Prosecution dropped for Judge who helped Illegal avoid INSDem President, Dem judge, aiding and abetting a criminal, no prosecution. All while getting paid. Have the right politics and you too can do whatever you want. Two tier justice. Looking further into the case, she was on the job for 137 days before helping the guy escape on April 2, 2018. Was suspended on April 25, 2019. Still suspended, still got paid. The guy she helped escape, twice deported and was before her on drug charges and wanted on drunk driving charges in PA. Feds move to drop Shelley Joseph case through agreement with Newton judge accused of releasing illegal immigrantThe feds are moving to drop the charges in the case against Newton Judge Shelley Joseph, saying they’ve reached an agreement with the judge accused of letting an illegal immigrant out the back door to avoid ICE. Federal prosecutors on Thursday filed a motion to dismiss the three charges against Joseph and defer prosecution of court officer Wesley MacGregor, who was charged alongside her. In exchange, they wrote, Joseph has “agreed to refer herself to the Massachusetts Commission on Judicial Conduct.” “Judge Joseph’s actions on April 2, 2018, needlessly obscured the events surrounding the release of a Massachusetts state court defendant who was also the subject of an ICE civil detainer,” wrote Rhode Island U.S. Attorney Zachary Cunha, who’s handling the case as Massachusetts U.S. Attorney Rachael Rollins is recused. “Those actions contributed to the ambiguity of the factual record. But that ambiguity, any potential violations of Massachusetts state court policies, and the question of whether Judge Joseph’s actions potentially undermined public confidence in the integrity and impartiality of a state court proceeding, are, in this case, best addressed by state judicial oversight, rather than federal criminal prosecution,” Cunha added. Joseph was charged by the office of former U.S. Attorney Andrew Lelling, a Trump appointee, of helping a twice-deported illegal immigrant evade federal immigrations officials. The case was highly publicized at the time and was a local flashpoint for the immigration debates of the past several years. She is charged with conspiracy to obstruct justice, obstruction of justice and aiding and abetting and obstruction of a federal proceeding and aiding and abetting. The motion to dismiss will need a federal judge’s approval to go into effect to drop those charges. MacGregor, who was charged with perjury, already has resigned his job and has faced discipline, so, Cunha wrote, “that the deferred prosecution agreement entered with Mr. MacGregor represents a fair and balanced resolution of this matter and is likewise in the interest of justice.” Joseph has been suspended while still being paid $184,000 a year. |
