I thought Cook County Public “Servants” were criminally insane, not just insane.

Too late
Judge Brim decided to go without any kind of psychiatric treatment of any sort after 15-plus years of these episodes while she was a sitting judge, Gallo said.

Good thing she's not a brain surgeon at government-owned Cook County Hospital.

So, can people with diabetes or heart problems be judges? After all, some of them go loopy too, directly or indirectly from their medical illness.

We have one of these going on in Cleveland. Some Stokes woman who is clearly disturbed has been allowed to sit for years, abusing everyone in the room and rendering psychotic decisions. Only lately has she become so absurd that the bar is forced into doing something. Never let it be said that shysters don't protect their own.
