ILLINOIS- A judge who was seen on court surveillance video, putting a child inside a holding cell for inmates, has been demoted.
Judge Jackie Portman-Brown has been demoted from her position as a judge to tasks that will now include performing legal research, reviewing petitions and conducting marriage ceremonies.
This is the result of her being caught on court surveillance footage putting a 6-year-old girl inside of a holding cell at a court building on Feb. 19.
Brown was already removed from her bench on Feb. 26.
The 6-year-old girl was left in the cell unattended for about 10 minutes.
Two court officer’s were ripped of their badge as an investigation goes on. I’m assuming this stems from these officers standing around and allowing this to happen.
The judge allegedly tried to use a “scared straight” tactic on the child..
