Allegations that Clark Co. Judge had sex with 14 yr old

A Complaint has been filed with the Judicial Disciplinary Commission alleging Family Court Judge Nicholas Del Vecchio had improper sexual conduct with many attorneys in his courtroom and one 14 year old girl.

The Las Vegas CBS affiliate reports:

The most disturbing allegations, inside this 38-count formal statement of charges, involve the daughter of a woman described as Del Vecchio's girlfriend -- who was also an employee at his private law firm.

The complaint says Del Vecchio made the girl, who was 14 at the time, perform oral sex on him. It also alleges the judge took nude pictures of the girl when she was between 14 and 16-years-old.

The girl went on to law school and, in 2002, was hired as the judge's executive assistant.

While in that job, the complaint says Del Vecchio made it clear to the woman that she would have to have sex with him in order to keep her job. It also says those encounters happened during work hours and were recorded on audio tape.

Apparently, when the unnamed molestee turned law clerk cut off sexual conduct, the judge became retaliatory.

Wow. Um, is this a new potential low for the Vegas bench?
