Night of heated judicial clash atCandidates Night
Judicial candidates sparred over juvenile policy and reform during last night's Jaycee Candidates Night in the Broiler Steak House. A.B. "Bev" Broaddus attacked incumbent Superior Judge Robert Winslow on law knowledge while Merle Orchard faulted the court's handling of juvenile matters. Both advocated restitution and work programs for youths, with Broaddus proposing enforced weekend and summer work under the probation department and an area juvenile council. Winslow noted work restitution exists and warned against using minors to police or forestry duties, amid a charged, televised session moderated by Gerald Newton.
