A Detroit judge who was temporarily removed after ordering a teenager into jail clothes and handcuffs during a field trip is back on the bench but assigned to speeding tickets and other relatively minor offenses.

Judge Kenneth King lost courtroom duties in August and was ordered into social-emotional training by the chief judge at 36th District Court. Instead of handling key hearings in major felonies, he returned this week to the court’s traffic division.

“We appreciate his efforts in preparing for this role, and wish him success as he transitions into this new responsibility,” Judge William McConico said in a written statement.

    Typical liberal “rules for me but not for thee” BS. And to top it off, you add the cute little sneer at the end as an edit.

    Christ you people are predictable.

      Christ you people are predictable.

      A .ml accusing anyone they disagree with of being a liberal and blaming others of being predictable. Classic.

      Liberal? That’s generally more conservative behavior. But only because conservatives lean more authoritarian which is where that behavior actually stems from, not political leaning.
