A Night of Drinking, a Closed Strip Joint and a White Castle Shooting Bring Suspensions for 3 Judges
Three Indiana judges were found to have engaged in judicial misconduct and in “an injudicious manner” that included fisticuffs and gunfire in a restaurant’s parking lot in downtown Indianapolis, CNN reports.
The incident led to the judges’ being temporarily suspended without pay by the Indiana Supreme Court.
It all started hours before the three were to attend an educational conference in Indianapolis. They went out drinking for a few hours and decided to walk to a strip joint but found it to be closed, so they went to a White Castle. In the parking lot there, they became involved in a fracas with two men.
Two of the judges were shot and required emergency surgeries.
The three are Andrew Adams of the Clark Circuit Court 1, Bradley B. Jacobs of the Clark Circuit Court 2 and Sabrina R. Bell of the Crawford Circuit Court.
