A misconduct complaint has been filed against a federal judge in California after the 13-year old daughter of a defendant was handcuffed in court as she cried in an attempt to scare her, court documents said.U.S District Judge Roger Benitez, who sits on the bench in San Diego, was conducting a revocation of a supervised release hearing on Feb. 13.
Benitez then ordered the 13-year-old to leave the spectator area, approach the front of the courtroom and stand next to her father’s lawyer, the transcripts state. The judge released her and had her uncuffed. He told her she was “an awfully cute young lady” but that if she didn’t stay away from drugs, she would “wind up in cuffs” and be “right back there where I put you a minute ago,” the documents stated.
