District Judge Erika Ballou of Las Vegas, known for her 'anti-cop' stance and as a former member of the Democratic Socialists of America, is facing allegations of ethics violations related to a series of social media posts. These include a photo in a hot tub with public defenders, which has raised questions about her fairness and integrity. The complaint, filed last week, claims that these posts violated Nevada’s code of judicial conduct. In response to the potential discipline, Ballou quoted lyrics from a Cardi B song.
