A local judge has pled guilty to sexual assault. No, not the local federal judge, the
otherlocal judge accused of feeling up underlings' breasts. We sure have a a fun bunch of jurists around here.
Brazoria County Court at Law Judge James Blackstock resigned and entered his guilty plea today.
The price for a feel? $350 each for four sexual assaults.
Hope it was worth it, asshole.

Keep the Houston Press Free... Since we started the Houston Press, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Houston, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Houston with no paywalls.
