The judge that Swindell was talking about:
"George W. Trammell III is a former California Superior Court judge. In 2001, Trammell was sentenced to 27 months in prison for having given preferential treatment to a criminal defendant with whom he had sexual relations. Trammell had resigned from the bench in 1997, upon learning that he was under investigation"
"Jurors in Santa Ana Friday rejected Pifen Lo’s claim that she was coerced into having repeated sex with then-Los Angeles Superior Court Judge George W. Trammell III after he presided over a criminal case in which she and her husband were defendants.
Lo accused Trammell of sexual battery and intentional infliction of emotional distress, and sought to hold the state of California liable as Trammell’s employer. Orange Superior Court Judge David Brickner bifurcated the case, with the state’s liability being tried first."
Apparently, ye olde "give me some nookie and you go free" style.
