Dynamic Duo

I would first like to say that I apologize for the lapse in time on my blogs. I have been attempting to straighten some things. While I am the route to successfully completing them, I still a long way to go. I’m sure I will get there. It’s all about self determination.

Either way a few weeks ago I had a misdemeanor docket. In court we had two brothers who have both had problems with the criminal justice system. I remember these brothers because I once dealt with them before during a traffic docket. During that time the charges against them were for a curfew violation and drunk in public. They were both found guilty. During the court proceedings, however, their mother claimed they were being “targeted” by the police and that apparently they were exempt from being held responsible for their criminal behavior due to their grandfather’s apparent affiliation with the NYPD. The judge did not buy this line of thinking and they were held responsible for their actions.

On this particular day, however, they were both in court on obstruction of justice charges. One of the other brothers was also charged with attempting to damage a police car. The charges stemmed from an incident where the two brothers were involved in a police chase. A suspect apparently had attempted to rob a person in another neighborhood. When he found that the individual did not have anything to take, he decided that he needed to fire shots at the victim. Police were contacted that and the suspect took off.

Here enters our pair of brothers. Police observed one of the brothers talking to the gunman. When the police attempted to stop the individual the brother who was conversing with the suspect would not move his vehicle. When the brother decided not to move the car, he was detained for obstruction. He was placed in the back of a police cruiser where he felt the need to try and kick out one of the windows of the squad car. He was threatened with mace and then decided to behave.

Then enters our other brother. This brother gets arrested because he decides to try and interfere with his brother getting detained by the police. He then gets put in handcuffs as well.
Needless to say our dynamic duo were found guilty. Apparently they had the same gang afflation as the original suspect in the case. This might explain why they were acting like such morons.

Only other noteworthy thing about this case was that one of the annoying defense attorneys from one of my early posts was back. She is just aggravating. Her voice is high pitched, she refuses to state clearly what she is talking about, and she wears all kinds of Asian themed clothes when she is a skinny blonde chick.

I liked how she stated that her client was “a working member of the community” because he worked at McDonald’s and was “hoping” to get his GED. Wow, what a pillar of the community.

I’m hoping sometime in the future I can hand her ass to her in court. She just annoys me.

The skinny blond chick sounds kind of hot. I like skinny blond chicks! ;-)

But seriously, this set of brothers sounds like a pair of winners. I don't know what it is, but some people just love talking themselves into handcuffs, don't they?
