I think he will be a great judge.
I worked with him for many years, he has the experience.
Congratulations. I relocated to San Fernando, California ACTRESS AND Music Videos.
i think hes racist against white people just watch how differently he acts to a black defendant to a white. he will try to set an example of the white one. this is a major problem in our Missouri courts. it works both ways its not just black judges against whites its also the other way around.
Justin, you are foolish. Judge Teer is biracial. I’ve known him personally for many many years, I am white and can assure you – he is NOT racist.
