Throughout the two-weeks of her Senate confirmation hearings, there have been many red flags regarding Judge Ketanji Jackson’s fitness to be a United States Supreme Court Justice. Readers may remember the bizarre exchange in which Jackson told committee members that she could not define what a “woman” is, because she “isn’t a biologist.”
The most recent example came on Friday, when she answered a line of written questions from Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) about natural rights by stating that she didn’t “hold a position on whether individuals possess natural rights.” But while most Republican senators are in agreement with Minority Leader Mitch McConnell that Jackson is unquestionably a “no” vote, it’s possible that some of the usual suspects in the GOP somehow remain on the fence about this truly out-of-the-mainstream nominee. And of course, there might be some on the other side of the aisle who aren’t in lockstep with the far-left looneys in the Democrat Party.
Now, there’s written proof that the previously reported revelations about Judge Jackson’s extremely lenient sentencing in cases involving sex offenders were just the tip of the iceberg. On Friday, courtroom transcripts and prosecutor memos from the cases on Jackson’s docket with defendants accused of distributing child-porn were released. (And I’ll warn you in advance: some of the content is not easy to read, as it involves crimes against children, even babies, and (Contains graphic descriptions of sexual acts.

In the eight child-porn cases that came before her court, former D.C. District Court Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson heard horrifying details of “sadomasochistic” torture of young kids — including “infants and toddlers” — yet challenged the disturbing evidence presented by prosecutors and disregarded their prison recommendations to give the lightest possible punishments in each case, according to transcripts of sentencing hearings obtained by the Post.
In some cases, she even apologized to some of the kiddie-porn perverts for having to follow the statutes, which she called “substantially flawed.”

In July 2020, Jackson gave the bare minimum sentence to a defendant convicted of distributing images and videos of infants being sexually abused, and who had boasted of molesting his 13-year-old cousin, even though she knew the defendant refused “to take full responsibility” for his crimes, a transcript reveals. In 2018, Christopher Michael Downs was busted trading child porn in a private online chat room, “Pedos Only,” including images of adult males raping “a prepubescent female child,” according to court records. The 33 photos included a picture of a naked child, as young as two years old. Downs, then 30, told the group, “I once fooled around with my 13-year-old cousin.” He also uploaded a 10-second video of “a prepubescent female lying in a bathtub and with an adult male inserting his penis into her mouth.”
The list goes on:
Jackson herself admitted that the felon was at “risk of reoffending,” the transcript further reveals. But she declined to enhance his prison time based on the amount of porn he distributed, arguing such enhancements were “outdated” and “substantially flawed.” She acknowledged the average sentence nationally “for similarly situated defendants” was 81 months, but she gave him the statutory mandatory-minimum sentence of 60 months, which was short of the nearly six years prosecutors asked for. Jackson also gave Jackson credit for the time he served, starting in October 2018. This means that Jackson only gave Downs 38 months of his sentence, which is a little more than three years in prison. Downs’ release is set for December.

Judge Ketanji brown Jackson, a Supreme Court lifetime member, is not the person we need to defend our values and protect our Founding documents. And we must make sure that our representatives in Washington know our will at this crucial moment in our nation’s history.
