BOSTON, MA – According to reports, a Massachusetts judge who has been suspended from the bench since 2019 will get her job back.

In 2019, Judge Shelley Joseph was federally accused of helping a man escape from a Newton court and from custody of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents.

In September, Joseph admitted to relevant facts in the case and the federal charges were then dropped. The Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court previously suspended Joseph based “solely on the fact that she had been indicted for alleged misconduct in the performance of her judicial duties.”

On Wednesday, November 16th, an order posted by the Supreme Judicial Court indicated that the decision has been reversed. The order stated, in part:

“The charges in the indictment against the judge have now been dismissed … The order of suspension, therefore, is terminated, effective immediately.”
