Commission on Judicial Conduct should investigate Judge Sharon keller

Texas Court of Criminal Appeals Presiding Judge Sharon Keller closed the
court's office at 5 PM on an execution day without consulting any of the
other judges on the court. As a result, a man was executed without being
able to have the merits of his last appeal considered by the justice system. To close at 5 PM and refuse to accept an appeal by a person about to be executed is a violation of judicial responsibility. When a person is about to be executed, our state's highest criminal court needs to remain open for business. Keller should resign or be impeached and removed from office for her unethical conduct. This is not the first time that Keller has behaved like a buffoon. According to Tom Price, one of the other conservative judges on the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals, as far back as 2001 she made Texas' highest criminal appeals court "a national laughingstock." As long as Keller is in office, the people of Texas can not be sure that justice is being done with integrity.
