Second Judge Recuses Herself from YSL RICO Trial

Judge Shukura Ingram steps down due to a connection with a courthouse deputy involved with a defendant.

Judge Ingram replaced Judge Ural Glanville, who was removed earlier this week.
Ingram's recusal follows the arrest of her former deputy for an inappropriate relationship with defendant Christian Eppinger.
The deputy, Akeiba Stanley, was charged with multiple offenses including conspiracy and reckless conduct.
Judge Ingram cited potential public doubt in the trial's impartiality as her reason for recusal.
A new judge will be assigned to the already prolonged and complex trial.
