US District Judge Eleanor Ross admitted to "patently wrong" actions, including having sex in a courthouse with a police officer, attending a partisan event, and initially lying about the allegations. An investigation was initiated last year by the chief judge of the 11th Judicial Circuit.
Two Georgia Republicans, Reps. Clay Fuller and Andrew Clyde, have filed impeachment resolutions against U.S. District Judge Eleanor Ross. The resolutions follow an investigation that found Ross engaged in sexual activity with a police officer in her chambers, attended a partisan event, and lied to investigators.
The US Department of Justice has filed a motion for Judge Eleanor Ross to recuse herself from a case involving Georgia election records, citing potential bias due to her alleged attendance at a 2024 victory party for Fulton County DA Fani Willis, who prosecuted Donald Trump.
