FILE - In this March 28, 2014 file photo, former St. Clair County Judge Mike Cook walks from the federal courthouse in East St. Louis, Ill., after being sentenced to two years in federal prison on heroin and weapons charges. The disgraced Illinois judge was at the center of a courthouse drug scandal that included a fellow jurist's cocaine death.
