The former judge was found guilty of using her position to help her brother keep a government job. 9News

A former juvenile court judge was jailed today, taken out of the courtroom with her feet dragging in an end to years-long legal challenges to her sentence.

There were more demonstrations outside the Hamilton County Courthouse, and civil rights activists said there will be boycotts or other actions in protest. Hamilton County Common Pleas Judge Patrick Dinkelacker ordered her six-month jail sentence carried out after a contentious hearing in which he read from postcards with critical comments sent to his home in Hunter's support. He called them an apparent intimidation attempt that "flat-out failed."
