US judge reprimanded for having sex in chambers apologises: ‘I have no excuse’
A US District Judge, Eleanor Ross, has apologized for misconduct including engaging in sexual activity within her chambers during working hours. An investigation by the 11th Judicial Circuit found that Ross had sex in the courthouse with a police officer and initially lied about her actions when confronted. The judge, nominated by Barack Obama in 2014, also faced allegations of not properly supervising her clerks and yelling at staff. AI
