A now-former Brunswick Judicial Circuit judge, Robert Guy, was arrested on a DUI charge after a crash in the parking lot of Wacko’s Gentlemen’s Club in Jacksonville.

CAMDEN COUNTY, Ga. — A Brunswick Judicial Circuit judge has resigned from his position following an alleged DUI crash outside of a strip club in Jacksonville.

Judge Robert “Bert” Guy Jr., 48, worked out of the Camden County Courthouse as part of the circuit, which covers Glynn, Camden, Appling, Jeff Davis, and Wayne counties. The Office of Governor Brian Kemp confirmed that it had “received and accepted Judge Guy’s resignation” on Thursday, Oct. 16.

“It has been an honor and privilege to serve the 5 County Brunswick Judicial Circuit,” wrote Guy. “I will be forever grateful to my Judicial friends in this Circuit and across the state. I appreciate my remarkable staff and courthouse personnel and the attorneys and their zealous advocacy for their clients.”

In an arrest report, the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office said it responded to Wacko’s, located on Emerson Street, in response to a crash in the parking lot around 2 a.m.

A valet driver told police he saw Guy, driving a black Mercedes, back into another person’s parked truck and damage their front bumper. He said that Guy tried to drive away after talking to the other driver, but was too drunk and needed to be guided back into a parking space. The crash victim told police Guy attempted to give him $500 to smooth things over.

The reporting officer said they talked to Guy, whose car keys were being held by employees, and could “immediately smell” the strong odor of alcohol. He was also observed swaying, with bloodshot eyes and slurred speech, and failed the field sobriety tests.

After arriving at the jail, Guy was also arrested for allegedly refusing to perform a breathalyzer test and was released on bond later that day.

Duval County court records show the former judge has since pleaded not guilty to all three misdemeanor charges.

Prior to his arrest and resignation, Guy also served as president of the Council of Superior Court Judges of Georgia.
