Judges in jail

Barrister and part-time judge Constance Briscoe was jailed for 16 months for perverting the course of justice in charges related to the Chris Huhne affair. She is far from the first judge to end up behind bars.
— In 2009 Marcus Einfield, a former judge at Australia’s federal court, was
given three years for lying over a speeding offence: he said he had lent his
car to a friend who in fact had been killed in a car accident three years
earlier.
