Arkansas Judge Resigns After Thousands of Nude Photos of Defendants Found

An Arkansas judge accused of swapping sex for reduced sentences resigned after a state commission said it discovered thousands of photographs from his computer depicting nude male defendants.

In a letter to the Judicial Discipline and Disability Commission, Cross County District Judge Joseph Boeckmann said his resignation was effective immediately, and that he would never again seek a job as a local, county or state employee.

The commission said it was in the process of recovering as many as 4,500 photos.

"They all depict young men, many naked who are in various poses inside the judge's home and outside in his yard," the letter states, adding that many of the men received checks from the judge and had appeared before him as defendants.

"There are numerous photos of naked young men bending over after an apparent paddling," the letter reads. "Please accept this as notice to not destroy [or] otherwise dispose of this paddle."

The commission detailed allegations of several men — including one under 18. The judge would often give defendants his hand-written phone number and have them serve what he described as "community service" at his home.

In another case, Boeckmann reduced a misdemeanor traffic violation and asked the defendant, identified in court documents as W.M., to bring three bags of cans to his home. After the judge offered him a drink — which he declined — "Boeckmann informed W.M. that he needed W.M. to pull 2 cans from the bags and bend over as if he were picking up the cans."

The judge then instructed him "on how to pose and spread his legs farther apart."

In documents filed in February, Boeckmann denied the allegations — saying that the photographs were used "to corroborate participation in community service."

Another faggot, excuse me I mean gay judge, comes out of the feces smelling closet. One of them gets caught while a hundred others remain hidden in the closet. It doesn’t get much worse than a queer in a blackrobe, except maybe a president in the White House.
