A judge ordered a blood-alcohol test for a defense lawyer who was slurring his words, then declared a mistrial after declaring him too tipsy to argue a kidnapping case.
"I don't think you can tell a straight story because you are intoxicated," the judge told Joseph Caramango as she declared a mistrial for his client.
Friends don't let friends LWI. Of course real friends won't let you L at all.
In an exchange recorded by courtroom video, Caramango arrived about 90 minutes late for trial and was slurring his words.
The judge asked if anything was wrong, and Caramango said he suffered a head injury in a rear-end car crash while driving to court.
Leavitt said she was suspicious because details of Caramango's account varied.
Caramango also identified a woman who accompanied him to court as his ex-girlfriend, Christine. But when questioned by the judge the woman identified herself as Josephine. She said they met only about 20 minutes earlier at a bar and coffee shop.
ROFL. This guy litterally sounds like some some guy stopped pulled over for swerving.
