Moore County Superior Court Judge James Webb drew the ire of the North Carolina appellate court after Webb sought to reduce jail time for an adult male convicted of raping a female child, age 8 at the time, reports citizen journalist John Zumwalt.
During a pre-recorded broadcast that aired on April 2, 2023, on radio station WEEB, Zumwalt described graphic detail stemming from testimony during the trial of the male, age 18 at the time, in Webb’s courtroom. Not only did examination of the rape victim support the charges, the accused admitted to guilt during the proceeding. The father of the accused supported his son’s admission.
Zumwalt reported that Webb ignored sentencing guidelines when Webb ruled that the sentence imposed on the teen-ager would be cut in half.
The North Carolina Court of Appeals ultimately condemned Webb’s ruling and restored the full sentence. The convicted rapist is jailed until 2037.
Webb, senior resident judge in Moore County District 19D, will leave the bench when his term expires December 31, 2024, at which time he will be ineligible for re-election due to a state-imposed age restriction.
Zumwalt previously reported on WEEB that he has collected evidence from citizens appearing in Webb’s courtroom that Webb offered to waive a monthly probation fee of $40 in a deal to compel defendants to consent to receiving an mRNA shot alleged to protect against COVID-19, a.k.a., the Wuhan Virus.
A number of these defendants have accepted the offer, Zumwalt reports, because they are not in a position financially to turn down free income of $480 annually. These revelations emerge as research scientists and physicians are warning about unintended side effects linked to the mRNA jabs, including heart inflammation among healthy young adults. Warnings about the shoot’s side effects also have been issued to women who are pregnant or contemplating pregnancy.
Zumwalt reports that he has not determined the legal grounds on which Webb has offered to waive the probation fees, or the authority he possesses to compel defendants to provide proof of receipt of an mRNA shot.
