Sounds like Bexar Couny's 175th district court judge Mary Roman with a capital murder case where she refused a translator for a russian born defendant. Add her to the list!
There is another Judge who should be added to the list, Judge Susan Brown of the 185th District Court, Harris Co.
She is partial to only the DA and this is the office where he husband works. She does not allow information into a case that would help the defendant and she should be removed from the bench.
What is the reason when a person gets elected to a Judgeship, they become untouchable and consider themselves rulers of the universe? Maybe some of the rulers will get removed from their thrones in the next election.
From a fellow Harris Co. Resident who is fed up with the judicial system that does not exist here!
Well, I can tell you that as I covered a story in Collin County with Judge Cynthia Wheeless, add her to the list. I have never seen such injustice or personal vendettas in a court room. I do believe that cases like this will bring potential jurors to the proverbial light of injustice in the 'jUST-US" system so when they are asked to judge....judge the facts and only the facts....not personal feelings, suspicions, judge/attorney relationships and faulty evidence. I hope these cases yield high coverage and noticeable awareness.
I second that comment on Judge Cynthia Wheeles; she is a judge that should be under the scope of a watchdog group that can make a difference; look out for backdated files, rubber stamped decisions, and biased decisions that are against public policy and unlawful, prejudicial and in HER interest, not childrens' interests
Shopping for Christian Louboutin
onrope is much better in terms of coin as well. A great figure of Christian Louboutin Pumps
means that you get a much wider scope of prices to pick out a pair wislim your budget. Through comparing prices offegules through disparate onrope Christian Louboutin Boots
stores you are competent to tell real pubgains and get awea few designer Christian Louboutin Sandals
for inexpensive.
To those who posted about Ray Wheelis and his wife Cynthia Wheelis please if you can email me. I would really like to hear what happened in your case. It's a long story that I don't/can't post on here at this time. When it is over I definitely will. stephie_513@yahoo.com stephie_513 at yahoo
