He was a journalist first. I don’t think there’s much hyperbole, actually. Especially in Lucky You .
He appears, in the booking photo, to be wearing a hospital gown, somewhat in disarray. So he might have been wearing underwear, depending on the procedure he was in for.
You people! He is clearly wearing underwear!
Why he’s wearing them on his head is a totally different question.
I know we pride ourselves on not jumping to conclusions here, but I think drugs might have been involved.
If I lived in that hellhole, I’d probably be on drugs non-stop too
You’d think the home of the Circus World Museum would be a fun place… I’ll bet there are still relatives of Charles and John Ringling walking around in oversized shoes (their first circus performance was in Baraboo).
I’ve heard working in a circus can be extremely brutal.
And, more to the story of the Stupid MF caught driving in court:
Apparently, despite playing the victim card on TV interviews and such, blaming the courts and whatever, the MF never had a valid license!
Also, he lied saying he was in housebound because of an injury which is one reason he claimed he couldn’t have cleared it up earlier. The judge asked him what he was doing on a particular day in December. He said he was home because of the injury.
Not true! The judge called out his lie, because on that day, he had gone and renewed his Michigan state ID (which you can’t have if you have a valid ID).
Apparently, the privilege to drive is separate from having a license. So, because the Stupid MF didn’t pay his child support, his right to drive was suspended, even though he didn’t have a license
Meanwhile he and his attorney were off giving TV interviews blaming this on clerical errors on the terrible, faceless bureaucracy. The judge wasn’t happy about that,
The judge was not amused.
A review of the bodycam by the officer showed that he knew at the time he didn’t have a valid license.
The judge was not happy with this guy for not owning up to his mistakes and blaming everyone else.
And, it winds up that he has a bench warrant for his arrest for a similar case which he never took care of, so he was remanded again to have that taken care of.
However, it looks like he was just lying to try to get that sympathy.
Something the judge isn’t buying.
Isn’t Florida the same place someone robbed a drive-thru with an alligator?
Hey, where else you gonna get an alligator if you want to rob a drive-through?
Yes it was.
It was a Wendy’s, maybe he tossed the gator in there so they could use it to make more chili.
Ah, a judge uses that age-old standby: “I have important friends!” It’s almost as bad as “Do you know who I am?”
Clearly this guy does not have the wisdom to be a judge.
It’s one thing to be corrupt and use all of your connections to pull strings to get things done, it’s another to yell about it in public while you’re being recorded.
Thank you for this link, because before the clarification, I was wondering if the alligator was working at the drive thru window at the time of the robbery.
Because Florida.
“I go by ‘Al’, the last name is pronounced ‘Gah-TOR’.”
“The alligator would be unlikely to ‘attack’ people and more likely to be in a highly traumatized and frightened defensive mode,” he said. “It could, and quite likely would, snap and lunge at anyone approaching it closely and could project its head and jaws 12 to 18 inches in most any direction.”
poor gator, happily moseying along a road, then some human gatornaps you and flings you into a fast food restaurant.
“Wally”, tyvm
Wally Gator is the greatest operator in the swamp, I don’t think he’d be working at Wendy’s.
