Yet ANOTHER day in a Tennessee courtroom....

[shooter1201]

I swear. Jerry Springer NEEDS to visit our General Sessions court.

I'm in Juvenile Court this AM....it's mixed in with GS court....awaiting my case to come up, when a couple are asked to present reasons WHY the judge should continue an 'Order of Protection' that's up for renewal.

Right there, in the middle of a BUNCH of juveniles, their parents AND a few grandparents, the now ex-wife begins to go into EXTREMELY graphic detail regarding a recent sexual encounter she had with her ex-husband(it wasn't deemed assault by the judge). OK...just try to imagine a couple from the movie Deliverance and see if THAT puts you in the proper frame of mind.

The judge blushed...the stenographer blushed....one juvenile officer LEFT the courtroom. It was THAT bad.

Nope...I stuck around. I don't get out much anymore.

They employ juvi's as officers in TN?

Sounds like the ex-wife is a fairweather protection order fan.

Re: the BBQ....the rest of the USA doesn't know what it's missing, do they?

Re: the 'juvinile' officer. This is what we call the juvenile court officers.
