CALIFORNIA IN BRIEF : ANAHEIM : Police Arrest Traffic Judge in Drug Sting

Capping a six-month investigation, Anaheim police said Friday that they caught an Orange County traffic judge in a sting operation and arrested him on suspicion of cocaine possession. Police said they received a tip earlier this year that Municipal Court Commissioner Robert K. Tuller Jr., 46, allegedly used cocaine on a “regular basis.” That information prompted an investigation by the Anaheim police, the district attorney’s office and state Bureau of Narcotics Enforcement. Tuller was invited by undercover agents to a “party” at the Anaheim Sheraton hotel Friday, police said. When Tuller allegedly bought cocaine from an undercover agent the arrest was made, according to a statement issued by Anaheim Police Chief Joseph T. Molloy. Tuller posted bail of $5,000 and was released on his own recognizance, police said.
