LINK Court rules Alabama judge accused of racist, sexist remarks must be removed from office

An Alabama probate judge accused of making racist and sexist remarks and fostering a hostile work environment must be removed from office, a state judicial ethics court said Friday in a rare and unanimous ruling.

In sanctioning Probate Judge Randy Jinks of Talladega County, the Alabama Court of the Judiciary wrote that he had violated several of the state's Canons of Judicial Ethics, guidelines directing judges to uphold the honor of the judiciary, maintain decorum and avoid impropriety.

Alabama has a judicial system? I thought it was all just handled by guys in white robes on horses.

Alabama generally is pretty corrupt. So, this was very surprising for me to see.

It took rejection by voters to stop judge Moore (whom I think was in AL) so this ethics court must have been watching TV that day. Maybe they were just moved by Talladega Nights, though.
