Judge Joe Brown Arrested

The television judge, and former Shelby County criminal court judge was arrested in Memphis.

We are told Brown showed up to Juvenile Court to represent someone in a child support case. Court workers told Brown they had no record of the case. Brown reportedly lost control and became verbally abusive. Juvenile Court Magistrate Harold Horne warned Brown to calm down, but he did not. Brown was given two days in jail for contempt of court, but that increased to three days when he once again started yelling as he was being removed from the courtroom.

1. Maybe one less judge show now??? That only leaves 38 during daytime

My sushi place has a tv and puts it on the local channel that is nothing but these horrible judge shows.

4. I like some of them

However, if I had to listen to them day in and day out, I would probably get sick of them really fast. Luckily I only get to watch them when I am off work which is normally a holiday of some sort.

6. The article says his show was canceled last year.

It goes on to say he's running for DA of Shelby county. Not being familiar with him or his previous show, I can't say if this is good or bad news.

2. Better headline would be: "sentenced to 3 days for contempt of court".

3. I once had a run-in with the Memphis constabulary

we were demonstrating outside a Subway restaurant in downtown Memphis that had no wheelchair access. As we were setting up, I found myself with custody of the bullhorn. That's when Officer Woodard stepped in. He fixed me with an iron, douchebadgey look, and bellowed "THERE WILL BE NO AMPLIFIED SOUND!" Apparently you need a permit for that or something.

And I'm white. I can imagine what Judge Joe's experience must have been like.

5. You should have put the megaphone against your butt, and farted.

I would've gladly paid your bail.
