The Nevada Commission on Judicial Discipline has filed charges against Pahrump Justice of the Peace Michele Fiore , alleging she violated the state’s code of judicial conduct.

In an April 24 decision, the panel charged Fiore with three violations related to her being convicted by a jury of conspiracy and wire fraud charges.

Fiore, who was given a full and unconditional pardon by President Donald Trump last year, was accused of raising tens of thousands of dollars for a statue to honor a Metropolitan Police Department officer who was killed but instead used the funds on personal expenses including plastic surgery, rent and her daughter’s wedding.

According to the seven-page decision, Fiore’s conviction and failure to return donations has adversely affected “in reasonable minds a perception that Judge Fiore’s honesty, impartiality, temperament or fitness to serve as a judge.”

Earlier last month, the Nevada Supreme Court upheld a suspension handed down by the commission.
