MUSIC VIDEO from the WWW Department of True Names

Today's music video is inspired by news from Texas. Seems that the Texas State Commission on Judicial Conduct has suspended, without pay, County Court-at-law No. 13 Judge Rosie Speedlin Gonzalez, a week after she was arrested on charges of official oppression and unlawful restraint of a San Antonio defense attorney. 


The suspension order, issued yesterday, will remain in effect until the judge's criminal cases are dismissed, she [Ed., please check pronouns] is acquitted, or another order is issued by the commission.

The charges stem from an incident a year ago in which she had San Antonio defence attorney Elizabeth Russell handcuffed in court after a disagreement. The indictment alleges that Judge Speedlin Gonzalez "did then and there intentionally or knowingly restrain Elizabeth Russell, the Complainant, by restricting the Complainant's movements without her consent, so as to interfere substantially with her liberty." 

She was indicted last Thursday by a grand jury on both charges and was booked at the Bexar County jail before being released on bond. In a statement to the San Antonio Express-News, Herroner/Hizzoner [Ed.???] said she was innocent of all charges. "I will follow all protocols and directives while the matter is pending and we, my lawyer and I, plan to zealously appeal. We are confident I will be absolved of all allegations."

Here's the inevitable video, then, by Pat Boone. Whatever happened to him?
