If only there was some bloom left. hahahahaha
ummmm⦠those are sexual pleasure toysā¦
oopsā¦
I mean⦠so Iāve heardā¦
Come for the prurient interest, stay for the pie.
The judge was an idiot from the earliest moments. He did not even know that the case starting ānext Mondayā is a murder trial. This is astonishing.
While the defendant was clearly out of line, he seems to have made a decent case for ineffective assistance of counsel - his public defender basically admitted that he had nothing related to the case other than the indictment, which seems well below the standard of care for a murder case the week before trial.
Also, he could argue that any future proceedings before this judge would deprive him of his due process rights due to bias.
lol⦠thanks⦠my last Jeep was 12 years ago⦠got tired of bouncing around with no radio and no top⦠bought a GMC pickupā¦
waitinā, now, for it to be old enough to be in a songā¦
Looked up this judge, and found this gem from 2012 when he was running unopposed for reelection (looks like he is up again this year).
The ironic quote at the end says it all - āI look forward to the opportunity to continue serving all citizens honestly, equally and with a sense of decorum.ā
Kick-ass decorum!
Apparently 10 years is not a record for a ācontemptā sentence.
14 years is the record for time served so far and someone is currently serving 20 years.
I am totally speechless!
Itās the hair, it has super powers.
Even among all that crazy ā and it is A LOT of crazy ā the thing that stood out the most, at least to me, was this exchange:
MR. ALLEN: Iām supposed to get the autopsy report, the coroner report, pictures of the crime scene ā
THE COURT: Cor-coroner report?*
MR. ALLEN: ā Criminal backround records. I want ā
THE COURT: Is this a murder?
DEPUTY SHERIFF: In the county jail.
THE COURT: Okay.
So up until that point the judge didnāt realize the case involved a murder?
* I love the fact that the court reporter included the Scooby-Doo style double-take stutter ā ācor-coroner?ā
Sounds like the Trump campaign. Of course, just like Trump himself, the defendant should be in a mental hospital. For me its another plug for single payer health insurance. Healthcare in America sucks ābig donkey dicks.ā
Allen told the judge, who responded, āIām sure the women love it.ā
But Allen explained that he has sex with men, not women, and had a ludicrous back-and-forth with the judge about his sexual preferences ā āwhite boysā with ābig butts,ā Allen said ā before the judge shut down the talk by remarking that he looked ālike a queer.ā
Judge forgot #1 rule of presiding. Never ever engage in personal attacks and name calling just because defendant did it first. There are only two losers in such an exchange and you are one of them. Control the court. Find him in contempt if you must. Then order him removed from the court and move on even if he baits you again and again on the way out.
If the defendantās plan was to goad this judge into saying something that would disqualify him from hearing this case (or at least something which could be grounds for appeal), I think heās probably succeeded beyond his wildest dreams.
- I love the fact that the court reporter included the Scooby-Doo style double-take stutter ā ācor-coroner?ā
Itās the little details that make the whole thing yet more memorable.
Still I canāt believe the judge told him to ājack off right now.ā Allen is crazy but at least thereās some logic to what heās saying. The judge on the other handā¦Those were some of the weirdest statements Iāve ever heard in my life.
The judge canāt give more than six months for contempt without affording him a jury trial. The guy was already in custody for something elseāheās accused of killing a fellow prisoner. So what can the judge do? Not much, especially as the prisoner represents himself. What the judge could do is to deny the right of the prisoner to represent himself, and then kick him out of the courtroom if he doesnāt behave himself. Not much of a deterrent, I grant you.
Fucking lovely.
Anyone for a mistrial and some sanctions?
āThe whole transcript is well worth a readā¦ā
Pass.
Poor guy didnāt understand the right way to ask:
āLook, I canāt speak without swearing. And I only have my grade 10. And I havenāt had a cigarette since Iāve been arrested and Iām about ready to fuckinā snap. So Iād like to make a request, under the Peopleās Freedom ofā¦Choices and Voices Act, that I be able to smoke and swear in your court. Because if I canāt smoke and swear, Iām fuckedā¦and so are all these guys. I wonāt be able to express myself on a court level, and thatās bullshit.ā
Of course thatās just the preambleā¦
Unfortunately not included in this clip, is his reference to āOfficer Cock-knuckles and Officer Dick-lockā
Just one of these times cant this be in a state other than Georgia???
