TX Judge who beat disabled daughter loses office

I don't often post non DWI related posts, but after watching part of the video of a judge abusing his child, I decided to post this. Be warned if you watch the video it is graphic.

A Texas judge who severely beat his disabled daughter with a belt lost being re-elected. Not sure why the judge wasn't prosecuted for felony abuse or removed from office by the judicial committee, but at least the voters threw him out. People can't have faith in the justice system when a judge like that remains on the bench. I hope he didn't deal with any criminal cases or family law/ child custody cases. He clearly was an unfit parent and a child abuser based upon the video alone. Who knows what else he did.
