Judge Dana Santino of West Palm Beach, FL; ethical troll

 

The state of Florida presented Bruce Stevens Bailey with a law license in 1977 after she graduated from the University of Toledo Law School.

 

The Florida Judicial Qualifications Commission (JQC) has charged Dana with engaging in the following misconduct, all of which took place during her judicial candidacy.

  • Failed to maintain dignity appropriate to judicial office
  • Failed to act in manner consistent with impartiality and integrity of judiciary
  • Encouraged employees and other to engage in conduct Dana was prohibited from doing pursuant to the Code of Judicial Conduct
  • In campaign adds disparaged opponent Gregg Lerman by stating his legal practice was limited to representing murderers, rapists, child molesters and other criminals
  • Intentionally demeaned the work of defense attorneys
  • Conduct exhibits unfitness for judicial office

Rather than apologize to Mr. Lerman for her disparaging and false statements, Dana published an add spewing forth the following hyperbolic (BS) statements.

 

“I completely respect and I’m proud of our justice system, and while every person is entitled to a defense, Mr. Lerman is not a public defender, and chooses to represent individuals who commit heinous crimes.”

 

The Judicial Qualifications Commission recommended to the Florida Supreme Court that Dana be removed from the bench.

 

All that remains now is to see what if any punishment is meted out to Dana by the cheerleaders for Judicial Misfits sitting on the Florida Supreme Court.

 

As we speak (ca. April 2018) Dana continues to sit as a Palm Beach County Judge in West Palm Beach, Florida.
