[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve been in a position to be offered consideration. It was political connections, pure and simple, to get to that point. From there, I would have had to pass vetting. [/quote]

Political connections. Period.

Disgraced former federal judge Jack Camp of the Northern District of Georgia is a prime example.

Camp worked in a two man law office. His partner was the former head of the Georgia Republican party.

Camp's wife was Newt Gingrich's campaign manager for Newt's first successful run for Congress (after two prior failed attempts). Camp appears to have been rewarded as Gingrich nominated her husband (Attorney Jack Camp) to the federal bench as a district court judge.

After taking senior status, the former judge started "dating" a stripper with a prior felony drug conviction for distribution, going to strip clubs, and accompanying the stripper girlfriend to drug deals with his gun in order to protect her. One drug dealer was an undercover FBI agent. Allegedly Camp pointed the gun at the undercover FBI agent during a drug deal. The then US District Court Judge (Jack Tarpley Camp, Jr.) was arrested. Camp pled guilty to three felony charges.

As a courtesy to the US District Court Judge the prosecutors did not charge Judge Camp with having a gun during a drug deal which would have been a mandatory 10 year sentence enhancement. (At the time Sally Yates was the US Attorney for the Northern District of Georgia.)

By way of divine intervention, Camp's three guilty felony pleas were reduced to misdemeanors allegedly because former US District Court Judge Jack Camp wanted to be able to carry a gun for protection.

An 8 page document:  https://www.policeprostitutionandpolitics.com/pdfs_all/COPS%20DAs%20JUDGES%20RAPE%20EXTORT%20PROSTITUTES%20RUN%20PROSTITUTION%20RINGS/Judges%20Rape%20Prostitutes%20etc/2010%20Jack%20Camp%20%7C%20Federal%20Judge%20GA/Felony%20to%20misdemeanor_%20How%20Jack%20Camp%20did%20it.pdf

The above 8 page document attempts to explain the unexplainable. Perhaps it is just a fringe benefit of being a politically well connected Federal Judge.[/quote]
