Georgia Republicans File Impeachment Resolutions Against Federal Judge Eleanor Ross Over Misconduct Allegations
Two congressional Republicans from Georgia, U.S. Reps. Clay Fuller and Andrew Clyde, have introduced impeachment resolutions against U.S. District Judge Eleanor Ross. This action follows an investigation that found Ross engaged in sexual activity with a police officer in her chambers, attended a partisan political event, and lied to investigators. The investigation was initiated after a law clerk reported the misconduct. Judge Ross, who was appointed by then-President Barack Obama in 2014, received a private reprimand after the investigation confirmed the allegations. The House Judiciary Committee will decide whether to proceed with impeachment proceedings. The Atlanta Police Department is also investigating whether the involved officer is a member of their department.
