For most people (hopefully), it's hard to imagine taking a government job — making $138,000 a year and knowing full well that taxpayers are funding your salary from their hard earned dollars — and then NEVER showing up for work.
But, according to a news report, that's the exactly what a Detroit Judge did in 2017.

Fox 2 News Detroit Investigative Reporter Rob Wolchek uploaded his report on what he uncovered about the judge on Nov 28, 2017.
(Find that video below)
Wolchek's investigation showed that Detroit Democrat, 36th District Court Judge Kahlilia Yvette Davis, had called in sick or took vacation time, and never worked a day after she was appointed to her position in November of 2017.
Though it was the busiest court in Michigan she was allowed to collect her salary even though she had never heard a single case.
Calling her appropriately the "No-Show Judge," the report shows her going to the gym — and to the courthouse — but ONLY TO PICK UP HER PAYCHECK.
To learn more you'll find several links under the video — but thankfully a comment on YouTube indicates she's been relieved of her duties!
