A misconduct investigation is underway after a federal judge in California had the 13-year-old daughter of a defendant handcuffed and placed in the jury box, according to court documents.

The 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals is investigating a misconduct allegation against a federal judge who called a 13-year-old girl out of the spectator’s gallery at her father’s supervised release revocation hearing and had her handcuffed and placed in the jury box, according to court documents.

“She feels bad and was made to feel bad though she has done nothing wrong,” McKenzie said in a phone interview with CNN. The actions of Benitez are “really out of touch with the reality,” McKenzie said. “It shows a complete lack of understanding of what families – particularly the children of those in the criminal justice system – are going through.” Chief Judge Dana Sabraw of the Southern District of California contacted the higher court on February 17 about the allegations.

I’m sure the little punk was acting up, these kids need some discipline that’s a problem that never seems to be addressed

A right leaning judge tries to give a kid hanging with the wrong crowd a wake up call and keep her off drugs and out of criminal activity. The left says “this is an outrage, we need drug users and criminals to vote for us!”.

Im pretty sure the jury box doesnt have a height reauirment to enter it. What news is this. You can record wanabe army soldiers yelling at ur kids to thr slitting point and let it be ok but to wonder if this judge did it on purpose to make an invisible point towords her is not?ce

I hope getting the girl attention gets her on the right path.
