A Texas judge has been suspended amid accusations that she sexted in the courtroom, used her bailiff to buy drugs, hired prostitutes and once brought home marijuana seized from a defendant.
..............................................................
Hilary H. Green’s lawyer called the ruling by the state Supreme Court “frustrating and surprising.” He pointed out that many of the accusations had long been public, and yet voters overwhelmingly reelected Green as a Harris County justice of the peace.
While the judge claimed her husband had cheated on her and concealed assets, according to the paper, Ronald Green called his wife a drug addict who “operates daily with impaired judgment as evidenced by her presiding over cases in which she has ongoing sexual relationships with litigants and witnesses.”
As the Texas Commission on Judicial Conduct would later explain, those accusations prompted it to file a formal complaint against the judge — the first of several that informed its 316-page recommendation to suspend her this year.
More allegations came from Claude Barnes, whom Green acknowledged as her ex-lover — though she denied his testimony that they had hired prostitutes for threesomes.
While she denied hiring prostitutes, Green admitted to abusing drugs “almost every night” for several years, according to court records.
Once she paid her bailiff to get them, she wrote; sometimes she went herself — sometimes to “a gas station on the southwest side of Houston.”

The commission briefly questioned Green in person in February.
“I’m just thinking that you’re the judge and here you are abusing drugs,” an interrogator told her. “Judging these people for the crimes that they have committed, and yet you were committing that same crime.”
“Yes, ma’am,” the judge replied.
The Is She Hot question should have been in the title..that grabs more eyeballs :o
Her sex life is her own business, though. Her ex seems small-minded and petty.

I'd agree, if not for the mention that she was sleeping with people related to cases. That's a major conflict of interest, which is not good.

Really, the craziest thing about this story isn't all the messed up shit she did. It's this:

You are talking about a country that voted in a man with three bankruptcies, who dodged the draft, and openly and proudly admitted to sexual assault. Are you really shocked that a judge who smokes pot and has affairs would get elected? She seems pretty tame by comparison.
It's a woman? What a twist!
