The chief judge of the Camden Municipal Court was reprimanded Wednesday for a series of what judicial ethics authorities said were “aggressive” emails to a city prosecutor—emails that the judge later characterized as “private” and “confidential” despite them concerning an active case.

Chief Judge Christine Jones-Tucker was found by the state Supreme Court to have violated several judicial canons in the emails, sent to then-Camden municipal prosecutor Kristina M. Bryant beginning in late 2016 and in events that followed.
