Thousands of U.S. judges who broke laws or oaths remained on the bench

In the past dozen years, state and local judges have repeatedly escaped public accountability for misdeeds that have victimized thousands. Nine of 10 kept their jobs, a Reuters investigation found – including an Alabama judge who unlawfully jailed hundreds of poor people, many of them Black, over traffic fines. By MICHAEL BERENS and JOHN SHIFFMAN in MONTGOMERY, ALABAMA Filed June 30, 2020, noon GMT Judge Les Hayes once sentenced a single mother to 496 days behind bars for failing to pay traffic tickets. The sentence was so stiff it exceeded the jail time Alabama allows for negligent homicide. Marquita Johnson, who was locked up in April 2012, says the impact of her time in jail endures today. Johnson’s three children were cast into foster care while she was incarcerated. One daughter was molested, state records show. Another was physically abused. “Judge Hayes took away my life and didn’t care how my children suffered,” said Johnson, now 36. “My girls will never be the same.” Fellow inmates found her sentence hard to believe. “They had a nickname for me: The Woman with All the Days,” Johnson said. “That’s what they called me: The Woman with All the Days. There were people who had committed real crimes who got out before me.” In 2016, the state agency that oversees judges charged Hayes with violating Alabama’s code of judicial conduct. According to the Judicial Inquiry Commission, Hayes broke state and federal laws by jailing Johnson and hundreds of other Montgomery residents too poor to pay fines. Among those jailed: a plumber struggling to make rent, a mother who skipped meals to cover the medical bills of her disabled son, and a hotel housekeeper working her way through college. Hayes, a judge since 2000,… Read More

Your “BAR” Attorney Is A Fraud

Any Judge, government agent, or bureaucrat who has sworn to uphold the Constitution of the United States – who is violating that oath – is Guilty of Treason. The Penalty is still DEATH BY HANGING.

To do this he determined to use the banks, both of the United States and of England, as one method. But to underpin his efforts, he needed lawyers or attorneys here in the ‘colonies’ to make it all happen. The ‘legal’ ramifications of how things had to be brought about had become an important issue to England ever since the days of the Magna Carta. Lawyers, known more prominently as “BARristers”, had arisen to great power in England since the days of the old knights. But the battle by these heirs of knighthood this time was forged against good and not evil, for this new thing that the People in America were calling “freedom” was a dangerous consideration for a King. King George needed the lawyers or attorneys over in the Colonies to be members, or Esquires, of England’s International BAR Association, the only BAR association in the world, headquartered right in good old London town and under his own… Read More
