I think I saw that movie

When a judge continuously steps outside the law that he’s paid to oversee, it’s no surprise that he’s treated like an outlaw.

[No name given]

Indeed.

[anton]

Everyone saww that coming. the sheriff’s daughter was in the game.

[alstewartfan]

Democrat?

[NFHale]

Gee… a crooked judge getting some justice… That’s a shame.

Im tired of the " innocent until proven guilty" rules, if you shoot a man in cold blood, walk out into the courtroom and say, I killed that SOB.

There's no "alleged" killing. Its homicide and we know who was involved.

Now its up to the court to decide murder, manslaughter, insanity, momentary,loss of reason, etc.

karmelo Anthony didn't allegedly kill, he came right out and told the officers he did it. Now hes guilty of homicide, was it manslaughter, voluntary, involuntary, reckless, self defensr, or capital murder?

Maybe Massie can have a democrat help him investigate this sex business... WE need to see this judge's list of Johns.

Steve Beshear, more Democrat scum.

Scott Adams was saying this morning that the Democrat Party is a criminal operation.

What is he turns out to be more moral than many other judges across the country who haven’t been caught yet?

[waterhill]

“Tank” with James Garner?

[Zathras]

This might be the KT connection that kept Turtle in power for so long.
Wouldn’t surprise me.

[GOPJ]

We can assume ‘da Judge’ was a democrat...

[delchiante]

This was one of those stories that screamed for more info back when it occurred.

Ah, Kentucky.

[Biblebelter]

My original take was that the Judge had to know what his bailiff was doing in his chambers.

I thought the judge might be trying to get the sheriff to take the whole fall and leave him out of it.

I thought the phone contact between judge and the daughter may have been intimidation.

Remember after the shooting the sheriff didn’t say much other than “they” were going after his family.

Those deemed paranoid often have a valid reason for being paranoid.

[Alas Babylon!]

Walking Tall? Not the crappy Rock remake, the original with Joe Don Baker.
