Stripper Turned Judge Found Dead In Nevada


Diana Hampton
 
Diana Hampton, a former stripper turned judge, was found dead in her Nevada home. Hampton, a former district attorney, was the first female judge elected in the city of Henderson, Nevada. The mother of two was a stripper for a year in her twenties and used the funds to go to law school, obtaining a degree. Hampton heard many domestic violence cases in her court, during her tenure as judge.

An investigation is being conducted into the mother of two's death. She was 50-years-old, which is young to die. It is great that Hampton was able to turn her life around, as being a stripper is an emotionally and mentally degrading job that harms women's psyches. Here’s hoping there was no foul play in this case and it was a naturally occurring, medically related passing, as there are conspiracy theories online that state otherwise, which would be sad if true.

Side Bar: People who wish to go to university should be given government grants to do so, as it is educating the populace. The government spends all this money on fruitless wars, when intelligent people like Hampton want to go to school but can't afford it.

The Government Needs To Cut The Defense Budget And Divert Funds Into Helping The Poor, Students In Need Of Scholarships And Small Businesses


Barack Obama

The U.S. government sequester threatening programs that benefit the poor, could have been easily resolved, had the defense budget been adequately cut. Other world nations have been cutting their defense budgets during the ongoing financial crisis, but the cuts suggests in Washington are paltry at best.

The real war in the world right now is an economic one and Washington is losing. Other emerging economies such as China, India and Brazil, have made great strides, while Washington continues to focus on military spending. Economic clout has surpassed military might in the world.

Money wasted by Washington on bloated defense budgets and the FBI illegally spying on hoards of citizens while its officials fly, work and live in luxury, could go to helping the poor in America, creating new scholarships to help the next generation of American business people compete in the world and to aid struggling small and mid-sized businesses. Taxpayer money is going to the wrong endeavors and it is weakening the country.
