In Passing: Judges are Only Human

In Arkansas a Supreme Court Judge, Sam Pope, has been suspended for 30 days for getting himself into a fistfight.  In a Walmart’s no less!

Seems that Judge Pope’s wife was involved in extramarital behavior with a man whose name is Bill Murray (not that one).  The Judge was shopping with his daughter when he spotted his wife with Mr. Murray; the Judge confronted Mr. Murray, and the two exchanged obscenities before resorting to a physical scuffle, all of which was captured on video, including the Judge’s wife bonking him three times.  Someone dialed 911, and the combatants were hauled away in handcuffs.

Contrite, the Judge admitted his misdeed and agreed to attend anger-management classes.

Chivalry, Arkansas style?’
