A woman is taken to court with NO PANTS ON - The Judge is very apologetic

Jail spokesman Steve Durham told reporters that leaving prisoners pantsless when they’re arrested in various states of decency is standard procedure for Metro Corrections’ officers.

“This is pretty standard that when individuals are arrested, they remain in the clothing that they’ve been arrested in. Especially for the first 72 hours.”

Jail officials also insist the defendant had “athletic shorts” on underneath the long T-shirt.

But Dwayne Clark, the Metro Corrections deputy director who brought clothing for the defendant, disagrees. He told Wolf that “dressed like she was,” the corrections officers should have given their prisoner a jumpsuit.

JUDGE AMBER WOLF: “I’M NOT ACCEPTING THIS SENTENCE, IT’S RIDICULOUS.”

Even before the judge realized the defendant had no pants Judge Amber Wolf had major issues with this case. As she looked over the notes, she frowned and declared that she found the proposed sentence too harsh for the crime.

“I’m not accepting this sentence, it’s ridiculous.”

The defendant had been arrested and thrown in jail for three days (with no pants) for the minor crime of failing to complete a diversion program after pleading guilty to shoplifting. Once. She has no other arrests or charges on her record.

A disgusted Judge Amber Wolf sentenced the defendant to a $100 fine which required no payment due to “time served.” Since the woman had to return to her jail cell until her imminent release, Wolf insisted that she first receive appropriate clothing.

When the defendant changed into her newly-arrived yellow jumpsuit and returned to the courtroom, Wolf offered a formal apology.

“Again, I want to extend my deepest apologies for the way you’ve been treated in our jail. It is not normal. this is not normal.”

But the defendant begged to differ. She told the judge that “other girls” in the jail had “similar clothes to what I had on.”
