CRAIGHEAD, ANTHONY J.
BPR # 015412
August 18, 1998
Public censure on August 18, 1998. While running as candidate for Judge of the Circuit Court,
he published campaign advertisements in newspapers and on the radio which made statements
and assertions regarding prior decisions and/or opinions made by his opponent, the incumbent
judge, in criminal cases. These assertions were found by the Board to misrepresent and/or create
false and misleading impressions regarding those decisions. Additionally, the Board found he
had made false statements that the records of certain juvenile matters were subject to review by
the public, when they were not.
