Mr Justice Marcus Smith’s handwritten message to the woman in a ‘vulnerable’ junior role left her feeling ‘distressed, angry, let down and devalued’ A High Court judge who sent a love letter to a young member of staff has been issued with a reprimand for ‘serious misconduct’. Mr Justice Marcus Smith’s handwritten message to the woman in a ‘vulnerable’ junior role left her feeling ‘distressed, angry, let down and devalued’, an investigation was told.
In May, the JCIO said it received a complaint alleging Mr Justice Marcus Smith had passed the young woman the letter ‘referring to a number of personal matters and his feelings for her’. It added: ‘The complaint was accompanied by a summary document in which the young woman described a series of prior events that she considered to be relevant, for example the judge confiding in her about his relationship with his judicial leadership and asking her to go for walks with him.
