Judge Reprimanded For Ordering Probationer To Church

The Florida Supreme Court yesterday reprimanded state Circuit Judge Richard Albritton Jr. for 14 ethics violations, including ordering a probationer to go to church, even though Albritton knew that the order was unconstitutional. The Associated Press reports that the reprimand was agreed to by Albritton after it became clear that he would be running unopposed for re-election in November.
