OKLAHOMA CITY (Reuters) - Oklahoma's attorney general wants a state judge
removed on suspicion he frequently masturbated and used a device for
enhancing erections while his court was in session, a spokesman for the
office said on Thursday.
Attorney General Drew Edmondson filed a petition on Wednesday with state
judicial authorities seeking the removal of Sapulpa District Judge Donald
Thompson, 57, for "conduct constituting an offense involving moral turpitude
in violation of the Oklahoma Constitution."
Thompson was not immediately available for comment. The judge, elected to
the bench in the state's nonpartisan judicial elections, is based about 80
miles northeast of Oklahoma City.
In the petition, the attorney general charged Thompson used a penis pump, a
device billed as providing sexual pleasure and promising better erections
and larger penis size, during trials and exposed himself to a court reporter
several times while masturbating on the bench.
"On one occasion, Ms. (Lisa) Foster (Thompson's court reporter for 15 years)
saw Judge Thompson holding his penis up and shaving underneath it with a
disposable razor while on the bench," the petition reads.
Several witnesses, including jurors in Thompson's court and police officers
called to testify in trials, said in the petition they heard the "swooshing"
sound of a penis pump during trials and saw the judge slumped in his chair,
with his elbows on his knees, working the device. The witnesses said the
pump sounded like a blood pressure cuff being pumped up.
According to the petition, Thompson admitted he had a penis pump under the
bench during a murder trial but he told investigators it was a gag gift from
a friend.
The petition also charges Thompson with firing his former court reporter after she cooperated with investigators
