judge United States

Matthew Thornhill is a judge in Missouri who recently made headlines for appearing in court wearing an Elvis Presley wig and playing the singer's music from his phone during proceedings. His actions, which he claimed were intended to lighten the atmosphere, led to a decision for him to resign after accepting a six-month unpaid leave as part of an agreement with a state board to avoid disciplinary action. Thornhill has served as a district judge in St. Charles County since 2024 and is noted for his long tenure and previous role as an assistant prosecutor in the area.
