Update on "Go Back to Nicaragua"

I received several emails about this yesterday and today while I was in Florida, thank you to everyone who kept me informed.

As you'll recall, Blount County Circuit Court Judge W. Dale Young told a LEGAL immigrant who had come to his court seeking an order of protection against her verbally abusive estranged husband to "go back to Nicaragua". This was a flagrant violation of her right to due process in a U.S. court.

Fortunately, Judge Young is apparently now under judicial conduct review:

On Wednesday, Jim LaRue, an investigator for the Tennessee Court of the Judiciary, was in Maryville conducting interviews focused on Young’s behavior on Sept. 7 during an order of protection hearing.

David Byrne, assistant general counsel for the administrative office of the Tennessee Supreme Court, confirmed that LaRue is an investigator working on an investigation in Blount County.

Good. He ought to be removed from the bench for his complete and utter disregard for the U.S. Constitution.

By the way, I'm still waiting for the people who go on and on about "all them illegals coming in" but claim that they're all in favor of legal immigration to condemn what happened here. If it's truly a question of legality vs. illegality, and not a question of you just not liking brown people, then surely you'd be outraged at a legal immigrant being treated this way by a U.S. court, right?

RIIIIIIIGHT?

UPDATE 2: Jim Boyd answered my question on a Tennessean forum that had nothing to do with immigration but somehow got onto that topic. This pisses him off too. Good on him for not being a complete and utter hypocrite, but I'm still waiting to hear back from the rest of the conservatives.
