Allegheny County Judge Apologizes For 'QAnon Shaman' Picture

By: KDKA-TV News Staff

PITTSBURGH (KDKA) - An Allegheny County Court Common Pleas judge said she's guilty of using poor judgment.

Judge Kim Eaton posted a photo to social media of her and her husband, who was dressed as the rioter from the January 6 riots at the capitol in Washington D.C. known as the "QAnon Shaman," during the inauguration of President Joe Biden.

Eaton said to our news partners at the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette that she only intended for a close circle of friends to see the picture.

She said, "It sends the wrong message given the tragic events of January 6."
