It’s not a good week for female judges and photography. Traffic magistrate Rhonda Hollander was arrested at a Plantation, Fla., courthouse and accused of using her phone to take happy snaps of Willie Jackson, Jr. as he stood at a urinal. She also photographed another man entering the restroom, according to NBC Miami.
Police were called and Hollander admitted to taking a picture, snapped pics of her arresting officer and tried to bite the officer’s finger. The phone was seized and she was later freed on $700 bail.
Meanwhile, Manitoba judge Lori Douglas is facing a public inquiry after being connected to a sexual harassment and discrimination complaint. The CBC reports that Douglas stepped down from her duties last September after Alexander Chapman filed a complaint claiming that “Douglas’ husband, Jack King, tried to pressure him to have sex with her in 2002 and 2003.”
Douglas and King were partners in a law firm at the time and Chapman retained King to handle his divorce. King showed Chapman sexually explicit photos of Douglas, including bondage and oral sex pictures, some of which were posted on an interracial sex website, the CBC says. King admitted to that and apologized, especially to his wife “who he said had done nothing other than privately indulge him in his strange tastes.” The Winnipeg Free Press says that in March King pleaded guilty to a charge “of professional misconduct and was given a reprimand and ordered to pay the society's costs of $13,650.”
