Where's the Judge?

As blogged several times over the past months I have been following a case wherein an African -American teen was the subject of an alleged racially motivated communication by a Judge in the Juvenile Delinquency Court. This case was also covered in depth a couple of months ago in the Metro News where it was reported that the District Attorney in the case took the fall for making the remark. The case is still ongoing but reportedly the Judge in this case has been ironically or coincidently transferred to Civil court last week.

Over in the Dependency court, I have continued to get reports of injustice by a "Judge" there. Even the BAR Association's recent 2007 Survey listed this judge as one of the lower ranked ones as far as being fair, etc. There are several families that I know of that are scrambling to get out of that courtroom so they can get a fair hearing. Reportedly, even County Counsel and the DA in one case are conspiring to get out of this Judge's courtroom.

And another complaint by a man who was held hostage in Fremont Hospital saying he was forcibly drugged with power psych drugs. He is really pissed off. (This usually takes a Judge to okay from what I know, but it wouldn't surprise me if that wasn't followed.
