"A state oversight panel found probable cause to bring formal disciplinary charges against a Miami-Dade judge in an investigation that began after the Miami Herald published her text messages denigrating a fellow judge and pressuring Miami-Dade State Attorney Katherine Fernandez Rundle about one of Miami's biggest criminal cases."
"The 22-page document outlining the allegations and charges against Judge Bronwyn Miller, a former prosecutor and current judge on Miami's 3rd District Court of Appeal, was filed Thursday evening with the Florida Supreme Court."
""Your communications cast reasonable doubt on your capacity to act impartially as a judge, undermine your appearance of integrity and impartiality, demean the judicial office, interfere with your proper performance of judicial duties, may lead to your frequent disqualification, and appear to be coercive," the Florida Judicial Qualifications Commission said."
