Judge Steven Combs of Pikeville, KY; ethical gremlin ![]()
The state of Kentucky presented Steven Daniel Combs with a law license in after he graduated from the University of Kentucky Law School.
In 2003, former Gov. Paul Patton was duped into appointing Steven as a Circuit Court judge in Pikeville. Steven didn’t receive the appointment because he was the most qualified attorney in the Pikeville area. He received it because he had proven to be a reliable lackey for the local political hacks.
The Judicial Conduct Commission charged Judge Combs with the following misconduct.
All that remains now is to see what punishment is meted out to Judge Combs for the egregious misconduct he so cheerfully engaged in.
As we speak (ca. May 2015), Combs remains sitting as a Circuit Court judge in Pikeville, Kentucky. |
