1) PLAYBOY ARTICLE – The August 2002 edition of Playboy magazine recognized attorney Ronald D. Hedding as an “ace criminal defense attorney” when referring to him in relation to a sensational deadly callgirl murder case. Mr. Hedding represented an architect accused of killing his girlfriend’s madam. The case involved, among other things, an organized Russian prostitution ring that was bringing young women to America and enslaving them into prostitution to pay for their passage. Mr. Hedding’s client was alleged to have become romantically involved with one of the young woman and the prosecution charged that he killed the woman’s madam.
