TopicJudiciary
Content I have had the misfortune to witness on an almost daily basis, judges violating even the mose basic rights of citizens. Judges have no accountability to anyone other than themselves. Although we all make mistakes, a judge should know the law and apply it correctly. If the judge makes a mistake with law then the appeals court can intervene, however, if a judge is blatant about violating a citizens rights then he or she deserves nothing less than jail time. I have witnessed complete and total violation of the rights of the citizens of Oklahoma in the courts. I have seen judges lie, I have seen attorneys cheat their clients under the noses of judges and nothing happens to stop any of it. We need court reform and the people who blatantly violate the law should go to prison. The judiciary needs to be accountable to the people where currently they are not. Also, we need to remove, from the statutes, complete judicial descretion, which actually means that a judge can do whatever he wants in a case and still not be violating those statutes. Greg
