[A recently re elected Illinois Judge will now go in front of another court and plead the insanity defense against charges. Like the perfessor says, you can't make this stuff up. And these motherf@#%ers and their paisans want to take our guns away. One look at this story and the only thing a logical person could conclude is that we need our guns more than ever precisely to defend ourselves against them. But that Socialist Workers Paradise sounds so appealing and they've been dreaming of instituting one on this soil for a hundred years or so]
"You cant make this stuff up, and in Illinois, you dont need to. Illinois is like my home State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations, only bigger and badder.
Via John Ruberry at Marathon Pundit:
Last fall Judge Cynthia Brim [recieved] barely the necessary Yes votes to keep the job that she has been suspended fromwith payfor months.
This week Brim heads to courtnot a a judgebut as a defendant. And the Chicago Sun-Times says she plans to plead insanity to a misdemeanor battery charge.
Once judges in Illinois are electedthey only have to face a retention vote every six years.
Its been 23 years since a Cook County judge was booted by voters from the bench. Brim, despite the recommendation of a No vote from the Chicago Tribune and the Chicago Bar Association, collected the one endorsement that counted last fall the Cook County Democratic Party urged a Yes vote for all judges up for retentions, including Brim. The Trib gave Brim an excoriating rebuke last fall.
From the Chicago Sun-Times, shes laying on the crazy in her defense:
As the Sun-Times first reported, a psychiatric examination determined Brim was legally insane when she allegedly tossed her keys at a security checkpoint in the downtown Daley Center court complex on March 9 last year, shoved a sheriffs deputy and struggled with officers as they arrested her.
Ms. Cynthia Brim was suffering from symptoms of a psychotic mental disorder, i.e. schizoaffective disorder, bipolar type, as a result of which she lacked the substantial capacity to appreciate the criminality of her act, according to Dr. Mathew S. Markos, a psychiatrist who heads the Cook County court systems forensic clinical services ."
