Judge needs to be ousted from office

I read that First District Judge Barbara Buchanan is presiding over a murder case now. I am worried that justice will not be served. This judge has plainly shown she is more concerned for the convicted criminal than the victims, even a child. Recently, a convicted pedophile of seven rape charges received just 90 days in jail, not prison. This is the type of justice Judge Buchanan gives out in her court. The convicted pedophile will be out in our community again soon.

The victim had to leave town and try to overcome the mental and physical trauma she encured. What about the victim’s parents and siblings? Imagine how the parents and siblings were agonizing over knowing how this criminal violated their family member. I guess they don’t count. This pedophile was a commissioner for a local fire district. He used his authority to force himself on the victim who was going through training to become a firefighters. This criminal also put a black eye on the fire service for which I am personally involved. The state of Idaho requested a 15-year sentence for this convicted criminal, minimum. Not hardly enough punishment as far as I am concerned. Tell me what justice was served here?

Please join me in contacting your state representatives to ask what we/they need to do to oust this unworthy district judge.
