Former state Sen. Cheryl Jacques, now a $97,500-a-year judge with the state Department of Industrial Accidents, is being hauled into an ethics hearing to answer an accusation that she used her job in a bid to help a brother-in-law with his dental bill.

The Ethics Commission today stated a public hearing will be held within 90 days so Jacques can respond to the allegations.

The board issued an Order to Show Cause alleging Jacques violated the state conflict-of-interest law “by invoking her position as a judge when she contacted a dental office on her brother-in-law’s behalf and demanded that the dental office write off the balance of the bill received by her brother-in-law.”

"Yes, she's a Dem."

Democrats never learn. They just get away with it . . . or . . . sometimes not so much.

Republicans, on the other hand . . . occasionally know better.

Ethics hearing, my butt! This MUST be illegal. When are we going to get the nerve to throw these sons of bitches into jail where they belong instead of makin nice-nice and calling it a breach of ethics?

I agree. This is criminal. Off to jail with her.

We should issue the death penalty for corrupt law enforcement officials, including judges.
