Judge Edmund Clarke Jr. of Los Angeles; ethical gremlin

The state of California provided Edmund Wilcox Clarke Jr. with a law license in 1975 after he graduated from St. Johns University Law School.

The California Judicial Commission has charged Eddy with engaging in the following misconduct.

• Engaged in willful misconduct
• Engaged in conduct brining judiciary into disrepute (What’s new?)
• Spoke in demeaning manner to prospective jurors
• Falsely accused juror of trying to deceive him
• Intentionally demeaned jurors who suffered from financial problems
• Engaged in a pattern of discourteous behavior towards prospective jurors
• Engaged in inappropriate treatment of members of the public

All that remains to be seen now is what if any punishment is meted out to Eddy the Bully by the enablers for Judicial Misfits sitting on the California Judicial Commission.

As we speak (ca. January 2016), Eddy continues to sit as a Los Angeles Superior Court judge in Los Angeles, California.
