MO Supremes reprimand lawyers who lent money to judge
The Missouri Supreme Court issued public reprimands Tuesday to four area lawyers who lent money to a Kansas City judge and handled cases in her courtroom.
The reprimands go on the lawyers’ permanent records and are the harshest actions taken yet against any of the lawyers who made loans to then-Kansas City Municipal Court Judge Deborah Neal.
Lawyers John Quinn, Cecil Williams, Vincent Esposito and Salvatore Mirabile “engaged in conduct that is prejudicial to the administration of justice,” the reprimands say.
They won't, however, lose their law licenses.
Hey, I know John Quinn.. He handled some speeding tickets I had a loooonng time ago.

Doesn't really matter Jewwells. "They won't, however, lose their law licenses." tells us everything we need to know. Lawyers should never be allowed to police themselves.
