The judge and the defense attorney had run into each other one day in court and were having a casual conversation during which Amos told Miller that the defendants coming through his court were not “your regular wetbacks,” according to the complaint.
I fail to see how a judge who refers to the people in his courtroom via slurs can be impartial in his decisions.
This is Texas. As far as they’re concerned, calling them “people” would be the slur, and calling them “wetbacks” is acceptable just in case the person you’re talking to doesn’t know what a “spic” is.

This was in Texas. I’m sure the Judge doesn’t even think of that as a problem there.
