Cook County Judge in court to face charges hours after re-election

Meet the lady that those freaky Cook County voters voted for even after she become an embarrassment to the party bosses. The Chicago Tribune reports:
A Cook County judge who was re-elected Tuesday despite being suspended from the bench appeared in court a few hours later as a defendant in a battery case that her attorney said should be tossed because his client was "legally insane" at the time.
There's more:
Judge Cynthia Brim, 54, whose 18-year tenure has been marked by controversy, told reporters as she left a criminal courtroom Wednesday at 26th and California that she was pleased by the election results, which she watched at home Tuesday night.
Great moments of the Cook County Democrat party.
