Human Rights Lawyer Gets Six Months in Jail for Airborne Abuse

A self-described “international criminal lawyer for the Palestinian people” who spewed F bombs and racially charged insults during a rant on an Air India flight is heading to jail. Simone Burns, a.k.a., Simone O’Broin, pleaded guilty in March to assault and being drunk on an aircraft. On Thursday, a London court sentenced her to six months behind bars. Reportedly, the source of the November 2018 dispute is that flight attendants declined to serve her a fourth bottle of wine on the Mumbai to London morning flight.  Cops arrested Burns when the plane landed at Heathrow airport. read more

Broward County Lawyer Sucker-Punched by Defendant in Court [Video]

Broward County, Fla., bond court is one of the more entertaining YouTube channels. The video content for each day the court is in session gives viewers a sense of how the court system operates. Even given the judges’ varied and sometimes engaging personalities, the court almost always finds probable cause for the charges in the short hearings handled via video.

Appropriately so, especially given the lackluster reputation of the Broward County Sheriff’s Office. read more

Cory ‘Costanza’ Booker Made a Fool of Himself at Kavanaugh Hearing

U.S. Senator Cory Booker, a New Jersey Democrat who wants to run for president, channeled Seinfeld‘s George Constanza with his embarrassing and desperate showboating at the Brett Kavanaugh confirmation hearings, as these mashups from the Washington Free Beacon suggest.

As Costanza famously once said, “it’s not a lie if you believe it.”

From the New York Post in detailing Booker’s history of making stuff up:

“Those who have followed Booker’s political career have long claimed that it is merely a long string of theatrics, fables and malleable positions. As an optics-obsessed lightweight mayor of Newark, they contend, he spent large swaths of his time collecting lucrative speaking fees to lecture others about his imaginary accomplishments in his corruption-riddled city. ‘The only way you can see the mayor,’ explained one Newark councilman, ‘is if you turn on Meet the Press.” read more
