Judge Psycho Wins

  • Hours after being re-elected to the bench in Cook County, Judge Cynthia Brim appeared in court this morning on a misdemeanor charge of battery.

    "I'm just happy the people voted me back in," Brim said after her status hearing, at which a Cook County judge transferred her case to yet another judge.

    Brim was charged in March after she allegedly shoved a sheriff’s deputy and tossed a set of keys toward another at a security checkpoint in the Daley Center. Her arrest came one day after she apparently went on an extended tirade while on the bench in the Markham courthouse.

    Brim’s attorney James Montgomery said this morning that his client was "legally insane" at the time of the alleged battery. 
Her defense is that she was "legally insane" yet she sits on the bench (or will) while her case gets kicked around from judge to judge unwilling to pull the trigger on her.

Why isn't the Chief Judge hearing this one?

The whole thing is nothing short of amazing. The Trib was on a mission to see Brim dumped. There were two splashy editorials ripping her. Unlike past judicial campaigns, the paper actively got behind the bar organization ratings, or at least those it agreed with. And every one of the bad judges, including the poster child, Brim, wins out. Retention is a complete joke and needs to be overhauled.

Not usually a religious man, but I read this to my boys this morning. I prayed for their future.

Thomas Jefferson

A Prayer for the Nation

Almighty God, Who has given us this good land for our heritage; We humbly beseech Thee that we may always prove ourselves a people mindful of Thy favor and glad to do Thy will. Bless our land with honorable ministry, sound learning, and pure manners. Save us from violence, discord, and confusion, from pride and arrogance, and from every evil way. Defend our liberties, and fashion into one united people, the multitude brought hither out of many kindreds and tongues. Endow with Thy spirit of wisdom those whom in Thy name we entrust the authority of government, that there may be justice and peace at home, and that through obedience to Thy law, we may show forth Thy praise among the nations of the earth. In time of prosperity fill our hearts with thankfulness, and in the day of trouble, suffer not our trust in Thee to fail; all of which we ask through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

--Washington D.C., March 4, 1801

Wow I am so proud to live in this city. Besides having 18 years on, I would leave in a heartbeat if I could. We have the mayor who is a bozo, we have this judge who is saying she was insane but she gets elected to office, and last but not least we have Jesse Jackass JR. I don't have to explain that one. All I want is my pension in a few years and I am out of here. Wtf people of Chicago, Cook County, and Illinois are FUCKIN STUPID.

Not that I am an Abatte fan but why wasn't she charged with aggravated battery on a public way like Sgt. Eddie Howard Jr and Abatte? Her vicitm was also an on duty sworn peace officer which of course is another condition for aggravation. Look out, four more years of this police hater Alvarez. What a piece of shit!

Why is a Cook County Judge hearing this case? One Cook County Judge ruling over another Cook County Judge. Is that not a "conflict". An outside Judge from: DuPage, Lake, Will etc. should be ruling on this case. Just Saying...

I'm an old guy (not a cop), who grew up on the Westside and have lived around Chicago all my life. Press, politics, clout and the rest is same-old, same-old. Sad to say it's not going to change. Democrats, Republicans, Whigs or Tories; they're all the same. Be safe and good luck.

This state,county,city is shot. I have voted most of my entire adult life and it has changed nothing! The only redeeming result was the defeat of the constitutional amendment relating to pensions. If there ever was a need for a third party, it's Illinois.

Why not? Cook County is no more legitimate than the Jackson clan of criminal extortionists. They may as well have a lunatic judge. Do you really believe that the system there is just? Wake the fuck up. We're living in a banana republic here.

Perhaps (former Chicago Corp. Counsel) James Montgomery should have defended Abbate.
He could have used the 'legally shit-faced' defense at the time of the alleged battery.

Move along now, nuttin' to see here.

What's the big deal here. This is clout city where the insane are in positions of authority in all departments. Each one of them a ticking time bomb. Does anyone think their sponsor,chinaman,rabbi,will be held accountable when they blow up?

Now this psycho judge will be embolden by the lack of repercussions for her lack of reasonable behavior. Some how I don't think this is the first or last time that this incompetent,psycho judge will get a pass.

The clout babies of this city government all operate like spoiled little brats looking for attention. Pushing to get away with as much as they can.

She is just the epitome of a clout baby. We can all name numerous others. The list would be as long as the worst rap sheet ever seen.

The worse of them will be weeded out. But oh so many others will continue to be obstructionists.

They need to be called out every time they step on them selves.

SCC you keep it up.

During election years I think police officers should comment on which judges we think should be retained. There was a judge at branch 34 named Stanley Hill who always rules against police in legtimate cases. Officers, whenever you see this judges name on any ballot please vote NO !!

Her defense disqualifies her from having a FOID card. If the state doesnt put her on the ATF list to prevent her from obtaining any firearm, then the state is liable for any injury she delivers with a firearm on any individual. Specifically the court officers are liable along with the prosecutors and may be subject to further charges.

Chicago Voters are idiots.

Certain Voters of Chicago are real f--king idiots.

We elect people that are admittedly mentally ill?

And facing charges?

Does anyone still wonder why the criminal justice system is failing?

If Don the Magic Juan (Pimp)ran for office in certain areas of the city today, he would probably be elected. (see Bobby Black Panther Rush or Wallace GangBanger Davis).

When you run on your record, it should not be your CRIMINAL RECORD.

However, if you do go to prison like Mel (band-aid head / pedophile) Reynolds, you will probably get your sentence commuted. (see Bill Clinton).

Your Preckwinkleness robo-called and said " vote for them all". James Montgomery, Brims lawyer says she is bi-polar, which seems to be the new cop-out for the elected ones who
screw the electorate and get busted. If she is insane then her sorry behind needs to be fired. And why does Chief Judge Timothy Evans remain silent
on this peoblem ?

Brim got re-elected because the sheeple went into the voting booths and dutifully
did as they were instructed, vote yes for each every democrat on the ballot, don't consider the office, just okay the name listed.

From NBC Washington DC-

A rap song may be the biggest clue in an early morning robbery in Maryland.
Laurel police are looking for a pair of rappers who allegedly robbed a recording studio after a session.
About 1 a.m. Thursday, two men dropped by Copy Catz to lay down “Larry Hoover” – dedicated to famous Chicago gangster King Larry.
When the rap was wrapped, the rappers left the studio and walked out of the building while everybody else got ready to leave, but the rappers quickly returned – with guns. They ordered everyone to sit on the sofa and started demanding valuables.


It looks like the gangs in Chicago are spreading out.

The only way you can get back at this city is to buy all of you provisions in the next county. It is very simple to do plan ahead and go to Will or Dupage and make your purchases. While there buy fuel, cigarettes,ect. Send a message with your buying power and not your voting choice.

An arrested judge's defense is temporary insanity because she's schizophrenic, and not responsible for her erratic behavior. She then gets retained by the electorate to preside over trials.
It's true, the loons are running the asylum.

Obamacare, over regulation and taxes = Obama recession, they don't have the bush crutch to lean on anymore, maybe they will start blaming Eisenhower for the economy. Maybe voters should actually read the legislation our overlords are passing before voting. that's probably expecting too much from our willfully ignorant and lazy electorate.

Brim's attorney is James Montgomery, former partner of the late Johnny Cochran as Johnny branched out to Chicago.

Montgomery also lives directly next door to one Barack Obama in Hyde Park. Right exactly smack dab next door.

Think Judge Brim will lose her case? I doubt it.
