Atlanta Strip Clubs: Challenges being filed in federal court rulings by Judge Jack Camp
Posted on December 24th, 2010 in Atlanta strip clubs
Camp, a senior federal judge, was charged with buying and using drugs with a stripper working as an undercover informant. Some defense attorneys were already working on challenges when Camp stepped down from the bench in November and pleaded guilty to a felony drug charge and two misdemeanors.

Camp pleaded guilty Nov. 19 to a felony charge of aiding and abetting a felon’s possession of cocaine when he bought drugs for the stripper, who was secretly cooperating with authorities. Camp also pleaded guilty to two misdemeanors: possession of illegal drugs and illegally giving the stripper his government-issued laptop.
Two weeks later, after the court appearance, Yates announced that a female witness who had a relationship with the judge — she would not say if the woman was the stripper — suggested the judge had a racial bias. She told prosecutors that Camp said he had a difficult time sentencing black men because they reminded him of someone he did not like.
