Judge olds shouldn’t be a judge. face it she only got the post because of her race and sex.

she is anti-father, anti-men, where else can a female rapist get a PR bond and walk out of court. where a first time male rapist would get a huge bond if he gets one at all

SHE MUST GO, JUDGE OLD MUST GO..

Let me say that I am sick and tired of reading about African-Americans that are in a position to do the right thing by other deserving African-Americans, but they don’t. It sounds to me like the two or three people in that position are more worried about THEIR political appearance than doing what is right for the citizens that THEY are supposed to be representing. There is no doubt in my mind or anyone with a mind that Judge Olds is the BEST choice for the Circuit Court. Who else would you want to hear YOUR case, a well educated, experienced and wise judge of 13 years, or someone who is being used as a token just to say they put another African-American on the bench? For me, I’ll take Judge Olds and all of that comes with her. Because I’ll know that whatever she ruled would be fair.

sleepless – yes there is something that we can do. We can contact Senator Yvonne Miller, Senator Louise Lucas, Delegate John Cosgrove, and Delegate Kenneth Melvin and let them know that Judge Olds is the BEST qualified person for this position.

What a fascinating story and what a shame that such a bright and talented woman is having the difficulties becoming a circuit court judge. And her sister is a doctor, yet!!! What a family that must be.

Anyway, is there anything that we can do at the grassroots to fix this problem? Does this story need wider coverage? Or is there more to learn on this?

Judge Olds is very deserving of this position. Just goes to show you that women in a male dominated field have a much harder time of it!
