DALLAS A Dallas County judge was arrested early Saturday morning after he was accused of dragging his girlfriend by the hair, strangling her and holding her against the edge of a balcony.
According to a police report, officers were called at about 2:09 a.m. to a residence in the 3000 block of McKinney Ave. in Dallas.
At the scene, a woman who identified herself as the girlfriend of Carlos Raul Cortez told police a disturbance at the residence began with a fight over medication belonging to a juvenile living at the home. However, she said the fight evolved into physical violence.
A police officer reported seeing red marks on the woman's neck.

Looks like this judge is about to see that rule in play.
