Judge Hunter may have committed crime says Prosecutor. [View all]

Source: Cincinnati Enquirer

“If this was done to intentionally thwart our ability to pursue an appeal, a crime may have been committed,” Prosecutor Joe Deters said.

Hunter did not respond Friday to calls to her office and cellphone.

In court documents and an internal memo, prosecutors say documents were purposely backdated by Hunter, or someone acting at her request. The backdating, prosecutors added, was done to deny prosecutors a chance to appeal the judge’s rulings.

Party affiliation aside, this could be the worst judge in county history. She kicked the media out, held a reporter in contempt for reporting things she didn't like, and has been held in contempt of court by the Court of Appeals for violating their orders.
