Broward Court Judge Facing DUI Charges

Broward County Circuit Judge Cynthia Imperato was arrested for driving under the influence in Boca Raton last year, several hours after she left Maggiano’s restaurant after attending a meet-and-greet sponsored by the justice associations of Broward and Palm Beach counties.

“She had red, bloodshot, glassy eyes,” prosecutor Ari Goldberg told jurors. An off-duty officer stopped her after watching her white Mercedes Benz “swerve violently” all over the road. The officer remembered she had difficulty pulling her wallet out of her purse.

And when he asked for identification, she handed him her judicial badge, not her driver’s license, prosecutor Ari Goldberg said.

In addition to DUI, Imperato is charged with reckless driving.
