California Commission on Judicial Performance, Public Admonishment of Derek G. Johnson: December 13, 2012 pages 3-5.
Read the transcript of the Commission, which includes findings of fact in trial as to the rapist's insane, ongoing threats and behaviors to the victim; and the judge's rant to the prosecuting attorney, and you can only conclude that this judge (who is now only halfway through his 8 year term of office) is beneath contempt and a disgrace to judges everywhere.

The remaining question is whether deep red Orange County (I used to live in Anaheim, and know whereof I speak) will re-elect this monster.
