Former Judge Consents To Disbarment
An attorney who had “stabbed his wife multiple times” has consented to disbarment in Arizona.
The crime took place on August 17 2017
during a domestic disturbance at Respondent’s home. Respondent stabbed his wife several times. When initially questioned by the police at the hospital, Respondent and his wife said the attacker was unknown.
The wife told the truth about a month later. The attorney – a municipal judge at the time – admitted the crimes.
He also had “got[ten] rid” of the knife and bloody bedding.
He pleaded guilty to a Class 3 Felony Assault and a Domestic Violence offense and served four months incarceration. ( Mike Frisch)
