OLYMPIA, Wash. — Washington State Supreme Justice Richard Sanders acknowledged Tuesday that he shouted “Tyrant! You are a tyrant!” during a speech by the nation’s attorney general last week.
U.S. Attorney General Michael Mukasey collapsed about 15 minutes later as he addressed the Federalist Society in Washington, D.C. The incident made headlines that initially overshadowed a controversy about who had heckled him as he defended the Bush administration’s anti-terrorism policies.
Sanders said Tuesday: “It kind of irked me that this is making fun of the Geneva Conventions. … To make a joke about it, when we’re a signator to this convention which prohibits torture.”
