A veteran New York state judge killed himself less than two weeks after his home was raided by investigators, according to one of his attorneys.

John Michalski, an acting justice on the Erie County Supreme Court, died by suicide Tuesday at his Amherst home, where federal and state law enforcement officers had executed a search warrant 12 days earlier, the Buffalo News reported. He was 61.

“It’s heartbreaking,” defense attorney Terrence Connors told the newspaper. “He was such a good guy. This just didn’t have to happen.”

Knowing what the search warrant was searching for would be a good thing to know.

“He was such a good guy.”

Hmm, usually when I hear someone committed suicide after a police raid, it’s because they definitely were not a “good guy”, and were ashamed to face the consequences of whatever nasty things they had been up to.

From reading the article, I suspect he was ‘mobbed up.’

Amazing that in a world where almost vices are allowed, and many are encouraged, some people still find a way to get themselves into trouble.

Justice Michalski’s death, at 61, came a little more than a year after another apparent suicide attempt in which, according to police records, he was struck by a freight train after lying on the tracks in a rail yard near Buffalo in the middle of the night. He sustained a serious leg injury but was otherwise unhurt, Mr. Connors said.

he had drawn the authorities’ attention because of his ties to Peter Gerace Jr., the owner of a strip club in Cheektowaga,

His actions tend to give the raid some credence that there was a possibility that the judge was involved in something illegal. Of course, that does not mean he actually was.
