A Judge No Jurist Could Stand

May 31. 2007

Judge Elizabeth Halverson

Nevada district judge Elizabeth Halverson is terrorizing her local court system. So much so, it made national news headlines. Queen Elizabeth she is not. Not only is she abusive to members of the court, she publicly berates her husband in a very degrading manner as well, causing much offense.  

From treating the black bailiff assigned to her like a “house boy” (requiring him to give her foot rubs and back massages) to demanding members of staff show up a little after 6AM each morning to greet her when she arrives well after 8AM, this woman is a terror and an absolute nightmare, who needs to be impeached from the bench immediately. She is more proof why some people just should not be on the bench:

STORY SOURCE

 Judge just doesn't see failure to treat people with dignity, respect

May. 28, 2007...Before long, stories started coming out of the Regional Justice Center about her contemptuous behavior toward her staff, particularly her bailiff, Johnny Jordan. Halverson, who had never had real power, was relishing it, throwing a pencil on the floor and ordering him to pick it up. Jordan was ordered to give her foot rubs and back massages.

He has since filed a complaint against his former boss alleging discrimination based on sex and race. He is black and says she treated him like a "house boy." Her court clerk, Katherine Streuber, said the judge's behavior was "vile, angry, degrading to anyone within her path." Streuber also objected to being called "the evil one" and "the anti-Christ" by the judge. (We in the news business hear that every other day, but courthouse employees are unaccustomed.)
