Judge Timothy Walmsley<\/strong> spoke about diversity\u2019s transformative role in the criminal justice system \u2013 and what it means to be a neighbor in 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\nWalmsley serves as a Superior Court Judge in Chatham County, Georgia, where, in the Savannah community, he \u201cis regarded as a thoughtful and caring leader and friend,\u201d said Stetson Law Professor Elizabeth Berenguer<\/strong>, who introduced him to the virtual audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stetson Law Professor Elizabeth Berenguer<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nBeyond his community, he is best known for presiding over the murder trial of the men who killed Ahmaud Arbery in 2020. In keeping with this year\u2019s Diversity Week theme, \u201cThis is U.S.,\u201d Walmsley spoke about diversity within the legal profession and how social justice informs his reasoning in cases like that of Arbery\u2019s killers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In preparing to speak Wednesday, he said he reviewed numbers featured in a 2020 American Bar Association model diversity study that examined legal entities\u2019 diversity initiatives, hiring practices, attrition, promotions, and more. While the statistics showed notable growth in the diversity within the Bar\u2019s makeup over time, the diversity tends to bottleneck as one looks further up the chain of command at legal practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWhy that is occurring is a difficult question to answer,\u201d Walmsley said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cConversations that need to continue\u201d<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nThough he did not speak directly on his verdict in the Arbery case, he reflected on what it was like to preside over a high-profile case involving racial justice during a global pandemic. The case was outside his district, but he was appointed to it when all the judges in Glenn County, where the crime took place, had to recuse. One of the defendants, Gregory McMichael, was chief investigator with the District Attorney\u2019s Office there, and was well known among the judges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“It was a high-profile case at a time when there had been a number of other high-profile cases that had been in the American conscience.”<\/p>Judge Timothy Walmsley<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\nThe case moved slowly, he said, because of Covid-19-related restrictions as well as the fact that he took it on while maintaining a full schedule in his own courtroom. He called for the courtroom to be open to the media. There were days when protesters demonstrated outside the courthouse and days when the likes of Reverend Jesse Jackson and Reverend Al Sharpton sat in on the proceedings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ultimately, he said he thinks it contributed to a bigger conversation about American justice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe learned a lot out of the Arbery case,\u201d Walmsley said. \u201cIt was a high-profile case at a time when there had been a number of other high-profile cases that had been in the American conscience: George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, even the Rittenhouse case. All of those cases\u2026along with the Arbery case, I think have opened up very positive discussions about the justice system, about how it operates, who\u2019s operating it, and I think those are conversations that need to continue.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What it means to be a neighbor<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nAt the sentencing hearing for the defendants, Walmsley made headlines for remarking that the case \u201cshould force us to consider expanding our definition of what a neighbor may be and how we treat them.\u201d His comments were based on comments of another Southern judge, and that he knew that during the hearing, his time to speak would be limited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI spent a great deal of time thinking through the sentence, and more importantly\u2026because of the nature of the case itself, I really wanted to make sure that the public and the litigants understood my sentence. Judges don\u2019t really have many opportunities to really speak their mind on certain subjects,\u201d he said. \u201cI stand by those comments.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On the broader subject of fairness in the criminal justice system, Walmsley said there is a lot of work that needs to be done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cA topic that we need to address policing and profiling. There\u2019s been a great deal of discussion on policing in particular, and I think that discussion needs to continue,\u201d he said. \u201cWe need to understand that there are real issues in policing, but there are also individuals out there that are working hard within the police departments to do things right.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cYou may feel like you\u2019re not getting traction, but you are.\u201d<\/p>Judge Timothy Walmsley<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\nAs a judge, he added, his ability to issue sentences he views as fair is limited by factors such as the Drug War, mandatory minimums, and the jury selection process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe are challenged with a lot of problems when it comes to misdemeanors and petty crimes and how the accumulation of misdemeanor arrests and enforcement ultimately leads into my court, which is the Superior Court, where we deal with felonies,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Imparting optimism about the future<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nDuring the question-and answer session that followed, the judge was asked about what can appear to be slow progress when it comes to diversity and inclusion within the legal system. Walmsley assured his audience that the answer is never to give up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cNothing happens in the legal profession quickly,\u201d he said. \u201cYou may feel like you\u2019re not getting traction, but you are.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n
