GBI Files Complaint Against Judge

The director of the Georgia Bureau of Investigation has filed a judicial complaint against Superior Court Judge Kristina Cook Connelly. In the complaint, Vernon Keenan alleges the high-profile judge violated judicial ethics by repeatedly cursing at law enforcement officers about their handling of a drug investigation. The complaint says Connelly was upset because she thought agents investigating illegal drug activity asked a confidential informant about her. GBI spokesman John Bankhead said the agency has never investigated Connelly for illegal drug activity.
