Palm Beach Post WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. – Longtime Congressman Alcee Hastings has died. He was 84. Hastings, a Florida Democrat, was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in January 2019. He served in the U.S. House since 1995. Before serving in Congress, Hastings served as a federal judge. But in 1981, two years after he was appointed to the bench by President Jimmy Carter, Hastings was charged with bribery in a federal sting operation. Hastings was acquitted, but in 1988 was impeached by the U.S. House and removed from the bench a year later by the U.S. Senate. Hastings, a Democrat, then ran for Congress and consistently won re-election by wide margins, most recently last November.
