Divorce judge starts beating off during court session

Chris Spags Founder and Editor

Divorce is an ugly ugly situation. Unless you’re a judge who needs to get off, then, by all means. Such is the case with Judge Kevin Moriarty, a Kansas judge who allegedly started whacking it after asking a couple getting divorced about the wife’s underwear and sex life.

A district court judge appeared to be masturbating and used foul language during a divorce mediation, an attorney claims in Federal Court. The attorney claims Judge Kevin P. Moriarty’s actions were so offensive even her estranged husband complained about it during their divorce trial.

Kimberly Ireland claims that while mediating, Judge Kevin P. Moriarty tried to discuss her underwear and her sex life, though neither was relevant to the divorce matter. And she claims that “Moriarty appeared to be masturbating during the mediation.”

Ireland says that Moriarty’s actions were so outrageous that her estranged husband Kevin testified about them at the divorce trial.

Well maybe she shouldn’t have been leading the poor judge on so much. All this talk about “alimony” and “legal separation” clearly brought the innocent judge to a dirty place. If you didn’t want strange men to be beating off in your presence, maybe you shouldn’t be trying to be single? That’s pretty much step #1 in Chris’s Big Book of Courtship. Step #2: Getting her to lift the restraining order.

Update: An angry reader sent along this article from KCTV in Kansas City which features Moriarty’s rebuttal. Who to believe? I’d be inclined to think that a Judge who passed the bar in any state probably didn’t start beating off in a mediation case. But at the same time, it is very funny to think that he did. So you can see my dilemma.

In a letter written to the commission, Moriarty said:

“I can assure you at no time was I ever acting in the role of a judge, using profanity repeatedly, directing the word f— to her, discussing her sex life or her panties, or in any way intentionally intimidating her or attempting to sexually harass her. For her to say ‘the majority of the time we were in the courtroom, it appeared as if judge Moriarty was masturbating under the bench,’ is a complete lie.”

Moriarty also said in the letter that he believed her reasons for making the claims were to embarrass and humiliate him. And he believes the reasons were more the work of her law partner, Aaron McKee, who has said has appeared before him numerous times.

The chief judge spoke on behalf of Moriarty who did not wish to comment.

“To give these outrageous allegations against a well respected judge on the 10th Judicial bench any notoriety is a severe disservice to the judge,” the chief judge said.
