The Nevada Judge Conrad Hafen, voted out of office for handcuffing a female public defender, now is caught discriminating against the media in his courtroom

I wrote in May of 2016 about a Nevada judge, Conrad Hafen, who handcuffed a female public defender for making constitutional arguments on behalf of her indigent client against jail time - when the judge did not want to hear it.

After an outrage in the media about that case, Judge Hafen was voted out of office - and the sexist Judge Hafen lost his judicial seat to a woman, a poetic justice.

But, unfortunately, judge Hafen was not taken off the bench, as he should have been.

And, until his successor takes the bench, Judge Hafen remains as King of the bench.

Judge Hafen did not change his ways or views - that he can "control his courtroom" on his personal whims.

And, he is now full of vengeance - against those who made his voting out of office possible, the media.

Recently, Judge Hafen was caught doing two more illegal things - throwing alleged victims' relatives out of the courtroom during a criminal arraignment open to the public, and now threatening to arrest and handcuff a reporter if he would use his cellphone for audio recording or taking pictures - which was allowed to other people present in the courtroom.

Apparently, it is not enough to vote Judge Hafen out of office, it is necessary to also take him off that bench, quickly, and to make sure he would never again get into a position of power over people.
