Aug. 16, 2002, p. A15 Judge James Clement dies at 74 ~ By Michael Puente, Post-Tribune staff writer |
for 27 years before retiring in January 2001, died Wednesday evening at a local hospital, surrounded by most of his immediate family. Mr. Clement, who suffered from congestive heart failure, was 74. During his career, Mr. Clement built a reputation for being a hard worker who balanced the law while being a devout Christian. "Jim Clement was the model of hard working. He was in very early on Mondays, and left late on Fridays. He really set a standard. He had a profound effect on me and other people around here," said Lake Superior Court Judge Richard Maroc, who became a judge six years after Mr. Clement. Mr. Clement presided over 1,300 jury trials, including 15 death penalty cases. Gary native Robert Rucker, now an associate justice with the Indiana Supreme Court, often went before Mr. Clement. "I had the honor of appearing before him many times," Rucker said. "He was highly respected. ...I am going to miss his wise counsel." James Clement Jr. said what made his father a good judge also made him a good parent. "He did not make quick judgments or decisions. It was always well thought out," Clement Jr. said. "He always told me to be on time, be prepared and be a gentleman." Some cases, such as deciding whether to sentence a defendant to death, often weighed heavily on the mind of Mr. Clement, his son said. Public defender Noah Holcomb, who practiced before Mr. Clement for about 20 years, believes Mr. Clement's deep religious faith assisted him on the bench, especially when he had to sentence a defendant to death, which he did at least three times. It pained him to make some very tough decisions on the lefe of people. ...But as a judge, he knew to dispense a harsh sentence if the case called for it," Holcomb said. "His religious faith helped him to impose those sentences." Clement Jr. wished his father could have had more time to enjoy retirement. After leaving the bench in January 2001, Mr. Clement worked part-time for his son's law practice. A 1945 graduate of Horace Mann High School in Gary, Mr. Clement went on to graduate from the University of Miami in 1952 and the Valparaiso University Law School in 1956. |
