An Arkansas judge accused of swapping sex for reduced sentences resigned after a state commission said it discovered thousands of photographs from his computer depicting nude male defendants.
In a letter to the Judicial Discipline and Disability Commission, Cross County District Judge Joseph Boeckmann said his resignation was effective immediately, and that he would never again seek a job as a local, county or state employee.
The commission said it was in the process of recovering as many as 4,500 photos.
"They all depict young men, many naked who are in various poses inside the judge's home and outside in his yard," the letter states, adding that many of the men received checks from the judge and had appeared before him as defendants.
"There are numerous photos of naked young men bending over after an apparent paddling," the letter reads. "Please accept this as notice to not destroy [or] otherwise dispose of this paddle."
The commission detailed allegations of several men — including one under 18. The judge would often give defendants his hand-written phone number and have them serve what he described as "community service" at his home.
In another case, Boeckmann reduced a misdemeanor traffic violation and asked the defendant, identified in court documents as W.M., to bring three bags of cans to his home. After the judge offered him a drink — which he declined — "Boeckmann informed W.M. that he needed W.M. to pull 2 cans from the bags and bend over as if he were picking up the cans."
The judge then instructed him "on how to pose and spread his legs farther apart."
In documents filed in February, Boeckmann denied the allegations — saying that the photographs were used "to corroborate participation in community service."

Party affiliation?
At least he resigned. This is more than those perverted judges who make horrible decisions such as dropping all charges against a killer (recently on Dateline) or give a slap on the wrist to a pedophile, etc.
“You’re free to go,” the judge allegedly said after the handcuff incident. “Case dismissed.”
I hate these people that think the only consequence to their actions is to ‘resign’
Hell no! Hang him by his thumbs!
He needs like a 120 year sentence and sex offender status
Liberal democrat who backs men going into women’s bsthrooms... and everything else that spits in the faces of traditional Americans.
One more democrat lowlife...
He could bunk with Denny Hastert
Don’t worry about him. He has a fall back job as a Boy Scout Leader.
Imagine, now, all the young women who have been similarly victimized.
Our High School football field was named after a child molesting male guidance counselor. He attempted to make me one of his victims. Unfortunately I was too young and too scared to turn him in.
Similar experiences in my 20’s (early 80’s). Once was pulled by a Hickory NC police officer, asked for a date, and then ticketed when I refused.
A few years later, I recall going to court for a simple traffic ticket in Lincolnton NC, being called into judges chambers by my “attorney” (predator), while court remained in session, and fending off his sexual assault.
God protected me. It is a miracle I wasn’t raped or worse.
Somehow, predators ALWAYS end up in positions of authority. Makes for good hunting grounds.
I don’t believe 4,500 were all consenting; nor all adults. But certainly not were all queers.
I would have went to jail, and I definitely would have reported that pervert!

Now that we live in a sick country that celebrates and worships perversion, it looks like the only penalty this degenerate crud will have to pay is to step down from his position. The slimeball should be tossed in the clink for life, and if this were still the great nation we used to be, he would. Either that, or hanged from the nearest tree.
Lots of gals are gonna get out of prison early...and just might get nice little checks to boot.

Great skit! “And that Constable who gave his evidence *so* well....”
But it has nothing to do with homosexuality....
I wonder what category of IRS deduction he claimed those payments fell under?
