Judge says porn countered stress


Sobbing at times, Saline County District Court Judge George Robertson told a state panel that stress from his duties as a church elder and a caseload of more than 3,000 cases a year caused him to view Internet porn sites on his county-owned office computer.

Robertson, who has been a district judge for 10 years, appeared before the state's Commission on Judicial Qualifications on Wednesday in an attempt to keep his job. The panel took the case under advisement and eventually will submit a report to the state Supreme Court.

A county computer technician discovered in early February that the judge had visited numerous pornographic sites. When confronted by Saline County Chief Judge Daniel Hebert, Robertson admitted visiting the sites.

Robertson, 56, has been suspended with pay since the history of porn sites was discovered on his computer.

He testified that he stumbled onto Internet pornography by accident while viewing a Web site related to his hobby of raising poultry.

He said from that site, he typed in the words "baby chicks" and "I found what I shouldn't have found."

Robertson said that while he went to the sites frequently, he didn't stay for more than a few minutes at a time.

But Hebert testified that it would be tough to assign Robertson to cover any type of court cases because "A judge's stock and trade is good judgment and there has been a severe lapse in good judgment that could be viewed as very offensive to the public."

Visiting the Web sites wasn't illegal, but it does break both county and local district court rules against improper computer use, officials said.

i don't blame him.... i rub one off whenever i need to cool out (in the absence of some chronic).... good 4 him :D

Cool... porn reduces stress.
Yes, your honor, I agree completely! :)

Actually there was a (McKee-Lumby-Albury) report in Australia last year, which was taxpayer-funded and surveyed over a thousand porn surfers. Conclusion was that pornography is actually good for you in many ways.

But it's always nice to hear one more judge speaking out pro-porno. :D

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to understand the most obvious of things. A little porn, a little fantasizing and a good pull on the weenie can be major stress reducers and if people spent more time doing these things in moderation there would be less hostility and less crime.

But then you have these people can't spend time in hotel rooms alone because of the temptation that really screw things up for the normal people.

Porn relieving stress..... huh, who would'a thunk it.

exactly lol

if more judges will follow him better for all of us with their salary they can afford to get them selfes alot of paysites memberships ! :) LOL

I personally don't see what the big deal is. So what the guy looked at some porn and got his rocks off. I can think of alot worse things to get into trouble for. Sheeeesh

Nice.. way to go Judge.. good luck!
