C.K. said that dating takes a lot of courage. For the guy it takes a
lot of courage just to ask the woman out, while for the woman it
takes a lot of courage to say yes. Of course sometimes the guy in
question is a total creep. And sometimes the guy is a Judge who had a
bit of a power trip and is a total scumbag.
Ex-Judge Bryant Cochran |
The
woman in question in this case is one Angela Garmley from Chatsworth,
Georgia. She had been in court regarding an incident in which she had
been assaulted by three men. Judge Bryant Cochran who was presiding
over the case then requested to hear Ms. Garmley side of the story in
private in his chambers.
Angela Garmley |
While
alone together Judge Cochran informed Ms. Garmley that he needed a
mistress and had “a real boner for her” (Da Fuq?) He then
told her to send him a “seductive photo” of her so that he could
get a “sneak peak.” And people say romance is dead..#Gross
If
it takes courage to ask a woman on a date you could also say that it
took a lot of balls to approach a plaintiff in a case and ask them to
be your mistress. Or he just might be a disgusting asshole..yep that
seems more likely. And has he never heard of Snapchat? That's a lot
less of a hassle.
Unfortunately
for the Judge Ms. Garmley didn't find his advances charming at all.
She didn't reject his kind offer right there and then; instead she
filed a complaint against him as well as giving an interview to a
newspaper. Several days after the interview appeared in the paper Ms.
Garmley was arrested by the police for drug possession.
Some
of you might say that the timing was more than convenient and that
her arrest was a little bit suspicious. And you would be right. The
charges against Ms. Garmley were dropped after an investigation
revealed that Judge Cochran had enlisted the help of several people
to frame Ms. Garmley for drug possession. The two former police
officers involved have both plead guilty to charges brought against
them in federal court and are now awaiting sentencing.
Bryant
Cochran resigned as judge (about damn time) though he has continued
to deny any involvement in the arrest of Ms. Garmley. She currently
has a civil suit pending against him. I still don't understand why he
hasn't been charged with a crime; I'm no lawyer but I'm pretty sure
planting drugs in someone's car is against the law. Or maybe his
friends in the police force felt bad for him. Who knows..
Talk
about handling rejection badly. Some people just don't take it well.
We've all been rejected at least once in our life. And we've learnt
how to move on. Well apparently Bryant never learnt that lesson.
Clearly
in Georgia the requirements to be a Judge are pretty low. Morals or
proper judgement are not required for the job; or intelligence. I'm
pretty sure there are plenty of websites to help you find a mistress.
You don't have to sexually harass a woman that walk into your
courtroom. Of course this isn't the first Judge to upset me this week.
But
for not taking any bullshit from this particular Judge, Ms Garmley is
a BAMF. And now I hope she can get some monies off him. Then
it might finally sink into his thick skull to stop behaving like a
dick. Gawd men are stupid..
Don't
take my word for it here are some links:
