This Judge placed her in contempt and did all of the searches and scans etc to de-humanize her. This Judge should be fired and forced to go through the same things he put this women through.
I was involved in a civil case with a judge who apparently didn’t think the rules apply. Our lawyer announced at the end that he felt the judge was not following the standards and that he was going to submit the transcript of the trial for judicial review. It took a while, but the judges verdict was vacated, the judge was removed from the bench, and four of the witnesses were charged with perjury. They all lost their jobs. One of them, a state police trooper, was also charged with conspiracy and ended up in prison. When the judge has done something wrong, an appeal may not be the best strategy.
Not good enough, I'd want the removed judge to also be disbarred, just to send a message to the entire legal community that we're not a Constitution free zone within any courtroom and any attempts to do so are penalized appropriately. Otherwise, we have general lawlessness within the courts, save if you're wealthy enough to push matters before the courts, leaving open only the path to armed anarchy. Having witnessed such in foreign lands in the military, I most certainly do not desire that for my homeland!
@@SeanPat1001 in my experience, judges authorized by law to sentence people to prison or rehab are required to pass the bar. Lest we get whimsical decisions not backed by case law by superior courts.
That would require additional litigation and hopefully, not under a judge that's a friend of the suspended judge. But, obviously, they're not allowed to abuse someone that way, as evidenced by his suspension, regardless of if she gets cancer from all of the radiological exposure she was needlessly exposed to. The courts would find the matter finished.
So unfortunately the woman's Civil case was dismissed because the court determined he had already paid (they considered his law license suspension and removal from the bench as payment)

@@BlackJesus8463 ... They don't think they are doing the right thing they just don't care because they want that conviction record to tout as a campaign talking point saying "look what I did".
I had a judge tell me word for word "I know you didn't do anything wrong but this is wisconsin, get used to it, you're guilty." then banged the gavel and ordered me to pay a fine. Public servants now think they own the public. From police to fireman to prosecutors and judges. If you give someone power over others, they will abuse it. Most public servants act like slave owners talking to slaves. If we the public don't obey our masters then we are subject to violence.
The JUDGE should serve twice the time the victim served, with the same exams as applicable. Same for a prosecutor when they KNOW they are wrongly prosecuting someone.

When I was 19 years old I was called from work by my probation officer to take a random drug test. I washed boats and my clothes were a ragged wifebeater shirt, board shorts and flip flops. The probation officer’s office was actually inside a court room in Foley,Alabama . As soon as I walked into the courtroom the judge threatened to holding me in contempt for three days. And every lawyer told me to fuck off. The only person that showed remorse was the probation officer who knew the judge was crooked. I had to go buy a shirt and shoes just to walk in the court room for 12 feet to walk into a office to piss
this is the world we live in, and we are at the mercy of the court. Too bad the probation office does not have a back door. Makes one wonder what the judge was wearing under his robe, if anything.
Cruelty . The world is cruel and callous My heart is with you, and only others who suffer with similar circumstances know that those who carry compassion for you are forever etched into your memory and remind you that kindness is virtuous and that holy and unholy ate empty names.
My wife was in a criminal justice program in college many years ago. As part of her course work she was assigned to be a court watcher. In one court the judge refused to have court observers present and tossed her out. This is an example of an abuse of judicial power.
The use of governmental force and power to humiliate a human being is a human rights violation. This judge is qualified for a trial at the International Criminal Court at The Hague for crimes against humanity. Full stop.
He was happy until he found out that one year of unpaid time off was grossly insufficient and barely a slap on the wrist. Stop looking for fights online.
This is most likely not the only time this judge has done something like this. I’m confident that if a good investigator looks into this judges past it will be discovered that this judge has a history of this type of abuse of power.

I have been in several courtrooms, mostly as a spectator and a couple of times in front of the judge. EVERY SINGLE judge acted as if they controlled not only the courtroom and EVERY person in the courtroom.
Saw a guy reading a newspaper in the backrow before the judge entered or court was convened. A couple of the courtroom thugs...oops I mean officers of the court, approached him and told him to put the paper down, he couldn't read a paper in court. I've seen and heard the same thing with someone chewing gum. We're scum and they are gods. Hopefully that will change soon but I'm not holding my breath. There seems to be a separation happening now. Exactly how it works or what it will lead to I have no idea.
1) The judge (who absolutely knows better) sentences an innocent bystander to a 10 day jail term. 2) The judge was found to be clearly (ethically) wrong. Why isn't the judge found in contempt of court and serve jail time? Ya' know.. 'equal treatment under the law'... or does that not apply to people in positions of responsibility and only to members of the general public.
"Why isn't the judge found in contempt of court" I think what the judge did is much more serious than contempt of court. He falsely imprisoned someone. It should be treated as harshly as kidnapping.
@@saltycreole2673 Then it's not "qualified," it's blanket immunity. ("Qualified immunity" doesn't mean that if you're in a certain job, you "qualify" for immunity from the law. It means "immunity in certain circumstances, immunity with an asterisk".)
I know from personal experience as a victim what disgusting conduct judges pull in -their- our courtrooms. Hense the reason they don't want independent recording inside -their- our courtrooms.

A judge had no problem convicting me of 2 misdemeanors because I refused the request by cops to move a motor vehicle that did not belong to me, on public property, and while I was intoxicated. He was even stupid enough to demand I write a letter to the cops that were trying to get me to commit these felonies explaining how I could have " done things better ". The letter ended with " why is everyone trying to get me to operate a motor vehicle that I have no legal right to work, on public property, while intoxicated? " No-one ever replied to my court appointed required letter.
I had to attend driving school in order to to keep a ticket off my record, I didn't know the class teacher was also a cop, So when he asked me a question about a police interaction I responded with a loud "because cops have a double standard" Jaws dropped all around me as apparently I was the only one who didn't know I was speaking to a cop, Priceless!!!!
Electronics class teacher talking about police oper. I made the statement about the cop, Too lazy too work, Too dumb too steal. Lets give them a gun and automobile. Whole classroom burst out laughing except teach he was a volunteer wanna be ride along
You got lucky, for if this was not one of those officers on human growth hormones and steroids with a tree trunk sized chip on his shoulder, he would have instantly "feared for his life" and used that newly sanctioned and authorized knee neck safety restraint on you, in front of the entire class and said "I wish" someone else would say something. You had one of the good ones we rarely hear about.
In most courts I’ve been to, outside of small “town” courts there have been a DA or ADA as prosecutor as well as a public defender or other defense counsel; I find the fact that no other attorney called the actions into question on the sport or that the bailiff didn’t have some pause to following an unlawful order/ruling. As a trained LEO with a masters degree who has been duly sworn to uphold, protect, and defend the US Constitution I find the amount of officers using the “I just followed orders” responses disgraceful; good officers need to stand against these rights violations as all it takes for evil to triumph is good men to do nothing.
Yeah. Most places they all in it together. Cops, procedures, judges, defense attorneys, they all get job security when rights are violated. You work I Mayberry?
The "following orders" defense is so weak because police swear an oath of honor which includes holding "myself and others accountable for our actions". If a cop knows an order is unlawful, it is their duty NOT to obey it.
I must say, the best way ro fix this mess would be if good cops hold bad ones accountable, good attorneys hold bad ones accountable, good judges to bad, but the opposite is the norm
That's because there is no such thing as a good cop. Not one leo that is supposed to protect rights did a single thing except violate this womans rights. Most people when asked say they support police. Sounds reasonable right? Police are supposed to protect us and our homes and ensure our rights aren't violated so we can work and take care of ourselves and family without worry. I support that. Except police no longer do that. They do what they did to this woman, they enforce political aims of politicians and judges. They steal more from the public through civil asset forfeiture then civilian criminals. No group kills more Americans a year then US law enforcement. (US law enforcement as a whole is a group) Just in shootings alone US L.E. kill roughly 1000 people in the US each year(hundreds that are completely unarmed). Compared to roughly 50 US L.E. killed feloniously by citizens each year. Literally waging war against the American public under the guise of the war on drugs. Drugs are the invisible enemy that anybody could be in possession of. It allows police to target anyone if they "suspect them of being under the influence" then violate their rights. To steal money for "suspicion it might be used to purchase drugs". But this is the system that evolves when we the public are forced through coercion to fund police and government by paying taxes. When you are essentially guaranteed a pay check no matter what there is no expectation of accountability. This case of the judge is a unicorn. Real accountability will only have a chance if our country starts treating government like civilians and pays them for the quality of their work willingly, not through coercion regardless.
@@jupitercyclops6521: I work in upstate NY. I’ve actually gone against our DA on a case before where he simply wanted the offender to be sentenced to prison for 7-15 years; the offender was just a kid (18 of 19) that was or would have been on the mental retardation spectrum who was kicked out by his parents. The offender was on probation for a grand larceny 2 or 3 charge that he was convicted of when he stole a car and totaled it; after his parents kicked him out he was arrested for stealing bread and baloney from WalMart, petit larceny, simply because he was hungry. In NY a new criminal charge initiates a violation of probation hearing wherein the offender can be re-sentenced, in this case with a recommendation of 7-15 years. Although I’m some rare cases a judge will take a sentencing flyer they’ll usually go with the prosecutors recommendation. As the offenders probation officer I fought for his staying on probation given the new charge, to include going to the court where he appeared on new charges and making a recommendation contrary to the DA’s; the judges agreed with my recommendation and plan and sentenced him to 6 months for the petit larceny and to continue probation with the period being extended by the time of the violation proceeding and incarceration. I’ve always just tried to do my job and to not play politics; this hasn’t always served me well. As I lived outside of the county I worked in I tended to get conflict cases including the son of the head of our union, whom I had to violate twice, which was a big help in the small county I worked for. I also went head-to-head with our NYS Department of Corrections and Community Supervision when I violated a Corrections Sargent maybe 8 times eventually getting him re-sentenced to jail after he was convicted of numerous DWIs and violations of court orders; after that DOCCS actually took him back and allowed him to finish his career out. Despite taking this Sargent back after numerous convictions and serving jail time when I applied for a job as a parol Officer, after getting a 100 on the civil service exam I was black balled as not a team player; I guess if condoning his behavior is a team behavior it’s not a team I want to be on but reinforcing those bad behaviors is keeping a lot of good officers down while propping the bad ones up and keeping them in positions, like the judge, to adversely effect people’s lives. The system can be tough once you get in it which why I prefer to revert people, especially children, from it; the judges actions in this case go above the pale and frankly would seem to warrant termination not simply suspension. I harken back to MLK Jr’s hoping for a day when people get judged by the content of their character and not the color of their skin and think just how much better we would be today if everyone just treated everyone better instead of pre-judging them because of their race or even beyond that to their previous convictions, known friends, and just recognized that we’re all humans and should treat each other with humanity and respect; far too many officers today act like this judge and get obstinately defiant if their word is called into question and forget that you’re there to protect the rights of the community just as much as protecting it from crime, and that while the latter can cause harm, the former can cause the destruction of our society and complete loss of trust in our system. I started out 20 odd years ago in NYC with the NYPD as a police officer; I’m glad for my time there but am glad I returned upstate. While upstate I’ve helped jump dead batteries, change tires, help people locked out of their cars and enforce the laws of the state of New York including seizing deadly weapons, dangerous instruments, pounds of drugs, and breaking up the occasion meth lab/operation but the most effectiveness I felt was after becoming a probation officer as you mix the law enforcement side from being a police officer with the mental health side, drug counseling, and case management parts of the job and while you do t have the same interactions with as wide of a percentage of the community you’re able to do much more with the slimmer percent of the community you do engage with. Sorry for the long diatribe I’m just sitting in my living room getting over a cold with time on my hands and disgust in my head over a story like this and what seems to be just a massive divide over the criminal justice system I was both raised and trains into where you were expected to stand up for right even if no one else was.
Difficult when so many are totally brainwashed by MSM propaganda. Americans continue to only vote in career politicians and/or members of the "elite" class. Most are oblivious to the fact that the "elite" are not like everyone else. They go to special schools and are taught completely different ways of thinking, than the average person. But they have the bank roll to keep the positions of power or at least install their puppets. It would take a monumental critical shift in the way the populace perceives the upper echelons of society, to reigning the government. But the tools that could initiate such a shift are securely in the hands of those who wield them for their own devices.

I'm shocked this actually happened in Ohio. This state is famous for it's whack legal system. Ohio state motto should be: Welcome to Ohio, come on vacation, stay with incarceration, leave on probation, or with a citation.
Pa and Ohio are riddled with the softer, milder forms of white supremacy. And there are also quite a few full blown goose-step and armband types as well. I used to go to flea markets in the 1980s in Pa and Ohio and almost every time at least one vendor would tell me I "looked right" and then would ask me if I wanted to see their "world war two and civil war memorobilia" which they kept hidden from view. It was always exclusively junk with Nazi symbols or confederate replica buttons and belt buckles and bayonets, etc. Nothing but hate symbol trinkets.
When crossing on the 70, I fuel up before Ohio so I don't even need to look at an off ramp in that fucking state. Truckers have bitched about that state for several decades, and I bet they're happy to see this.
Yeah like having the idea you crossed state lines should not be a crime . that the Constitution and bill of rights somehow changed just because you drove into another state, WTF.
Man, is that an understatement! Ohio is on par with Florida for it's kangaroo courts and idiot attorneys. They never really transitioned from being corn tooth farmer folk to a well oiled metro society. Though they LOVE to tout the little things that they think makes them one. Like "the" Ohio State school. It's pathetic.
This shit just makes me wanna cry bc of the actions they get away with.I live in a small town and it’s no joke about how they all work together and clearly break the law.It’s wayyyyyy harder than you think to get them into trouble or just held to the same standards.
This happened to me, I had went as a spectator for a friend. Just stated they had no ability to view police cam video in court. I was on of 3 spectators and I was singled out for my expression made by me in silence. She ordered me to take podium, where she narrated me and also threatened me with 9 months.

So judge says, "When you come into my courtroom and I think you're high, you're in trouble." I wonder what might have happened if she would have responded with "Judge, if I come into your courtroom and you think I'm high and you order a test, you are in trouble."
That's interesting how a person can be required to do something by a judge when the judge had nothing but his own suspicion against them, and they are not even under arrest so they can't even get a lawyer if they can not afford one, and they call that justice?
Where I’m from Doctors refuse internal searches even when warrants are provided. They outright say no and use their Physicians College as protection from lawful orders and lawsuits. Ten days in jail for the innocent is evil, when this judge only gets 365 at home away from work.

I had a total nightmare judge, he had an attitude right as he entered the courtroom. I was there over a criminal trespass charge (long story short, the house is legally mine and my dads an idiot, he thought he could get me thrown out of my own house so he could move in), I had evidence proving my innocence my lawyer claiming it was an open and shut case. Judge refused to see the evidence, went off on me (screamed that it was his courtroom and that his word was law and continuously cursing), and ruled in favor of my dad. My lawyer filed a complaint to the BAR on my behalf, and fought to overturn the charges against me. Charges were dismissed the second time around (in front of a new judge), and the previous judge was no longer allowed to practice law or perform as a judge. The nightmare judge had been serving for almost 35 years, who knows what kind of blatantly illegal and unconstitutional shit he was pulling during that time.
He doesn’t have the temperament to be a judge and it sounds like he no longer has the knowledge. He doesn’t remember laws. The lawsuit settlement will be huge. The citizens should be outraged.

It seems like there should be civil suits against the municipality and against the judge personally, possibly against some of the underlings as well. How about using a hospital to conduct a search? Forcing someone, who is not charged with anything, to undergo examination in a hospital? Shouldn't any info gleaned by the hospital be covered by HIPAA? While I understand the need for judges to be generally immune to suits for performing their duties as a judge, it seems to me that the Ohio Supreme Court's finding of "abuse of judicial power" should open the judge to liability. Judges should be immune only when acting within their actual authority, not when acting outside it.
From all of those I talk to in their interactions with the court system (civil issues - not criminal) the typical breakdown is 90% of judges do a solid job. But there's a handful out there like this judge who should not be judges. I've heard of instances of bad judicial conduct but just when you think you've heard of everything, this case comes along. Thanks Steve as always for highlighting these cases!!
Steve said W/O pay so not truely a vacation but nonetheless crazy that a disbarment wasn't issued. But one must be happy with whatever accountability happens because accountability is rarely dispensed. If he returns to the job after the year has gone I'd hope that every attorney (prosecutor or defense) uses this fact in EVERY case in front of him and hopes for continual dismissals/retrials untill the city/coounty/state that has hired him fires him for simply not doing his job on account of never finishing a trial...
Always approach things like this as if the accusation were true. Even if she was high as eagle balls, did that judge have any reason to target her? Granted judges in court rooms are different from roadside stops, but even judges have to follow due process, and you'd think this one would know that after serving for 19 years.
Due process? No he must abide by the laws of the land.... all of them. In this case the 4A since she was a there as a citizen and not a defendant. They do have some wiggle room if you are trial but not much. Now time to name him personally in a civil suit.
Frankly I'm surprised anything at all happened, given the Stump v. Sparkman standard for judges, and QI for everyone else. I get that attorney grievances aren't civil suits, but you'd think they'd act similarly in letting judges do pretty much whatever.
I definitely hope the young lady was able to get some type of compensation for the egregious actions that were taken against her. Too often government officials are not held accountable for their actions to a point that would make it a deterrent to others. I believe in many cases we should "throw the book at them" to deter any further misconduct by their colleagues.
With the god complex some judges have it can get plain silly. About 10 years ago, I used to pick up the trash at the Federal Court house in my state's capitol , and you had to enter an underground parking area, back up to a loading dock and roll some carts to the back of the truck and tip them in. In front of the dock are numbered parking spaces, so we get there early to avoid being blocked. One morning a car comes in and one of the Federal Judges had a Fukushima style melt down about us in his parking space and demanding that we move right then and there. Not in the mood for any crap, I lost my cool went off on his arrogant ass, and he wound up sitting for the 5 minutes it took us to finish.

Years ago, we had a judge removed by the California Commission on Judicial Performance. He was telling people convicted of a misdemeanor and even lower class felonies that he would grant them probation IF they joined HIS church, to put it mildly, he was a religious fanatic. I had already contacted them about him holding jurors into the late night and then not making provisions for their safety as they went to the parking garage two blocks away, he had done this twice to my mother and like every other downtown in the nation she was in danger while she walked those two blocks, that was a second offense they nailed him with and ended his ever being a judge in this state again.
There should be a civil case since the supreme court has already found him guilty. We need harsher penalties for these tyrants. There should have been at least a 10 day sentence. Eye for eye!
I think the victim should sue the guy in his official capacity and in his personal capacity under a 1983 lawsuit. In fact, I think he should be put in jail for his actions.
I once had a judge reprimanded (off record) simply by making a few phone calls. No formal process whatsoever. The angle I used is that I'm disabled and unable to read or write. Very little effort and she was forced to rehear my civil case and provide a fair outcome.
This case would do real nice as a Title 42, 1983 federal civil suit. She could end up retiring early at the expense of the indemnity insurance company. I wish more folks would do this when their rights are violated. This systemic problem would go away real fast.
@Rich From Virginia Beach thank you. From what I was researching, they will use the statute of limitations from whatever state the incident occurred in and apply it to the federal suit. I was falsely convicted and later won my appeal and then was released, but I haven't filed a lawsuit yet. When I was released after 3 years of a 16-year sentence I didn't have the money to file a civil suit in a timely manner. But I ran for Sheriff against the same Sheriff who helped to frame me and destroy my evidence, I was able to do that with 150 bucks to my name. Now that I was re-established some semblance of my old life, I am looking to hold our system accountable.
@@votehuss4833 That is an awesome story! I am assuming you beat the former Sheriff and now you are the new Sheriff? That must be a great feeling to beat the shyster that framed you. Feel free to share more of that story! I love it.
@Rich From Virginia Beach thank you. It's all still a little surrealistic to me, as it completely flies in the face of everything that you hope, wish, and assume our government stands for. But hey, this isn't the first time I've been wrong. LOL Unfortunately, no. I did not win. In 2014, there were just two of us running, as everyone else was afraid to run against him due to his status as an overwhelming Powerhouse politician. I was the only one foolish enough, or principled enough, to run against him. Though he committed multiple felonies and campaign violations, the local Board of election, and other law enforcement officials refused to address or even acknowledge what had happened. The closest I came the holding him accountable was my filing an election protest with the local and State Board of Elections. This put a temporary kibosh on him being able to assume office, however the state-level board of election legal counsel was a major supporter of the sheriff and just a Blue Waller in general. That gentleman somehow repeatedly lost all of the documents required for the state to hold a hearing on the matter. What's the time frame to contest the election had passed, only the typical courses to redress the issues were available. Basically the Pathways that led through the legal system itself, the same system that I just screwed me over and was now in cover down mode. The grounds on which I had file my election protest, were not that I had received more votes than him. But that as a candidate for office, that he had violated multiple campaign laws which should have rendered him to be stripped of his status as a qualified candidate for office. If I had been allowed to have a hearing at the State Board of election level, by law it would have been a court of recordation/ officially sworn testimony on a court record. My plan of attack was to allow him and his goon squad to testify that I was lying, and once their testimony was on the record, to use my hidden footage of the incident to perjure him. Thus, winning the hearing and or establishing class C felony charges against him. Either way rendering him disqualified as a candidate for the 2014 election year. Regardless of how many more votes he got than I did, this would remove his name from the ballot and the runner-up would have become Sheriff. As I was the only other candidate on the ballot that year, I would have been the automatic winner. Same as if you competed in the Olympics Comet coming in second to somebody who later popped positive for steroids. Once all is laid bare, the first place contestant would be disqualified due to violations, and the second contestant would be given the gold.
Great video as always Steve... It's all well and good the judge was suspended and ordered to pay for proceedings... But, what of the citizen? Was she compensated for what must have been a humiliating ordeal to say the least? Or does she now have to go through the long and expensive process of suing this judge? Just curious how things work down there. Keep up the great content..
Abuse of authority to this degree should result in the judge being fired (permanently) not suspended for a year, disbarred, and criminally prosecuted. Anything less sends the message that you can get away with a wrist slap.
It can be a curse to know your rights, steve. I think I might find myself in deep doo-doo if I was brought to a hospital for an illegal body search...depending on the circumstances, blood could get spilt.
Beyond the judges misbehaviour, what ever happened to medical ethics? So a cop brings someone in, how's that a reason for doing tests and reporting the results to the government? Any participating physician should be severely punished.
Tell me you’re AA without saying you’re AA. What world are you talking about? The cop who fired at the SUV in Waukesha yesterday has been placed on investigative leave
imagine all the compliant people involved in this violation... people will do anything someone in "power" tells them too without thinking twice. Truly terrifying.
Ya Know.. Hear me out... remember the "kids for cash" scandal in PA. I bet you dollars to donuts that this judge owns, or profits or something from that PIVOT program. He was just looking to get someone else in there. And most of these programs get state money to "turn life around" for a wayward person.
There's times when I truly feel ashamed to admit to the fact, that I am born and raised in the state of Ohio, but I guess there is some kind of crazy going on in the court rooms of every state, in this country. The saddest part of this situation is, being a citizen of this state, I will now be just one of the people, that will have his tax dollars, given to this poor woman, for the wrongs that were brought upon her, which she more than is entitled to, and I hope it is big.
