Judge Patricia Lynch of Essex, England; potty mouth loser
The Judicial Conduct Investigations Office (JCIO) is investigating Patty for engaging in the following misconduct.
While presiding over a sentencing matter involving John Hennigan, Patty found it acceptable involve herself in a shouting match resulting in the exchange of profanities with the defendant. Midway through the sentencing hearing, the Hennigan interrupted the proceedings and called Patty “a bit of a cunt.”
This led to the following back and forth between Patty and Johnny:
PATTY: “You are a bit of a cunt yourself.” “Being offensive to me doesn’t help.” JOHNNY: “Go fuck yourself.” PATTY: “You too.”
Obviously, it is absurd for any judge to cheerfully jump into the gutter with a disgruntled defendant. However, this is exactly what Patty did when she called Johnny “a cunt.”
As we speak (ca. August 2016), Patty continues to sit as a Chelmsford Town Court judge in Chelmsford, Essex, United Kingdom. |
