The Eastern District Court of Missouri has recused every one of its judges from a lawsuit alleging shocking corruption in the Missouri family court system.

Attorney Evita Tolu filed the lawsuit in the 21st Judicial Circuit Court of St. Louis against guardian ad litem (GAL) Elaine Pudlowski, psychologist Dr. James Reid, and therapist Jennifer Webbe VanLuven, alleging that the trio conspired to diagnose her with a fraudulent mental disorder and use her custody dispute as an opportunity to get rich while sentencing her children to life with their abuser.

it would be nice if someone would aggregate the stats for judges so that we could easily tell which one was corrupted. For example, if there is a judge that doesn't imprison "people" for armed robbery then they need to be disbarred (or imprisoned themselves) because they are responsible for everything that individual does while in the public. similar for differentials in punishments based on race/sex.