Some states are better than others in my experience New Hampshire is a wonderful state we are up past the Franconia notch it's another world I lived in Texas I enjoyed my time there I lived in Florida in st. Pete I think the states that are democratic, not sure if I'm allowed to say that in black and white but clearly are communistic like Nazism I'm not being mean just my experience we border New York just got back from Hawaii I was on the island of Oahu Honolulu, I literally saw a cop every 90 seconds; I guess I'd be doing something else if I didn't go 12 years in the court system to get back teenagers I still have the 4 by 8 sheet of plywood it's turned around I can't look at it it's starting to rot but it says but I did not rape my baby or babies 12 years for lawyers somewhere between 10 and $20,000 for lawyers in 20 years no driver's license and a half a million-dollar bill no joke I went into the DOR once they knocked $100,000 off the bill that I've never paid on That was the state of Massachusetts, definitely one of the most ungodly despotic drug infested States. I'm so thankful for New Hampshire and my little home in the woods: hope you don't get upset with me but the only reason I'm not completely insane is God well his son Jesus Christ. This is Irene's husband Jim Jellison 57 years old now, did get pulled over last summer was a $250 fine officer Applebee no joke, he told me I should write a book: he was a State Trooper and a gentleman many folks are upset with the police today I have always had a respect for the state troopers especially my experiences if you don't act stupid with the police it will turn out a lot better for you that may not always be the case but it's been mine 20 years no driver's license and I've done my share of mouthing off when I was younger and filled with much bitterness and hatred anyway I've talked a lot Met you, experience peace in this life, you're the Prince of Peace
Is the judge required to complete any CE hours during his suspension? Most all attorney suspension orders have this requirement and compliance plays a big role in whether they are allowed to return to practice at the end of the term or whether their license is revoked.
I would love to hear Steve’s position on Contempt of Court. I remember being young and having the thought why can I speak my mind everywhere but a court house. Courts are the only place where the constitution gets left at the door step. There is no freedom of press, freedom of speech, 2nd amendment 5th amendment 10 amendment and I’m sure many more all because one phrase “I hold you in contempt”. I also have never understood probation department when it comes to pretrial probation. From my perspective once you have a lawyer all questioning by government officials should stop. But if we put you on pretrial we can question you weekly without a lawyer and hope you screw up. It is probably the most unjust part of our system.
Because the court proceedings are supposedly to be held in an orderly procedure. You might be expressing your first amendment but you can't yell and scream out if control. You may not cuss and yell at the attorneys or the judge and disrupt court proceedings. 🙄 just because you have certain rights does not mean you can exercise it without restraint.
There is freedom of thr press, but the court can restrict that to protect the integrity of proceedings by not having it turned I to a circus---think OJ Simpson trial. The public can sit in if seating is available, but th4 court may control the level of press coverage. The court can also issue a gag order to keep people from issuing inflammatory remarks. Isn't that a restriction of 1st amendment? Of course it is. But the court can order such restrictions if it is narrow, directed to specific persons, and forfeited amount of time and for a specific purpose. So to make such broad claims of not having your "rights" without u derstandint all th4 levels of consideration is without merit.
@@ms.annthrope415 thank you for your lawyer/judge justify . But my question is not the court process but rather why is it the only place in America where these rights are null and void. You say there’s not but if I’m in the audience and call the judge A jerk I’m in contempt. If I do it in the parking lot it’s free speech. There is nothing in the constitution after each declaration in the bill of rights that says except courtrooms.
@@ms.annthrope415 your entire first response is my point. Why not? The judge and or lawyer are no better than anybody else in society. They are public servants. The term Karen is appropriate here a Karen can say whatever they want to a 16 year old in Starbucks without consequence. If the same Karen yelled at judge sensitive it’s 10 days lock up. Cussing talking over people yelling are all disruptive but not illegal.
