From a complaint brought by the Oklahoma Attorney General to remove elected trial judge Donald D. Thompson from the bench (he was removed and was recently charged with indecent exposure):
Judge Thompson violated these Canons [of judicial ethics] by his repeated use of a device known as a penis pump during non-jury and jury trials in his courtroom and in the presence of court employees while serving in his capacity as district judge. He also violated these Canons by placing himself in a position where his court reporter viewed his penis on a number of occasions while he was serving in his capacity as district judge.
….
His immodest conduct in putting himself in the position where his court reporter could see his penis, both erect and non-erect, from fifteen to twenty times, including seeing him masturbate and lift his penis and shave underneath with a razor, is conduct which is morally reprehensible and deserving of removal.
Words fail me.
