federal Judge Fired for Praising his Clerk - 07/04/20
The chief judge of the 9th U.S. District Court for the Central District of California held a webinar with attorneys in California recently to discuss new Covid procedures and provide general updates about the court.
It should have been a pretty mundane webinar.
At one point, the judge praised his clerk, saying “we have just a fabulous clerk of the court in Kiry Gray. She’s so street-smart and really knows her job.”
THE HORROR!
Yes, apparently describing someone as “street smart” is a demeaning, racist comment. And the Twitter mob piled on the heat, calling out the judge’s obvious white supremacy.
He has now resigned from his post.
