Court Watch
X ^ | April 12, 2026 | JohnyFSE

Posted on 04/12/2026 1:15:07 PM PDT by Pontiac

I built http://CourtWatch.us β€” a free public database for American citizens who deserve safer communities. You can track which judges released defendants who then got rearrested, skipped court, or violated their release conditions. All public records. All free.

I started with Orange County FL and will be expanding to all 67 Florida counties and eventually every state in the country. This first batch of info is from 2024 and since public reports are released in March/April for the previous year, data is behind. But I wanted to see if this is plausible. After adding 2024,I'll add 2025 and then figure out how to get real-time-data uploaded. It's in beta β€” would love to know what you think πŸ‘‡ Numbers don't lie, but criminals do.

You're seeing the beta version of our site. We're a small, citizen-built team and we wanted to get this into the public's hands as quickly as possible to start holding judges accountable.

Right now we cover Orange County, FL with 2024 data. We're actively expanding to all 67 Florida counties and eventually every state in the country. More data is coming β€” and fast. Court Watch

Numbers don't lie, but criminals do.

And, so do their judicial enablers !

Wow ... Elon has replied to/reposted your tweet ... getting LOTS of attention/views, now. CONGRATS!!!

This is great.

At least those judges who release violent criminals who go on to hurt more people will be publicly shamed!

Nick Shirley, Kevin Sorbo, Sidney Powell, Crowdsource, Ann Vandersteel to name a few of the respondents.

MANY replies are asking for this group to investigate their own County Judges!

It’s had over 14M views, so far.

I love it.

I wish I could take credit, but it is not my tweet.

I just thought that FR would want to follow this.

I am hoping that having light shown on the judicial cockroaches will scare them into reforming their ways but I doubt that the judges who release murderers to continue killing will do so.

These people are ideologues that believe that White Devils must be punished.

The only way to stop their abuses is to remove them which is extremely difficult.

Even in places like Ohio where judges are elected, it is rare that a judge is replaced.
