Here is a bizarre story that seems destined to appear on one of the real crime television shows. A circuit judge in Madison County, Illinoi (a suburb of St. Louis) is in hot water because he housed a criminal who has been charged with murder and assault. The judge, while claiming to not have had a sexual relationship with the criminal, is homosexual and had the criminal living at his home with him.
" David E. Fields and an unidentified man burst into an apartment, struck two women, then shot Carl Z. Silas in the face in front of two children, according to police.
Fields, who previously resided with St. Clair County Circuit Judge Ronald Duebbert, was charged late Tuesday with two counts of first-degree murder."
End excerpt.
A special prosecutor has been appointed to consider charges against Judge Duebbert in the case.
From the article:
"A special prosecutor was appointed Wednesday to decide whether obstruction-of-justice charges should be filed against St. Clair County Circuit Judge Ronald Duebbert in connection with a murder case.
St. Clair County County State’s Attorney Brendan Kelly requested the appointment of a special prosecutor in the case. In the motion, Kelly stated the subject matter of the case involves the offense of obstructing justice.
Duebbert was interviewed Friday by the Major Case Squad, which was investigating the killing of Carl Z. Silas, who was shot in the face in front of two children. The Major Case Squad was called out on Friday at 5 a.m. after a home invasion and shooting at 2913 West Boulevard near Belleville. Duebbert, at the time, told the News-Democrat that his former roommate, David E. Fields, 20, was "a person of interest†in Silas’ killing. Fields was charged with murder Tuesday.
During the course of the murder investigation, the Major Case Squad requested charges against Duebbert, according to Kelly."
End excerpt.
The judge may well have taken in this guy as a matter of "Christian charity" as he claimed, but it certainly does look suspicious.
This may wind up on 48 Hours at some point.
