DETROIT — A spokesman says a Michigan judge wasn’t aware of a sex offender’s criminal background when he granted the man joint legal custody of a child born to a woman who said the man raped her when she was 12.

Michigan Supreme Court spokesman John Nevin told The Associated Press on Wednesday that Sanilac County Judge Gregory Ross didn’t know 27-year-old Christopher Mirasolo had two criminal sexual conduct convictions, including one concerning the woman.

Like Steve Martin's plan on how to be a millionaire. First, earn a million dollars, then don't pay tax on it. When they haul you into tax court, tell the judge, "I forgot."

So your saying he really studies the merits of these cases before making a decision yes ?

Wondered how many other people got screwed by this judges decisions.

Lots of Judges don’t read what they are supposed to then make a ruling. That should get them fired. But who fires a judge?

Admissions of gross incompetence and negligence should be no more acceptable than admissions of gross criminality and corruption.

It’s not the judges job to rule on anything other than what’s presented to him by the lawyers in court. Judges and juries are not expected to do independent investigations

if this gains legs, all of his rulings might be in jeopardy.

Well, in an ethical world those rulings would be. . .
