CHICAGO (WBBM NEWSRADIO) -- A Chicago attorney is accused of swearing and using a racial slur during a virtual court hearing.
Attorney Donna Makowski was on Zoom when it happened. According to court documents, she used the f-word when talking about the Sheriff’s Office and the N-word.
The judge called the comments "unprofessional, disrespectful, and contemptuous."
"I do not believe that her statements were contemptuous of the court. I do believe, however, they were certainly unprofessional. They were disrespectful," said CBS 2 Legal Analyst Irv Miller.
"Attorneys shouldn't be saying those things - whether they are on zoom or not."
She has not commented.
