In between there, you have the Sheriffs, the coronors and all those nice people who are often not seen as Officers of the Law. Or as we say Law Enforcment Officers. Ultimately, the Judge is the higher one in the food chain there and can by his rank in most states carry concealed. As a mater of fact, there are states that have laws that permit the imediate family of a judge to also carry for self defence. As always, the news article is a bit off skew but from what i have read of it, the Police asked the Judge if he had a gun on him concealed. The Judge then said yes and produced it, yes he is allowed to carry, wether the common police knows it or not, thats an other matter. WHat gets me is the gun was not registered in his name. The last paperwork came up to some one who sold the gun to a person he has no records of.

LOL a judge cannot arrest you only order your arrest, a cop has to perform the arrest itself, but I understand what you're saying. He can sort of arrest you. Perhaps there is some nuance I'm missing, if so please post it, would love to read how we have no seperation of powers
