with the information after the inaction of the local police, with cops tracking her phone and
claiming she was interfering with a vice investigation

A Las Vegas judge and mother of three killed herself a year after leaving her position to avoid a complicated ethics probe that began over what she said was her attempt to save her daughter from prostitution.
Melanie Andress-Tobiasson, 53, who stepped down as a Justice of the Peace before a hearing regarding her ethics investigation, was reportedly found dead by suicide Friday, 8NewsNow reported. The outlet did not provide details about how she died.
The judge charged that pimps were “targeting the daughters of judges and law enforcement” to recruit them into prostitution.
Andress-Tobiasson was being investigated by Nevada’s Judicial Discipline Commission for almost two years before she agreed to resign in 2021.
Her problems began when her daughter Sarah, then 16, started working at a clothing store that Andress-Tobiasson claimed was a front for criminal activities and tried to stop it, first by reporting the issue to the police, the Daily Mail reported. She said the store, Top Knotch, was involved with prostitution and trying to recruit her daughter.
She called out Las Vegas cops for ignoring information about the alleged sex trafficking at the store. She claimed that the store was an unlicensed, underage nightclub and added that she was “terrified” of Shane Valentine, who ran the store at the time.

democrat or republican?
with the hyphen in her name I’ll assume she was a democrat....but I’ve been wrong before.
More weaponization of the criminal elements against ordinary citizens via the Justice system.
Soros is a bad, bad cat.
non partisan election .
the huge invasion of foreign Chinese from Cali flipped NV to Lefty Dem .
Two questions:
1. Where is the judge’s husband/girl’s father?
2. Do we know it was a suicide?
“What a mess.”
You can say that again. I hope her daughter avoids the life her mother was trying to save her from.
Btw...was it really necessary to add “with a pool” at the end of the story? Maybe that was where she was found?
Does not sound like suicide...the article does not line out anything that sounds like corruption on her part,sounds like a coverup of something the Clinton’s would be or like to be involved in. 🤔
If she was a Republican it would have been made clear in the first sentence.
Well, her suicide will keep her daughter from being a prostitute now. Problem solved.
Moving away from LV or helping the daughter get another job somewhere else wouldn’t work? Woman doesn’t seem to be very bright but at least can do this one thing as well as men. She really came through for her daughter.
The vaccine strike again
soros is more like a demon soldier of satan if you ask me
NV has had a couple cases of clinton-syndrome lately to people who were “on to something”
like that reporter last year.......
Nevada has had corrupt politicians for a long time going back to Senator Geary!!
“If she was a Republican it would have been made clear in the first sentence.”
ahhhh, yes, you are right. and the slew of never-ending adjectives to describe her........
Soros has earned a place in the Ceausescu gallery.
Very strange. So make your teen quit working there!!!
Where are the Corleones when you need them????
