This was a colossal failure of the judicial system in Pa.
The judge was elected, not appointed, which is common at that level...so the public bears some responsibility for returning this guy to office repeatedly.. It looks like he was on the bench since 1996. But judges are one of the those elections on the ballot that most voters probably ignore.
The greater failure falls on the
Judicial Conduct Board of PA.
Where the hell were they for the last six years?
