OnlyFans creator and former New York City traffic court judge Gregory Locke took to social media over the weekend to comment publicly for the first time on his removal from the bench.
Locke was fired from his job as an administrative court judge following a complaint from city council member Vickie Paladino. He’d been in the position since April 2022.
Palindino’s complaint took issue with a tweet of Locke’s that told her to “choke on a dick.” The post was in response to Paladino’s own tweet calling Drag Queen Story Hour “an absolutely shameful display.”
Locke had previously tweeted his dissent to other politicians about a myriad of issues.
