Blogs Agree on Bad Larry Buffington

Everyone is talking about Bad Larry Buffington.

Mississippi Perspective - We’re going to move on down to Simpson County now, and let me just say that I’m not big on telling a judge he mishandled something, but Judge Larry Buffington botched the handling of former Supreme Court Justice Oliver Diaz’s appointment from nearly the get-go.

Folo - JPC complaint for Buffoonington - Last week we shook our heads a little over the performance Simpson County Chancery Judge Larry Buffington put on at a meeting he’d called to explain his appointment of former MS Supreme Oliver Diaz as a part-time public defender. Now Buffington has apparently collected himself a JPC complaint for his trouble.

Sid Salter - Judge Buffington: Has he finally stepped in it?

Clarion Ledger - Complaint lodged in hiring of ex-justice

Respond Mississippi - Larry Buffington: Admissions Caught On Tape - It ain't getting better for Judge Larry Buffington. Now a complaint has been filed against him with the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance. And the evidence, as shown on WLBT, is pretty strong.

  2. I only hope our judicial ethics commission will do something about this guy. It isn't just Simpson County, he is running roughshod over the rights of the supervisors in Smith County, too!

  3. I understand some competitors for the bid for Covington County's hospital are not too excited that Buffington pulled the supervisors' strings to get his friend the contract. There might be more than a judicial commission complaint coming out of that.

  4. His big mouth is getting him into even more trouble!
