	Anonymous User writes "Another for the "reverse the genders" file... http://www.breitbart.com/news/2006/04/04/D8GP9IPG6 .html Excerpt: 'A municipal judge has accepted censure as punishment for mocking an assault victim by comparing him to a lying character on "Saturday Night Live." The state Commission on Judicial Conduct said Monday that Syracuse City Court Judge Karen Uplinger "demeaned and mocked" assault victim Anthony Nushwat in October 2004.'"

I am surprised! (Score:1) by Davidadelong on 09:27 PM April 4th, 2006 EST (#1) A Woman judge being chastised for demeaning comments to a victim! We don't know the whole story, but we know enough. Any judge should remember who pays their salary. I had a judge Merton in CA make the comment a month and a half ago that the court would decide my rights, if I had any in regards to my deceased Sons' estate. To bad I can't get him for his obvious bias. "It is a good day to die!"

I'll bet the N.O.W. is preparing to give this woman a prize or something. This judge will probably write a book about her "ordeal", of course claiming that SHE was the REAL victim, and make tons of money from it. I WON'T be surprised if this actually comes about. The feminists and like-minded women have become boringly predictable...,   Thundercloud.   "Hoka hey!"

You see, her daddy wouldn't buy her that pony when she was 16, and refused to upgrade her BMW from a 318i to a 540i while he was putting her through law school, and that's "domestic violence" according to VAWA (isn't denial of unearned gender privilege domestic violence?), so she can attack any man she likes now and be "excused", don't you know! ;)

was the guy actually assaulted?? (Score:1) by quetzal on 01:40 PM April 5th, 2006 EST (#3) Of course, even if he was lying, the judge's comments were uncalled for! Imagine what would happen if the victim was a woman and the judge was a man in this case.

Courtesy Extended to Assailant (Score:1) by kavius on 10:25 AM April 6th, 2006 EST (#5) http://www.vius.ca As Nushwat was reading a statement during a sentencing hearing, Uplinger told defendant Artis Bey: "You don't have to listen to this if you don't want to." Congratulations to the author for including this. Isn't this usually a courtesy extended to victims when their assailants are reading confessions that may be emotionally disturbing to the victim?
