Alabama Federal Judge May Be Another Casualty Of The Ray Rice Video
Posted on 9/17/14 at 10:05 pm

It appeared as though Mark Fuller was going to fly below radar without ever paying the price for beating the crap out of his wife, but then the Ray Rice video surfaced, which prompted every politician under the sun to go out and prove his/her anti-domestic violence bona fides.

There's no video, but there is the audio of his wife's 911 call, and it's pretty damning.

After Roland Martin shined a spotlight on Alabama Judge Mark Fuller, Congresswoman Terri Sewell became the first member of Congress to call for the federal judge’s resignation. Why? Because in the wake of the scandal over Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice, Fuller, a federal judge, is in the midsts of a domestic violence scandal.
Federal judges have lifetime appointments to the federal bench.
After Martin spoke on the case over the last ten days on his show #NewsOneNow on @TVOne, Chris Hayes did a segment on Judge Fuller last night on MSNBC. Congress has the power to remove federal judges from the bench. Over the last ten days, many members of Congress have commented and contacted the NFL over Ray Rice but have said nothing on Mark Fuller.

We'll then shouldn't anyone that allows Bill Clinton to speak anywere be dealt with in a loathsome way?
He was accused of rape and had sex with a lowly intern.

Clinton was never accused of rape or any other violent crime, he was accused of chasing poon in a non-PC way. Why doesn't it surprise me that a gump would defend another gump who beats the crap out of his wife?

Suspend him from the bench for a couple of weeks then if video comes out when can do something more serious. #rogergoodell

No, he was accused of sexual harassment and settled a civil case out of court. Unless, sexual harassment is now "chasing poon in a non-PC way."

Sexual harassment is not a violent crime. What's your point and why are you folks defending a federal judge beating his wife? Is it because he's White?

Is this the "Clinton did it too" defense? A little bit of a throwback, but still a goodie.

If Fuller had only did what Clinton did, he wouldn't have this kind of heat on him. Let me repeat this: BILL CLINTON WAS NEVER ACCUSED OF RAPE, DOMESTIC VIOLENCE OR ANY OTHER VIOLENT CRIME.

Ted Kennedy drowned a bitch is lauded as a hero. dunno the relevance tbh, I just wanted to say drowned a bitch. #waronoxygen
In all seriousness if dude was convicted then he should be removed, but not before. This is a state position, not a private entity and due process should apply IMO.

Who's defending him? He should be gone.

Tig, not sure but I believe the coroner's report stated that she was dead before she hit the water? Also, wasn't Mary Jo pregnant?

Maybe, I dunno. Don't take this from me

Okay, that's a start. Why didn't you respond to the OP to begin with, rather than go off on a tangent? By the way, I have no idea whether he's a Republican or a Democrat because I think it's irrelevant.

I don't either. It is irrelevant.
And I was responding to an idiotic phrasing with which you responded to another poster. Sexual harassment isn't "non-PC poon chasing."

FWIW, this occurred a couple of weeks before the Ray Rice video and there was growing sentiment in this state for him to resign. The Rice video certainly added fuel to the fire, but there would have been people calling for his job regardless, IMO.
Also, this is his 2nd wife and there are reports his first marriage ended because he abused her.
