ROCKY HILL, Conn.
A Connecticut judge charged with a DUI months ago has request she be placed on administrative duties pending the outcome of her judicial review hearing.
Hartford Superior Court Judge Curtissa Cofield was arrested in October after police said she struck a state trooper's cruiser with her car. The trooper was parked in a construction zone on Route 2 in Glastonbury.
A videotape was released earlier in the week that shows Cofield making racial remarks at the police station following her arrest.
On the videotape, Cofield, who is black, asked Sgt. Dwight Washington, who is also black, "if a Negro was sent to arrest a Negro." She also called herself the most intelligent person in the room.
When asked if she was drunk or sick, Cofield said she “was suffering from Negroitis.”
