High Court Suspends Judge Accused of Bilking His Aunt
A Brooklyn judge who was charged with bilking an elderly aunt of $163,000 was suspended with pay on Friday by the state's highest court.
The Court of Appeals ruled unanimously to suspend the judge, Michael J. Garson of State Supreme Court in Brooklyn. Mr. Garson is accused of taking $163,000 from an aunt, who is now 94, when he held her power of attorney.

Anybody want guess which political party this asshole identifies with?

1. Can't get article
But, who cares what party? Wrong is wrong. That is what is missing from what is going on in this country. Judge screws up, throw him/her out. Plenty more where they came from, right?

2. The article doesn't say. How do you know?
What is disgusting, however, regardless, is that the guy doesn't even have to work now and he still gets paid.
