In a scathing report, an Illinois judicial oversight board found Judge Robert Adrian “subverted the law and then lied about it under oath to serve his own interests” after reversing his guilty verdict against a suspect. NBC News’ Maggie Vespa reports.

I wonder why that now former judge's eyes kept darting to the left as he was speaking to the journalist. Was there something to the left that kept catching his eye or was he simply unable to look her in the eye as he spouted his bullshit?

Douglas County probate judge charged with felony in Atlanta

ATLANTA - Douglas County Probate Judge Christina Peterson is facing multiple charges after she was arrested early Thursday in Atlanta.

Jail records reveal Peterson is facing felony obstruction of a police officer by using threats or violence and simple battery against a police officer.

According to an Atlanta Police report obtained by FOX 5, an officer working an extra job at the Red Martini Restaurant and Lounge on Peachtree Road in Buckhead went to speak with a woman who was crying in the lounge's valet area early Thursday morning. When the officer approached the woman, he allegedly was hit in the head by Peterson.

The report says that Peterson refused to identify herself and "appeared to be under the influence." After she was taken to jail, Peterson reportedly refused to tell officers her name and instead told them to notify another officer, who shared her identity.

The judge was scheduled to have her first appearance at Fulton County Magistrate Court on Thursday morning, but waived her appearance.



Douglas County probate judge found guilty of ‘systematic incompetence’

By Randy Travis
Published December 5, 2023

DOUGLASVILLE, Ga. - Tears flowed during testimony over whether an embattled Douglas County probate judge should be punished for her actions both on and off the bench. Christina Peterson faces 30 counts of violating the judicial code of conduct, including decisions she made before ever becoming a judge.

In April, Peterson was found guilty by a Judicial Qualifications Commission panel of "systemic incompetence," with the panel recommending that she be removed from office.

The first-time judge has also been the subject of several FOX 5 I-Team investigations since she took office in late 2020.

The panel determined Peterson ignored courthouse rules, abused courthouse personnel, made inappropriate posts on social media and, in repeated cases, failed to do her job.

A hearing panel recommends Douglas County Probate Court Judge Christina Peterson be removed from office.
The decision came after four separate hearings that began in September 2023. She faced 30 counts of misconduct.

In their report, the hearing panel said Peterson was guilty of "systemic incompetence… (Judges) are expected to act in a manner that promotes the integrity and impartiality of the judiciary. Respondent has shown that she cannot — or will not — do so. And so she must go."

Mind you, this is the same district court judge who said doctors who had once read the word "Mifepristone" had standing to challenge the FDA's regs.

And, after today, judges like these don't have to defer to the FDA's conclusions.

Kacsmaryk is a crazy person and now there is nothing stopping him from blocking Mifepristone.

As the Supreme Court takes over America:

- Judges will make millions in “gifts”

- Judges will decide what drugs are safe

- Judges will block ANY environmental protection

- Judges will decide what healthcare women can receive — and whether they live — or die

What's the word for a judge-ocracy. A society ruled by unelected federal judges. Of which, tfg appointed quite a few.

Wayne Co. judge who brought unregistered, loaded gun to DTW faces new charge
New charge involves unregistered firearm, Wayne Co. prosecutor would recuse herself

Posted at 4:13 PM, Jul 01, 2024

ROMULUS, Mich. (WXYZ) — The Wayne County judge who brought a loaded firearm through airport security at Detroit Metro Airport in June could face a new charge over the weapon not being registered.

As 7 News Detroit was first to report in June, Judge Cylenthia Miller brought a .380 caliber Smith & Wesson firearm into the airport on her way to a flight to New York.

According to a police report, the gun “was not artfully concealed” and “there was a round of ammunition chambered.”

The gun, the judge told police, was not registered. Her attorney Todd Perkins says Miller has a valid concealed pistol license

“This is not something to be embarrassed about, I don’t think,” Perkins said Monday. “It’s a mistake that occurred. It’s not even a lapse in judgment.”
