From [HERE] It's appalling that a justice on Kentucky's Supreme Court would resort to inflaming the basest racial fears and prejudice. But that is what Will T. Scott is doing — for the second election in a row.

The Judicial Campaign Conduct Committee has said a Scott commercial is false and misleading and appears to be "designed to appeal to racial prejudice." The ad repeatedly juxtaposes images of black convicted criminals with those of pregnant white women, even though the women have no connection to the cases mentioned in the ad.

Scott's ad, accusing his challenger, Appeals Court Judge Janet Stumbo, of siding with "criminals 59 percent of the time" when she was on the Supreme Court, "misrepresents the role of a judge or justice, which is to base decisions on the law and not take sides," the committee said. Also, the statistic cited by Scott excludes many cases in which Stumbo ruled. The committee also found that a newspaper ad by Scott about a fetal homicide ruling was false and misleading.
