An attorney who served as municipal judge resigned after being arrested on charges of stealing about $80,000 from a client, police said.
Police Chief Ashley Wellborn: Attorney Bob Seale of Livingston was charged with theft last week after an audit revealed money missing from the account of a person for whom he was serving as legal guardian.
Seale confirmed in a phone interview that he had resigned his position as municipal judge in Livingston and nearby York, both located in Sumter County near the Mississippi line, but he declined comment on the charges.

Look at the volume of articles on this blog, and the continued nonstop proliferation of horror stories. Yet, we are supposed to trust and believe the guardianship system is for protection?
And pigs fly.
Seale resigned -- I don't get that. He should have been fired in shame and disgrace. His resume will show "resigned" -- that's wrong.
More and more bad judges are getting caught - that's the good news!
He went from a judge to an attorney? That's rare.
Any case this man was involved in should be thoroughly reviewed.
