InmanChristopher Slobogin
Stephen C. O’Connell Chair; Affiliate Professor of Psychiatry; Adjunct Professor, University of South Florida Mental Health Institute; Associate Director, Center for Children and Families

  • St. Petersburg Times, March 12. Quoted in article discussing a Tampa judge who allegedly allowed a New York City stripper to put thousands of dollars into his bank accounts so she could avoid repaying her credit card debt. The stripper is planning on suing the judge for money that she says he owes her. Slobogin said, judicial canons call for judges to be scrupulous about their finances and helping someone avoid creditors would constitute an ethical violation, if not make a judge an accomplice to a crime. "That would be a problem for a judge if this turns out to be true," Slobogin said. "They need to bend over backward to avoid situations that appear compromising."
