A Detroit judge’s power trip last week — forcing a Black teen to wear jail clothes and handcuffs for falling asleep — has resulted in a ripple of consequences. The latest development resulted in serious action from his second employer.

Kenneth King, a judge in the 36th District Court, has been in the hot seat since his stunt last week. As seen in a now-deleted courtroom video, King scolded 15-year-old Eva Goodman for falling asleep in his courtroom while she visited as part of a field trip. After accusing her of “giving him attitude,” he ordered Goodman to be handcuffed, put in jail clothes and to plead her case among her peers as to why she shouldn’t be sent to juvenile detention as King threatened.

Since the situation went viral, Goodman’s mother previously spoke out expressing that she and her daughter have struggled to find housing. That along with Goodman’s job and other responsibilities contributed to the teen’s drowsiness, she told The Detroit Free Press.

Though King proudly defended his actions that day, Wayne State University spokesperson Bill Roose tells the Detroit outlet that King has been suspended from his two Fall 2024 courses of the judicial process and criminal procedure/investigation.

“In light of the 36th District Court’s temporary suspension of Judge Kenneth King, Wayne State University has reassigned two Fall 2024 courses to other instructors. As a contracted part-time faculty member, Judge King has never had an ongoing faculty appointment. Since 2022, he has taught a total of five sections of courses between Wayne State’s Law School and College of Liberal Arts and Sciences,” read the statement.

King’s actions in the courtroom that day also resulted in an internal probe that led him to be temporarily removed from his court docket, per a statement from Chief Judge William McConico. He’s been ordered to undergo training to address the “underlying issues” that led to the teen’s humiliation.
