The Governor’s Office and a state legislator are separately exploring ways to address the lack of transparency and public accountability with how Arizona investigates and disciplines judges. abc15
The officials’ new focus on Arizona’s Commission on Judicial Conduct is because of ABC15’s Honorable investigation, which exposed “astonishing and horrific” misconduct that was kept hidden.
Last year, ABC15 exposed how former Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Erin Otis and her staff frequently mocked and ridiculed people during hearings and trials, including death penalty cases, by routinely emailing each other cruel, racial, and obscene statements, jokes, and memes.The commission, which has refused ABC15’s requests to release underlying case records, issued Otis a private warning letter instead of sustaining the complaint.
Those rules make the following commission documents confidential: correspondence, drafts, computer records, investigative reports, attorney work product, deliberations, and most records in dismissed cases. Throughout ABC15’s investigation, the commission declined to produce more information about its investigation into Otis.
