But they are not immune from criminal sanctions, and there is no question Acker violated Sec. 242--and he probably had conspirators in the process. Getting a U.S. attorney to push the case would be hard, but there is no doubt Acker is a criminal--and so are a bunch of other state and federal judges in Alabama.legalschnauzerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09619089628125964154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3669412675139526125.post-2822096121812651542013-02-12T11:50:15.100-06:002013-02-12T11:50:15.100-06:00Interesting information about Judge Acker and that...Interesting information about Judge Acker and that criminal statute.
