Random Dumbasses Part 8

More random dumb asses from court:

-Gang banger who decided that he needed to fight the police after he left a club. His friend was being detained for whatever reason and he jumped on the arresting officer. He had already been involved with an altercation with rival gang members that evening. It then took three officers to pull him off. He later was detained in another city's jail for a similar incident. He came into court and denied fighting the officers. Judge disagreed, convicted him, and gave him thirty days for resisting arrest.

-Another gang banger who is still 14. He was in court on charges he broke his mom's front window after she refused to take him somewhere. He was on house arrest at the time. Mother filed charges on him (good for her) and he was convicted. Thing was the kid was found with a cell phone, drugs, and money when he was picked up for this incident (he ran away from home). He was then ordered to move into a group home. He was being disrespectful in court and leering when the hearing was going on. The judge stated (and I agree) that he is looking at prison as an adult. Just really sad.

-Some random juvenile who decided to get drunk and wreck her car. Her parents, her lawyer, and the defendant all came into court pleading what a good kid she was. The judge still suspended her license. If you're kid is so good, what was she doing out at 1AM and driving while intoxicated? I seriously had to listen to how this girl was the president of her high school, did all this charity crap, blah blah blah blah. Judge finally called it when she stated if this girl did all this, then she should have REALLY known her behavior was wrong.

-Another defendant who stated that his "carrying" of beer did not mean he was in "possession" of it. REALLY? That seems to be pretty cut and dry to me.

-Another juvenile who was on his way to a deferred finding for a burglary charge. The only problem? He keeps smoking weed. Even after he's ordered to substance abuse treatment he still keeps smoking. He smoked his way right into a criminal conviction.

-Another juvenile defendant with issues. He was convicted of robbery in my state, sent upstate, got out, and moved to Georgia. There he violated his parole and picked up more robbery charges. In Georgia he jumped bail (why was this fool given bail) and fled to Florida. He went to prison where for another robbery. He was picked up and extradited back to my state. Judge gave him a year here as well to serve for violating his parole. He was walking out, running his mouth about his behavior being related to the actions of his probation officer, and the deputy escorting him told him to "shut the hell up." This great resume and he's only 20. I'm sensing career criminal!

More to come later :)!
