Love at the Bang of the Gavel

A judge who fell for the defendant’s girlfriend is in trouble after offering to put his rival away for a long time.

The 63-year-old justice from Munich, named only as Wolfgang W for legal reasons, sent the 30-year-old woman text messages.

He told her he wanted to bed her after they went out for dinner together during her boyfriend’s robbery trial.

But the woman turned on the judge when he sent her a text saying: “I could lock him up for a long time, so that you can get some peace,” and she showed the messages to her boyfriend’s lawyer.

The judge has now been taken off the case and is facing disciplinary action as well as charges of abuse of office, which carries up to five years in prison.
