Even if it’s a felony?

First time, non-violent and non-trafficking conviction?
It would be rare for anyone to get a serious prison sentence in this circumstance, judge or not. Now, lay person may have gotten some sort of deferred sentence or home detention type deal, but no one is going to Terre Haute for obstruction of justice first offense.

Our justice system is so fricked.

I’m just telling you how it is. A 70 year old with no record was never getting prison in this case for obstruction even if she wasn’t a judge.
So why was Tina Peters railroaded off to jail?

Yes, Tina Peters was a first-time, nonviolent offender when she was convicted. Public officials and Colorado Governor Jared Polis explicitly referred to her as a first-time offender following her August 2024 trial convictions for crimes related to an election security breach.

I hear you.
But it was felony obstruction. Where an illegal alien on trial for battery was helped to escape.
Google says the details of a felony obstruction matter greatly. How could a felony obstruction get much worse than hers?

You chose a very specific example of a demonstrably political situation/prosecution 
You already know the answer.
No, Tina Peters’ case was not typical

It gets a lot worse than letting an illegal out the back door. And I’m not trivializing her crime, just say that actively hiding or concealing crimes much worse than illegal entry is worse to me. People protect child predators and shite in ways way more direct than just letting them escape. That’s worse.
I accepted her career and image being ruined as being more fitting than her doing six months a long time ago anyway.

Yes because she absolute should. Anyone of us charged with the same crime would be in jail. Try being less retarded.

Wow, we really set the tone to keep things like this from happening in the future. What a joke. Our legal system (judiciary) is obviously being exploited to the point of being completely unfounded in rational thought and irrelevant.

For half the country, including this political activist judge, she’s a heroine.
She’ll financially benefit as a result.
At least she won’t be rewarded through USAid. Small consolation, I suppose.

She didn’t try to hide or concealing a crime.
She committed a crime WHILE completely absolving a man from his crime entirely. Her goal was for a man in court for battery to never face punishment for it, had he been convicted. She didn’t even allow the case to go forward.
How is that not worse than hiding or concealing a crime?
Add to it that the man was in the United States illegally.
And add that had ICE not shown up that very day, this judge would be most likely forever ruling with that type of bias in mind at all times.
Now how is that not enough to put someone being bars for a small stretch?
Posted on 7/8/26 at 8:20 pm to GooseSix
I definitely don't think this is a good precedent, but the stark reality is that ICE agents have become increasingly brutal and ruthless in their relations with the public. Just yesterday in Houston's Eado district, an ICE agent shot and killed Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, a Mexican national, but a father, a husband, and a job creator, In the course of making a routine arrest. The local community is grieving tonight over apparently excessive force used by the agent-- which has become routine, and increasingly cruel in recent months.

Okay.. has there ever been a judge other than maybe a local constable type judge that has ever broken the law and actually gotten any "real" jail time? It definitely seems like if you ever get a position of a judge, you have an eternal get out of jail free card regardless of what you do. There is absolutely zero accountability for them. Worst case scenario is they lose their job and are disbarred. They are still free and would probably still make a good 6 figure salary as some type of lobbyist.

That biased democrat judges won't jail political activist democrat judges, but the democrat activist judges will absolutely jail 1st time convicted, non violent conservative state officials.
Yes, I know exactly what my example proves.
