Judge Randy Jinks, an Alabama public official who represents Talladega County, has been removed from office after being accused of racist and sexually inappropriate behavior.
The 65-year-old was unanimously ousted in an order last Friday, Oct. 30, after Judge Jinks claimed George Floyd got what he deserved after the Minneapolis resident was murdered by police officer Derek Chauvin in May 2020.

(82,849 posts)What, specifically, was it that George Floyd did that warranted being tortured to death in the street in broad daylight before a crowd of horrified onlookers? You say he deserved it, so what did he do?
