The Chicago Sun-Times reports:
If history is any indication, a Cook County judge on indefinite suspension and deemed “legally insane” earlier this year will likely be re-elected next month.
She does well:
Circuit Court Judge Cynthia Brim still collects her regular paycheck — $181,929 annually — seven months after her courthouse tussle with a sheriff’s deputy and her suspension from the bench for erratic behavior.
Crook County voters don't seem to mind:
Despite the bad publicity and thumbs-down reviews of her work by fellow attorneys in many bar groups, voters will likely give her another six years on the bench.
That’s because it’s rare for a sitting circuit court judge to lose a re-election bid. It’s happened just once in 22 years.
Great moments of the Crook County Democrat party.
