The Masturbating Judge
The above pictures of former Creek County, Oklahoma District Judge Donald D. Thompson document his journey from the bench to being an accused criminal, to becoming a convicted felon and lastly to becoming an inmate in the Oklahoma prison system.
On the left is his official picture, while still a judge. The second is Thompson’s ‘mugshot’, taken when he was officially charged with four felony counts of indecent exposure. The third picture was taken after his conviction when he was jailed over-night prior to being released on bail pending sentencing. The fourth picture is his official Department of Corrections ‘mugshot’, taken shortly after he entered the Oklahoma prison system.

Are they going to repeal any of the convictions under this “jackoff judge”? I doubt it, since the justice system would never even consider doing something as honorable as that.
Beyond the obvious of the lowest of ethical & legal standards held for judges is that the whimpy OBA got Thompson on failure to obtain adequate continuing legal education- not his unethical or criminal behavior. How typical that the OBA out of 1100 bar complaints 2006 only removed 4 licenses out of 15, 500. licensed attorneys. Protection of the public from bad lawyers and judges is one of the biggest scams upon the Oklahoma public they claim to serve. In an above the fold 2005 article Daily Oklahoman, in response to my complaint of concealment,that Dan Murdock claims it was because of lack of money and used HALT statistics to make a justification for a do nothing policy at the OBA. Well, now they raised their dues by about 1 million per year, an not even a glympse at discipline standard enforcement changes in ethics and professionalism makes Murdock’s claim hollow. He is very busy out “hob- knobbing” the various chapters. Since the number of investigators have not increased, and a**istance general counsels is declining, it would appear each of the three investigators is investigating 390 complaints or 586 if the supervising investigator is just supervising instead of investigating? This bar structure reveals a crack for disposing of complaints about the size of the Grand Canyon, especially when in our pro se case the a**istance general counsel retired 8 months ago and the OBA failed to inform us, the public that we were without representation on the matter. We doubt that an investigator alone is capable nor has the time or inclination to read, process and understand the bar complaint we submitted. The unethical and fraud representing attorney, the recipient of our complaint has retailiated within a tribunal which should have triggered an emergency hearing by the OBA, but not even a stir, just more reminders to “wait your turn.” Our complaint is over one year old and we get nothing, but confidential insistence to protect the fraternal arrangement of the OBA and its dues paying members.
The wheasel remarks to the Daily Oklahoman March 20, 2005 by Dan Murdock were disingenious at best and designed to decoy the public from the real OBA agenda and that agenda is: “if a decision will result in Oklahoma Attorneys being more fully funded and employed then we are for it.” (Law instructor OUHSC) They do not have the staff to investigate their alleged rules of conduct and professionalism and clearly no public interest to do so anyway. They have no interest in changing this as long as the public is unaware in their failure to protect the people they vow to serve. Further, other than the obvious that the Judicial board is composed of former judges and licensed lawyers they have a an OBA incestuous relationship within the same walls on Lincoln blvd OKC.
The failure to protect the public and the need for linking lawyer discipline to tort reform I will be happy to provide this forum. The Tulsa County Court will make any small town sherrif operation look like child’s play and the OBA with the Judicial complaints division are boldly entrenched in chronyism and self protection.
I am a concerned and very worried mother of a now incarcerated son in the Oklahoma prisons, his crime is that he was released from a Mental health stress center in Ok, Mcalester to be exact placed on a greyhound bus with symtoms of Bipolar Schizophrenia, chronic and paronoid and released with prognosis of guarded with with medicines for Psychosis. then arrested and taken to jail and placed in the mental health ward of the jail and had to go to court and was a**esed by a court appointed Theraphist and coerced into taking a blind plea by the Public Defender and now stuck with a charge of Sexual offender because he was said to have exposed himself in the bus station, no trial no evidence brought forth or no consideration that ” Hey he had been realeased from a Mental Healt facility” that was deemed unimportant. I am fighting for my son to this day. Help||||

well for the above comment with the lady using the public pretender and for anyone that happens to need one. I would suggest making a payment plan with your lawyer. public defenders are good for one thing and thats blowing you off.
Again, no money no help. I have seen this time and time again.
If you have a real paid lawyer you will get better results.
Its the system you are buying remember that. Pay the court. Has a better outcome and decision with the masturbating, embezzling judge your about to go before.
