According to ReviewJournal.com, Las Vegas Municipal Judge Heidi Almase pulled a doctored photo of her and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson which she used on social media to aid in her campaign.

The report notes Almase has never met The Rock, but she doctored a photo which depicted both of them together.

Tom Letizia, the campaign manager for Almase’s opponent, Chief Deputy District Attorney Cara Campbell, called the post “a fraud.”

“It’s deceitful, dishonest, and disingenuous,” Letizia said. “Laws are made for a reason and if our own judges aren’t following the laws, how can the public trust them or their integrity on the bench?”

By late Wednesday morning, the post had been removed. Her campaign manager, Jennifer Barrier, said she is close family friends with Johnson, but she did not have authorization to post the image and took it down after being contacted by a reporter.

“It was never an endorsement,” Barrier said. “There’s no quotation marks. It’s not an endorsement.”
