An alleged gunman said a QC was talking to him "like a piece of s***" before a murder trial was halted because he had a headache.
He was doing his job. Though it's hard to escape the conclusion that he was treating you exactly as you deserve.
The unemployed 26-year-old, who left school without any qualifications, has been accompanied throughout the trial by an intermediary, to assist him with following proceedings.
*sighs*
Shortly after the lunchtime break, High Court judge Mr Justice Stephen Morris called jurors back into court and thanked them for their "patience".
He said: "As you may have been aware, the evidence of Mr Murphy was paused because he's not feeling well and he is not feeling well enough to continue today.
"So I am going to ask you to go home for the day. But just to say this, the aim is to continue with his evidence tomorrow."
We don't force them into court to face the music, and now we let them off when they have a headache. Why the hell does the justice system bother with a dock at all?
Stopping everything because he has a headache....who does he think he is, a public sector employee?
ReplyDelete@Tom Mein, Isn't he? Possibly on the payroll for the rest of his life?
ReplyDeleteWhich, accoring to my preferences wouldn't extend beyond his weekend ...

"Which, accoring to my preferences wouldn't extend beyond his weekend ..."
He doesn't need to be one himself...he's almost certainly providing 'employment' for a whole bunch of 'em!
