Interesting materials from the hearing surrounding impeachment of Judge Kent
Anyone following the sad saga of the crimes and punishment of former federal Judge Sam Kent will want to check out some of the materials linked at this House Judiciary website relating to yesterday's "Hearing to Consider Impeachment of Samuel B. Kent of the Southern District of Texas." Of particular note are the statements from the victims of Kent's sexual misconduct here and here.
Based on the victim's accounts of the crimes they endured, I continue to believe that federal prosecutors and the federal sentencing judge went much too easy on this repeat sexual offender.
