Chief Magistrate Joanne Walsh reportedly is back in the good graces of the Browne Administration, which, allegedly, has accepted her retirement from the post and agreed to a benefits package – that is,
full gratuity and pension.
Walsh recently was found guilty of 15 disciplinary charges by a tribunal appointed by the Judicial and Legal Services Commission; and her removal from the bench reportedly was recommended to Governor-General Sir Rodney Williams.
Before the disciplinary trial commenced, sources say that Walsh was advised to tender her retirement letter and, in doing so, receive her full benefits. But at the time, the sources say, she rejected the offer, declaring that she wished to clear her name.

However, after being informed that she had been found guilty of all the charges, the sources claim that Walsh quickly submitted her retirement letter to the Government, thus safeguarding her benefits package.
Walsh served as chief magistrate for a little less than 20 years, reports say, and there is speculation that Attorney-General Sir Steadroy Benjamin will find other employment for her.
Meanwhile, some of Walsh’s colleagues and others in law enforcement are not happy about what they call her “sweet deal.” — (Source: REAL News)
