MAGA judge's stole dead cop's memorial fund to pay for wedding, plastic surgery and other personal expenses (boingboing.net)

Michele Fiore, ex-Las Vegas City Councilwoman and recent Pahrump, Nevada justice of the peace (she has no law degree), misappropriated $70,000 in donations intended to honor fallen officer Alyn Beck. She spent it on personal expenses: rent, plastic surgery, and her daughter's wedding. Fiore was convicted of conspiracy to commit wire fraud and six counts of wire fraud.

Fiore could face significant prison time. Typically, each count of wire fraud carries a maximum sentence of up to 20 years in federal prison. With six counts of wire fraud plus the conspiracy charge, Fiore could theoretically face over 100 years in prison if convicted on all counts and given maximum sentences to be served consecutively.

But if Trump wins he will free her on his first day in office

I mean.......I don't know how to feel about this. On the one hand, fuck the police. On the other hand, fuck this judge.

........I guess fuck this judge for the sole purpose that I don't want to set a dangerous precident that it's ok for judges to do this. Because eventually it won't be cops they do it to.

Yeah, stealing community donations and spending it on yourself is foul no matter what
