She is charged with attempted murder. Sonya M. McKnight arrest: Pennsylvania magistrate judge is charged with shooting her ex-boyfriend as he slept - 6ABC Philadelphia
A suspended magistrate judge in Pennsylvania shot her estranged boyfriend in the head as he slept last weekend, police said Thursday in filing attempted murder and aggravated assault charges against her.
Tests showed Magisterial District Judge Sonya M. McKnight, 57, had gunshot residue on her hands an hour after Michael McCoy was shot in the bed of his home in the Harrisburg area early Saturday, Susquehanna Township Police wrote in an arrest affidavit.
The reason that she was suspended was also noted.
Among the pending misconduct allegations, the Judicial Conduct Board alleges that she gave excess vacation time to members of her court staff; directed an aide to ignore a woman's civil complaint that claimed McKnight owed her for a $2,100 loan; and used a Facebook profile with her photo in judicial robes to promote sales of a consumer product.
She also apparently shot her ex-husband in 2019, but the state couldn't prove that wasn't self-defense. It may have been self-defense.
I am becoming increasingly convinced that our entire system, from legislation, to criminal justice, to elections are corrupted beyond much hope of recovery.
Not only is she a murderous POS, she tried to gaslight him into believing he shot himself.
