Went to rehab, admitted to relapse
A Florida judge who created a "drug court" to divert misdemeanor pot users into treatment allegedly came to the courtroom so inebriated she had to be removed from the premises by a chief judge and landed in rehab two days later.
On December 17, Broward County Judge Gisele Pollack, 55, abruptly adjourned a misdemeanor drug hearing after only 90 minutes, apparently because she was very, very drunk.
