A New Jersey Superior Court judge was removed from his position after several misconduct claims, including because he asked an alleged rape victim how she tried to stop an assault.
Judge John F. Russo Jr. was ordered removed from his position by the New Jersey Supreme Court, according to Chief Justice Stuart Rabner in a court opinion filed May 26. The removal is effective immediately and permanently bars Russo -- who served in Ocean County -- from holding a judicial office in New Jersey, according to the order.The removal comes after a complaint was filed in August 2018 by the Supreme Court of New Jersey Advisory Committee on Judicial Conduct, the opinion said.
"In response to another count in the opinion, Rabner said that Russo had a nine-minute phone exchange in front of a crowded courtroom with a woman who was a defendant of a paternity case. He called the woman, who missed her court date. When the woman phoned back, the call was routed to the Russo's courtroom. The woman told Russo she didn't attend because she"was very scared," it said in the opinion.
