Judge wants back on bench after insanity ruling (Chicago)
Chicago Tribune ^ | 3/28/2014 | Steve Schmadeke

Brim was effectively suspended from her duties as a judge after the battery charges were filed but was nonetheless returned to the bench by voters weeks later. She has continued to collect her $182,000 salary since her 2012 suspension.

On Friday, Brim said she was once again able to fulfill her duties as judge. Over the last two years, she said, she has consistently taken her medications – a requirement of her probation in the battery case – and has not had any psychotic episodes.

“I can serve as a judge with full capability as long as I continue to take the medication as prescribed,” she said. “I've had two years to think about this, and I have a different perspective and understanding of my condition. I realize now I have to stay on my medications and see a psychiatrist on a regular basis.”

But John Gallo, an attorney for the Judicial Inquiry Board that filed the disciplinary charges, questioned whether it was proper to return Brim to the bench.

If she was allowed to serve again, parties who had important cases before her would soon learn about her past and wonder about her ability, he said.

“They’re looking at a judge who said to a court that she was at one point in time...insane,” Gallo said.

Cook County = Chicago = psychotic judge

I see no problem here. In fact, it looks like she is probably on a fast track to the Soopreem Court.

Here’s the scoop: jesses bio father is Noah Robinson as in mRo. His half bro Noah is doing life for his involvment in a black Muslim street gang, organized by a Mexican Drug cartel. Said gang controlled the community Onorganized. MO wore the gangs colors at several inaugural events.
Part of the “cover up” of how close the family was to the drug-male&female prostitution- murder for hire- domestic terrorist -gun running gang has been to educate family members and place them in respectable positions.
If she is indeed mentally ill, is it inherited ala JJJ or a product of drug use from one of Noah’s associates?
If you want documentation FR me

Holy Moly—

Judged by a “judge” who calls herself insane, is under psychiatric care, takes psychotropic medication and has psychotic episodes?

And this is someone we expect to be fair and impartial and unbiased?

I think there’s a position ready for her in the Obama cabinet!!

There is one particularly choice comment. I lived in Chicago for 30 years, and to label the #36, (Broadway), bus the Schizo Express is absolutely beyond price. You could bet the farm that, late at night, once the bus hit Broadway and Wilson, there would be at least one stinking lump that would huddle, mumbling to itself, in the seat across from the rear door.

Perhaps it was Judge Brin, before she was elevated to the bench...

Might as well. No one will know the difference now days.

I don’t even know where to begin ... a liberal Chicago judge who is actually certified INSANE! We know that all liberals are insane and by extension liberal judges ... but this one has the papers to prove it. If Obongo had another aunt ...

To: All

every attorney in her court will be able to appeal any case or ruling in her court based on her background and crazy behavior.

The rest will do motions to recuse.
