10-11-03 Historic perspective on the scope of judicial corruption in the US Robber Baron Revival Era? // Perspectiva histórica sobre el alcance de la corrupción judicial en los EE.UU. Robber Baron Revival Era?


Worldwide corruption, per Transparency International, a US based organization, which routinely fails to report on corruption in the United States.


For publication in an international law journal, I am seeking peer-reviewed papers, as reference, in order to place the level of judicial corruption today in historic perspective.
The only good paper that I have found so far was one reviewing corruption of the clerks of the US court. [1] Corruption of the clerks is claimed to be central to corruption of the courts today as well, and I claim that corruption of the clerks had to reflect misprision and corruption by judges during the same periods as well.  Therefore, periods when corruption of the clerks was rampant, were likely to also be periods of rampant corruption of the judiciary. 
However, I would rather have a reference to historic review of judicial corruption in the United States.
Any help would be appreciated.
