Colo. Judge Admits to Using Racial Slur and Saying 'All Lives Matter' Before Resigning

A Colorado judge has resigned from her post after she said a racial slur multiple times in front of colleagues, and declared that "all lives matter" while discussing Black Lives Matter protests from the courtroom bench.

Natalie Chase, a District Court Judge for the 18th Judicial District, was publicly censured by the Colorado Supreme Court, which issued an order on Friday that revealed her resignation had been accepted.

The order outlined a series of "violations" Chase had committed in her role, and said she admitted to multiple incidents involving racial slurs, derogatory comments and an unprofessional mixing of work and personal life.

The first incident cited took place in late January or early February 2020, when Chase drove herself, her former law clerk and a Black Family Court Facilitator to a program in Pueblo, Colorado, according to the order.
