“EMERSON MOORE JR was arrested for drunken driving and bailed to appear in court the next day. When he showed up at the court in Muhlenberg, Pennsylvania, he saw the officer who had arrested him and a row blew up between them. During the argument, the officer – Trooper Roberto Soto – smelled alcohol on 46-year-old Moore’s breath. Given that he had driven himself to court, this was not a good thing. He was breath-tested, found to be over the limit again, had his bail revoked and was sent to jail. ‘You don’t show up drunk for a preliminary hearing, especially when it’s a drunk-driving case,’ said the judge, District Justice Dean Patton. ‘I asked him what he was thinking and he said, “You told me I could drink at home.”

“RICHARD BROWN WAS in enough trouble when he appeared before Judge Patrick Carroll on charges of robbing a shop in West Haven, Connecticut. He was already looking at 10½ years for that offence when the judge reprimanded him for his surly attitude, and ordered him to say ‘Yes, sir’ when addressing the court. At that, the simpleton blew his top. Standing up, he dropped his prison-issue trousers, turned around and mooned the bench, yelling, ‘Sir? Kiss my ass, sir!’ Ooops. Better make that 11½ years.”
