Today’s edition of Dirtbags In The News features a man [arrested for spitting on and threatening](https://www.kentucky.com/news/local/crime/article316981324.html) a hospital worker wearing a hijab outside a University of Kentucky hospital facility. He was caught after being photographed wearing a UK “Welcome Home” t-shirt.

This wasn’t his only confrontation, based on a separate incident this month at Lexington’s Good Samaritan Hospital.

He also had a lock of her hair, a nude painting of her, a sculpture of her, a tattoo of her initials. He filed complaints against her (she’s a therapist).

It’s not clear how he financially qualifies for a public defender whose job is to defend clients who lack the money for a lawyer.

So he blew through the $10 million dollars and is now broke.

MC Hammer made so much more and also went broke. People get famous and rich so fast and get the feeling that the money is infinite, until they run out.

Evil. But also stupid.

> A 17-year-old North Carolina girl who recorded a livestream of a shooting that killed three people at a San Diego mosque and disseminated the attackers’ white-supremacist writings has been charged with murder by aiding and abetting, a district attorney said Monday.

> According to the indictment, Santiago agreed prior to the attack that she would record the livestream, distribute it and release a document written by the attackers. She carried out those tasks, it said, and she purchased a patch bearing a white-supremacist symbol and sent it to one of the gunmen to wear during the attack.

Of course, MC Hammer didn’t have to pay to defend himself against charges that he dismembered someone. I imagine those fees add up pretty quickly.

It’s good that he didn’t rush to judgement.

\*the lawyer’s bio states that he’s “litigated thousands of criminal cases”, was chairman of the first statutory Gambling Board in KwaZulu-Natal, a Fulbright scholar, has 3 law degrees _and_ is an ordained minister. Truly a Renaissance man.

I think that in some jurisdictions, public defenders are available to all, and the rich usually just choose to pay lawyers because they believe (rightly or wrongly) that they’ll get better representation that way.
