Hmmm.. He sure did do a lot of yelling. It's a pity the Judges here don't take a harder line on lying and contempt of orders. This Judge would have had a field day with my ex. But oh no, we're too polite here to say "Liar" - soft words like "vague, evasive, not credible" get tossed around gently.
Judges in the US have been threatened by litigants and some even shot. It's understandable that this Judge would be upset imo.

If you review the Youtube videos of his disciplinary hearings you'll see that this behaviour wasn't just reserved for the pastor. He acted this way to many of the litigants who came before him.
The common thread was that many litigants felt "degraded and humiliated" with how he spoke to them (yelled I mean). The only excuse he offered aside from stress was his health and concern for his wife.
He obviously never considered that the people who appeared before him were under even more stress and had their own health problems.
He was the ONLY judge in his jurisdiction.

The judge in my case was not so polite about it . He was downright pissed off at the other party and made it very clear as to why. Same judge is also a huge pro fathers rights justice, so I was even more shocked by how he acted and what he said.

I didn't watch much of the video because I have low tolerance for idiocy, but I did Google the judge and get the backstory.
Apparently he was suspended not for behaviour like this but for being slow to produce his rulings and failing to file domestic violence orders. The screaming was a distant third reason but I'm sure the most visible.

Reminds me of a guy in the city where I live...he stole a car and very soon parked it in front of a Tim Horton's shop. You can guess who was there and arrested him on the spot!

We are all only human.
How often do you have a bad day, and screw up at work?
Do you even work?
What we see is not cool - but not worth losing a job over about either. Assuming it was one melt-down that he recognized and distanced himself from the case afterwards.
I don't know all the details - but if he followed through with the 'focus my attention on you' aspect some time later - well that's a problem.
If it was a one time outburst and he then apoligised and recused himself - well, that's just human.
It's real easy to judge people.. LOL
Just look at my latest post about airport security. That has judgement written all over it
