During especially the last five years, judicial corruption has been on full display in Georgia, and especially in Fulton County. The election fraud cases come to mind as pristine examples that captured the nation's attention, where 'lack of standing' was misused to prevent election fraud accountability.
A state judicial body says a Fulton County Superior Court judge should be removed from her position for cause.
Judge Shermela Williams illegally jailed a witness, lied during testimony, and more, according to a three-judge panel from the Judicial Qualifications Commission which accused Williams of more than 30 counts of misconduct, reported WSB.
They say they had little option but to seek the ultimate sanction after they said Williams violated multiple rules stretching back years, including finding that she lied on the stand.
“Given the level of untruthful testimony Judge Williams offered throughout, we are left with little option but to seek the ultimate sanction of removal. A judge that cannot be trusted to tell the truth cannot be trusted to remain in office.”
Besides long wait times for a ruling, the JQC found that Judge Williams had improper ex parte conversations with one person about the case because they were sorority sisters. In another case, the JQC found she improperly helped a family member, added WSB.
The recommendation will go to the Georgia Supreme Court, where they can accept the recommendation, reject it, or provide their own decision.
