NYC judge punishes woman for answering questionnaire honestly from Stop The ACLU by JonJayRay A blatant denial of free speech “A federal judge in New York reportedly sentenced a Brooklyn woman to indefinite jury duty after she made racist remarks toward minorities. “This is an outrage, and so are you!” Federal Judge Nicholas Garaufis told the woman as he held up her juror questionnaire, the New York Daily News reports. The unidentified juror — an Asian woman in her 20s who said she works in the garment industry — was being screened for jury duty on Tuesday in the death penalty trial of Bonanno crime boss Vincent “Vinny Gorgeous” Basciano. Asked to name three people she least admired, the woman wrote on her questionnaire: “African-Americans, Hispanics and Haitians.” When Garaufis asked why she answered the question that way, the woman replied, “You always hear about them in the news doing something.” Garaufis then instructed the court that the woman would be seeing a lot of Brooklyn Federal Court in coming days. “She’s coming back [today], Thursday and Friday — and until the future, when I am ready to dismiss her,” he said. Source It’s the judge who should be charged. He is certainly misusing the processes of the court. stoptheaclu.com
