My husband of 17 years is a judge. Recently multiple people have come out publicly with their stories about my husband because all the complaints they have filed with the Council which deals with this have been ignored throughout the years - no investigation opened. My husband has always kept me in the dark about his work - finances, so let’s just say I have my reasons to believe the allegations. The most horrific one I’ve heard is my husband ruled that a 12-year-old consented to having sex with an adult (legal age of consent at the time was 15 in our country), so there was no conviction. The accused in this trial was wealthy. I didn’t know about this until now. Frankly I’m completely disgusted with him.

      I would need therapy to process how awful the person I thought I knew is! 17 years then this? They have to be utterly reeling!

            No, you worded it in a way that was easy to interpret that you thought OP had issues that required therapy instead of being upset at the husband. Not because it was implied that it was an insult that someone might require therapy.
