put yourself in her seat.i know what contempt of court is, but have trouble seeing how his actions fall under that category. even when he did it, it wasn't like he was jumping with joy. it was minor, subtle, and shouldn't be noteworthy.
while it may have been in bad taste, she still could have accepted the plea deal, then added on hours to his community service or added a fine. my problem is with her completely rejecting the plea deal, and sentencing him to 30 days in jail for something she was about to let him do community service to resolve. that's where i think she overreacted and abused her power.
you just saved this dude from REAL jail time and he does something as stupid as slapping his lawyer in the ***. Extra probation and community service doesn't cure that, he needed to be taught a lesson.
Same thing needs to happen to Chris Brown. He has these chances ands still can't stay out of the news headlines.
lets get one thing straight. she didn't save him from anything. his attorney and the DA did that. she just got done telling him that his attorney did a great job, and he congratulated his attorney. when he pat his attorney on the butt, he did it like football players do as a sign of appreciation, thanks, congratulations etc etc. she misinterpreted that as him horseplaying in a courtroom and flew off the handle. it was exacerbated by people in the courtroom laughing which she was clearly upset about. she even said "the whole courtroom was laughing".
