DOUGLAS COUNTY, Ga. — A Douglas County judge was arrested at an Atlanta nightclub early Thursday morning, according to Fulton County Jail records.
Douglas County Judge Christina Peterson was charged with simple battery victim against a police officer at the Red Martini Restaurant and Lounge on Peachtree Street.
A police report said an off-duty Atlanta police officer was working at the bar when he saw a woman who was crying.
While the officer tried to speak with the woman, he was struck on the head by Peterson, according to an arrest report. It is unclear whether Peterson knew the woman who was crying.
Peterson did not identify herself and appeared to be under the influence, according to the arrest report.
Channel 2 Action News called Peterson’s office and was told that she was not in for work on Thursday.
Petersen was listed as having been released from the jail as of Thursday afternoon.

They so deserve it. They refused to police themselves.
Funny when the headline appeared I knew exactly who the perp would be. Some people just can’t survive in a cilized society.
Form of reparations don-cha-no.
Of course they will be dropped. Fanny ain’t gonna proscute a sistah judge.
Should there be reparations for affirmative action?
Douglas County’s probate judge was ousted by voters in Tuesday’s Democratic primary while facing removal from the bench as punishment for 30 ethics charges stemming from her first term in office.
Christina Peterson received just under 35% of the 14,041 votes counted in her election race against challenger Valerie Vie, a Douglasville attorney. There were no Republican candidates for Peterson’s seat, meaning Vie will run unopposed in the November general election.
This is a judge in Georgia? She should be prosecuted.
