Delegates vote to impeach all four remaining WV Supreme Court justices
CHARLESTON, W.Va. — Making West Virginia political history, the House Judiciary Committee has voted in favor of impeachment articles for all four remaining members of the state Supreme Court.
Only former Justice Menis Ketchum was spared because he announced his resignation the day before impeachment proceedings were set to begin.
“It’s really a sad day for the state, and nobody should be celebrating,” House Judiciary Chairman John Shott, R-Mercer, said Tuesday at the end of a nine-hour day of impeachment consideration.
