Navigation Florida judges speak out about threats amid national push for judicial safety
Dixie Country Judge Jennifer Johnson: ‘I’m very happy to be a part of Speak up for Justice and to see our state and our nation looking at ways to protect the judiciary and looking at getting the resources that we need to analyze threats.’
Two Florida state judges describe the death threats, harassment, and cyberstalking they endured following recent adverse rulings, as they join a growing national call for enhanced judicial security.
The September 25 “Speak up for Justice” forum, “Unprotected and Under Fire: State Judges at Risk as Congress Weighs Action,” included Dixie Country Judge Jennifer Johnson and Miami-Dade County Judge Carroll J. Kelly.
