Oklahoma judge could be removed from office for sending more than 500 texts during a murder trial

A new Oklahoma judge faces the possibility of losing her position due to sending over 500 text messages to her bailiff during a murder trial.

These messages included comments that mocked the prosecutor, praised the defense attorney, and labeled a key witness as dishonest.

In a court filing on Tuesday, the chief justice of the Oklahoma Supreme Court recommended the removal of Lincoln County District Judge Traci Soderstrom.

This recommendation followed an investigation by the state’s Council on Judicial Complaints, the Associated Press reported.
