A damning record of incompetence, laziness, and willful blindness. These judges—appointed for life, immune from accountability, and shielded by secrecy—have betrayed their oaths, destroyed lives, and perpetuated systemic racism with impunity. Not one has been removed for misconduct.
How is this acceptable?
"This is not about differing legal opinions. This is about judges who are either too incompetent to understand the evidence before them, or too complicit in systemic racism to care."
— The Injustitia Omnibus Investigation
DC judges are appointed for 15-year terms and are almost never removed. The Commission on Judicial Disabilities and Tenure (CJDT) operates in near-total secrecy.
Upon consideration of the Defendant's Motion for a New Trial based on Brady violations and ineffective assistance of counsel, it is hereby:
ORDERED that the motion is DENIED.
The Court finds that while the government failed to disclose the witness recantation, this error was "harmless" and would not have changed the outcome of the trial.

Judge Unknown
Associate Judge
U.S. District Court (Retired)
Presided over U.S. v. Microsoft. Removed from the case by the appellate court for unethical conduct and media interviews creating the "appearance of bias."
DC Superior Court (Retired)
Presided over the J20 trials. While he eventually sanctioned prosecutors, critics argued he allowed the overbroad prosecution to proceed too far before intervening.
Systemic Issue
Judges are automatically reappointed if the CJDT finds them "well qualified." This process lacks transparency and public input, allowing problematic judges to remain on the bench for decades.
