"A United Nations judge has been convicted of forcing a young woman to work as a slave.
Prosecutors said Lydia Mugambe "took advantage of her status" over her victim by preventing her from holding down steady employment while forcing her to work as her maid and provide childcare for free.
The 49-year-old, who is also a High Court judge in Uganda, was found guilty of conspiring to facilitate the commission of a breach of UK immigration law, facilitating travel with a view to exploitation, forcing someone to work, and conspiracy to intimidate a witness."
" In footage released by Thames Valley Police, Mugambe appeared shocked when an officer said he was arresting her under the Modern Slavery Act.
She then had a conversation with the officer, in which she said: "I am a judge in my country, I even have immunity. I am not a criminal."
It's crap like this that blows my mind that the APL is obsessed with slavery in antebellum America, and ancient Israel, but doesn't invest a fraction of that vehemence on slavery in 2025 in the UK.
Given the UK's soft stance on the extensive rings of Pakistani men raping children, it's a small step in the right direction that they charged this one slave owner.
Given that the UN regularly puts some of the most evil and repressive regimes on the planet in charge of human rights committed, it's really no surprise that this woman was a UN judge.

But, I'm told people are generally good.
Dan will waste dozens of comments rehashing his same old bullshit, and bitching that I don't answer the same questions over and over, but won't even bother to comment on this news. Just like he hasn't bothered to comment on the rape rings in the UK, or the Pakistani culture that has normalized child rape and inbreeding to an extent not seen in recent history.
