Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore, the man who put the Ten Commandments on display and was suspended as a result, is having his hearing today to see if he will keep his job:
Suspended Chief Justice Roy Moore's job hangs in the balance today as he goes on trial on ethics charges before the state Court of the Judiciary.
Attorney General Bill Pryor will argue that Moore has flagrantly violated the law by defying a federal court order and must be removed from office to protect the state judicial system and the public.
Moore's attorneys will argue that the judge violated no law when he refused to remove a Ten Commandments monument from the state judicial building rotunda and should be restored to his full duties as chief justice. Moore won't say whether he will take the witness stand.
Should be interesting.
