Our legislative and judicial branches have cowered down for too long to cops and now its coming back to bite them in the ass. Hahahahaha! Maybe the cops and judges will arrest each other. Maybe the state police will have to come in and arrest the county police. Either way its very entertaining. elmo, brilliant! that’s what I’m hoping for-a showdown between these two powers.

If he honestly believes that is what is job was and his Boss fully supports him and agrees, as it appears Sheriff Joe does. We got the wrong guy sitting in Jail. On the other hand ignorance of the law isn't much of an excuse especially after a Judge tells you that you did something wrong. So you think he'd get a clue by now. Or maybe he's smarter than he looks and thinks Sheriff Joe has gone way over the line. By staying in jail Joe's getting a lot more bad press than he would have with a simple apology. But that would be one heck of an acting job since he does apear to be truely pretty clueless. lol, same here.

Do we now have blow up pieces of paper that can be identified at a glance? The little smart ass should have been pantced, hauled out front and caned! Ta hell with putting him in jail with his friends as caretakers. Beat his ass in public, remove him from any courtroom duty EVER!!! Fire him if you can, place a mark upon him that nobody would ever cast a trusting eye upon him in the future. (ok maybe too far). His big problem is that he does not understand that he is nothing but fodder for Joe. Since when did rifling through the files of attorneys become a “court room security issue”?

It's hard to see how he could function as a police officer in those circumstances, at least for any case that ends up before that judge.
