Texas Lawmaker Seeks Impeachment to a Judge.

Forth Worth lawmaker seeks impeachment to a Texas judge.. Well back in 2007 an inmate named Michael Richards which was scheduled to be executed September 25,2007.. his lawyer request that the court stay open an extra 20 minutes after closing. Judge Keller ignored and closed her court exactly at five o’clock. State rep. Lon Burnam is outraged and said "It’s one thing for a banker to close shop at 5 o’clock sharp. But a public official who stands between a human being and the death chamber must be held to a higher standard." To hear more on this Article check out Star-Telegram.

I think this a great article because Michael Richards could have had a second chance and also a Texas judge has not been impeached since 1970.
