2 Ex-Judges Lose Georgia Law Licenses

TLANTA - The Georgia Supreme Court has accepted former Senior U.S. District Judge Jack Camp's voluntary surrender of his license to practice law, and has disbarred former Alapaha Circuit Superior Court Judge Brooks E. Blitch III.

Camp pleaded guilty in November to aiding and abetting a felon's possession of cocaine when he bought drugs for a stripper. He also pleaded guilty to possession of illegal drugs and illegally giving the stripper his govement-issued laptop.

Camp stepped down from the bench and agreed to cooperate with authorities looking into cases he handled while he was being investigated.

In 2009, Blitch pleaded guilty to a federal corruption charge and was sentenced to three years on probation and a fine of $100,000. He resigned after Georgia's Judicial Qualifications Commission brought charges against him.
