crazyy anna nicole smith judge busted for marijuana
 

This would normally be suprisingg but somehow after watching him on the bench it doesnt..


-------------------

A judge who had a secondary role in the recent Anna Nicole Smith proceedings was charged with smoking marijuana in a city park, police said Monday.

Lawrence Korda was smoking marijuana while sitting under a tree Sunday, police said. Three officers who were training there saw Korda and field-tested the cigarette, said Capt. Tony Rode, a police spokesman.

The judge was not arrested. He was given a misdemeanor citation to appear in court.

"Judge Korda was not given special treatment because of his status as a circuit court judge," Rode said. "He was provided with a notice to appear. That's exactly what 99 percent of other offenders would have been given for this type of offense."

A message left by The Associated Press at the judge's chambers after hours Monday was not immediately returned.

The fight over control of the former Playboy Playmate and reality TV star's body began in Korda's courtroom. It ended up being heard by Circuit Judge Larry Seidlin, who carved his own slice of celebrity from the televised hearings with his relentless one-liners and blubbering announcement of his decision.

Seidlin allowed a court-appointed advocate for Smith's infant daughter decide where Smith should be buried, and the lawyer decided it would be in the Bahamas.

Korda later heard brief arguments in a related case, seeking to determine the biological father of the baby. He ruled that a Bahamian court had jurisdiction over the child's custody.

lol, thats great... like u said though, not really surprising

If I was trying to keep our justice system going, I would have to take
a smoke break as well. LOL

Hmm thats not the judge I saw

shit your right . damn misleading news stories..

In the yahoo news article they have the main judge's picture next to the article.. , haha thats pretty misleading..

good catch

heh this guy is great.

he was the judge that sat on the custody hearing who ruled that florida did not have jurisdiction to make such a ruling

funny he got busted in a park right near my house

I use to smoke in that park all the time

Smokey the misleading Bear. :winkwink:

Think of all the people he sentenced for similar infractions.

Funny post but I am so sick and tired of these hypocritical asswipes. If you want to smoke a blunt every now and then all the power to you but find a different line of work. SCUMBAG.:321GFY

I wonder if this gives ground for appeals of any of his decisions?:stoned

"Three officers who were training there saw Korda and field-tested the cigarette, said Capt. Tony Rode, a police spokesman."
wonder how they "field" tested it:1orglaugh
Pass the joint your Honour :Graucho

i agree.. i cant see how a judge could rationalize ruining peoples lives by convicting them of marijuana offenses when they are committing the same illegal act..

I was thinking the same thing. Any good lawyer will get his convictions thrown out.

would be cool to be his dealer though :)

hopefully the system doesn't ruin his career over this. after all, i think more people in this country smoke weed, then don't

while i would like to agree with you here. this guy is part of the "system" that ruined hundreds of other people's lives over the same thing..

So while i hate so see anyones live/job ruined over simple pot, i dont see any reason he shouldnt be treated the same way as the rest of us.

Hahaha more people in this country smoke weed then dont? What the fuck world are you living in? :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

yeah, this is the OTHER judge. not the 'crazy' one.

I don't think that anyone's life has ever been 'ruined' as a result of getting caught smoking a joint in public. You have to be selling large quantities before you're looking at any real jail time.

According to the Office of National Drug Control 57.4% of young adults surveyed in 2004 had smoked marijuana at some point in their lifetime.

i know of dozens just personally..

If you work at a state owned job and you get caught with a marijuana conviction of any time your fired, and they take away your retirement..

LOTS of people's lives have been ruined. as i'm sure this guys will ..

Sure he might get a light sentance , but his days as a judge are over. any ideas he had of moving up in the ladder just halted.. no more supreme court etc..

You are wrong. All state laws are different and all situations are different.

just another bit of oddity for this tale

Yeah you're right, he probably won't make the Supreme Court now. :winkwink: It's sad that anyone would lose their job over smoking a little pot on their own personal time, but I guess it probably does happen. Never to anyone I know personally though.

Oh so the fact that some "age group" has "tried" marijuana that means MORE people smoke than not lol. Nice reasoning. :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

a judge busted for marijuana...never saw this coming,well I guess I`ve seen them all now..

I read this thread title as 'anna nicole smith just busted for marijuana'

I was like, "how the fuck can that happen" :1orglaugh

marijuana is not a crime!!!

what in the fuck was that guy thinking?

You aint kidding and it aint over yet :winkwink:
