Judge of the Day: Donald Jackson

When Judge Donald Jackson enters a courtroom, the bailiffs may ask that “all kneel” instead of rise. The Texas county judge has been found guilty of offering to help a woman accused of DWI if she was willing to serve time in the bedroom.
From the Dallas Morning News:

A 28-year-old woman charged with driving while intoxicated accused Jackson of offering her a better court-appointed attorney if she’d agree to a romantic relationship. A jury found Jackson guilty Friday of official oppression.

Judge Mark Kent Ellis told Jackson, “We are all tarnished by your stupidity.” Then Judge Ellis gave him a sentence that he “wouldn’t wish on his worst enemy.” What’s that?


County jail. From MyFox Houston:

Last week, Jackson was found guilty of official oppression after being accused of offering to drop a charge against 27-year-old Venegas in exchange for a sexual relationship. He was given two years probation, 30 days in the county jail, and a $4,000 fine in the punishment phase of a trial against him.
Judge Ellis also suspended Judge Jackson from the bench based on a previous precedent.
“I would not wish county jail on my worst enemy, but you earned it by your reckless conduct,” said Ellis to Jackson in court on Monday.
