Unique Marriage of a Judge to the Wife at the Crook He Sentenced
A California judge, Guy F. Bush, marries Leila Hewitt, the former spouse of men he sentenced for oil swindles. The case centers on LeGrand and Wagner’s two-year terms reduced to six months and $5,000 restitution, amid divorce actions and a scandal that prompted the judge’s resignation and ongoing scrutiny by the Los Angeles Bar.
