California Judge Arrested for Drinking Alcohol While on Bail for Wife's Murder

Judge Jeffrey Ferguson's bail doubled to $2 million after court finds he lied about alcohol consumption.

Judge Jeffrey Ferguson was taken into custody after a judge determined he lied about drinking alcohol while out on bail.
Ferguson, charged with the murder of his wife Sheryl, had his bail increased from $1 million to $2 million.
The judge dismissed Ferguson's claim that hand sanitizer and cortisone cream caused a false-positive reading on his alcohol monitor.
Ferguson was required to wear an ankle monitor as part of his bail conditions, which detected alcohol use in late August.
Authorities found 47 weapons and over 26,000 rounds of ammunition at Ferguson's home following the shooting incident last year.
