers spent more than 100,000 hours on pro bono and civic activities. DLA Piper's pro bono program, which is led by a full-time partner and three pro bono managers, administers pro bono programs ranging from local legal rights and support programs to national and international signature projects that focus on, among other subjects, human rights, community progress, justice and gender equality, and hunger relief.
Before joining DLA Piper, Geraghty was a litigation associate at Wilmer Cutler Pickering Hale and Dorr, LLP, where, in addition to her regular practice, she maintained a strong focus on pro bono work. Most recently, Geraghty represented a young Iraq war veteran who had been convicted of second-degree murder in his federal sentencing and appeal, as well as a prisoner on Maryland's death row who challenged that state's lethal injection procedures as cruel and unusual.
Geraghty earned a J.D. magna cum laude from Georgetown University Law Center and a B.S. from the University of Wisconsin.
