Judge removed for “pattern of dishonesty”

Louisiana Supreme Court removes
EBR judge for ‘pattern of
dishonesty’
NEW ORLEANS — The Louisiana
Supreme Court on Thursday removed
an East Baton Rouge Parish judge from
the bench, finding that she lied to voters
while running for office in 2020 and
to police as they investigated a car burglary
earlier that year.
The justices voted 4-3 to remove Tiffany
Foxworth-Roberts from the 19th
Judicial District bench and bar her
from seeking office for five years. Writing
for the majority, Chief Justice John
Weimer said the former judge’s misconduct
“is serious and not isolated.
She displayed a pattern of dishonesty.”
