Chad Johnson angers judge, gets jail time

[SIDESHOW]

damn...

the first few seconds as SAS is sitting there in silence before he goes off

After seeing the video I don't think Chad meant it as a playful gesture.
I think it was more of a jock thing or something that an Athelete would do. Being that it is Chad everyone started laughing and the Judge got pissed.

I tried to give another view.

yeah man, the courtroom reaction did him in more than anything. still, Chad needs to know to just STFU and not do shit, like 99.9% of the rest of us would have done in that situation.

I want to feel for Chad but I don't. Fuck him.

chad was childish
-yet thats why the us is going broke, what does locking chad up due?

County costs (up)
prison costs(up)

fine his ass and send him home, our system is clogged with nonsense...
Was in court the other day,they bring this homeless drunk out from the pens (he was charged with drinking in public,missing dates) they remanded his ass back to jail..... (yeah real threat to society)

yeah, that's why you throw a man in jail.

Why is it that when i come on bgol, you get some of the most coon-tastic, white-boy loving, excuse making assholes for white hatred you will find on the web?

This man got thrown in jail for what exactly?

I know damn well my taxpayer dollars better not be going to some bullshit like this. Gas prices are high as hell. Wages are down. Cops out there murdering innocent people and rampaging through the black community.

And, you throw a man in jail for this shit?

And, instead of blaming this corrupt ass court/cop/jail system, you blame the black man?

This is why bgol feels like uncle tom central at times.

true true

damn i rushed to judge myself, after seeing that video that's messed up, then those officers didn't help, what the fk were they laughing at?? shyt reminded me of back in middle school, somebody touched this broads butt, a couple of people looked at me laughing and i got damn in house suspension I have to applaud Chad for just being quiet and not saying nothing after the judge changed her mind, i know how my attitude is.....i would've been like

If you go back to the Stephen A Smith reaction now he looks like a damn fool.
The same way he looked to me when he said he had no sympathy for Johnathan Vilma's situation, because Vilma wouldn't meet with the commissioner or open up to the Comissioner. Fuck the fact that Vilma had his own strategy, that wasn't good enough for Stephen A.

HNIC

let's see if he'll apologize, i'm almost sure a lot of people will have a change of heart, i know i did.

Memo to Judge Kathleen McHugh in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.:

Lighten up. It was a slap on the fanny. That's all it was. It came from a guy, Chad Johnson, who did not argue against a charge that he head-butted his wife in an argument. You, as the judge presiding in the original court case last year, had approved a sentence for the head-butt of probation and community service.

Then when Johnson failed to show up to a meeting with a probation officer, he landed back in front of you on Monday. You agreed to add three months' probation, community service and counseling to his original sentence but declined to send him to jail for his probation violation.

Then you took a serious proceeding and interjected a bit of casualness yourself -- asking him whether he was happy with his lawyer's work on his behalf. Yes, he was happy. He described the lawyer as "awesome." The description may not have been original, but the slap on the fanny confirmed his high opinion of his lawyer.

We all know, of course, that the Circuit Court of Broward County is a place where important matters are pondered and resolved, and we know that you must protect the dignity and the majesty of the court against unwanted intrusions of locker room levity and sophomoric behavior. There are victims in these cases, and it would be wholly out of line for a defendant to turn a judicial proceeding into a casual affair that might indicate justice is not being served and that he or she does not show proper contrition for his or her crime.

But, judge, you went too far. All you had to do was suggest to him that he was not nearly as cute as he thought he was. You could have given him a warning. Instead you decided that a guy who was on probation for a head-butt would serve 30 days in jail for a slap on the backside.

What was it, judge? The laughter in the courtroom? They were not laughing at you. They were laughing with Johnson as he expressed his relief that a humiliating and expensive episode was drawing to a close.

C'mon, judge. Johnson will be in jail Monday night. That's enough. If you let him out on Tuesday, you will have made your point. If you keep him in the Broward County Jail for 30 days, you will always be the judge who could not distinguish between a vicious head-butt and a triumphant slap on the fanny.

oh after watching that video i cant cosign none of you negropeans

she wanted him to give respect to his attorney and he did (in an athletes way of course)

that bitch just gets off on her power

she led him there

fucking crackas man

Good to see fellow level headed cats in this thread amongst the sea of activist judge sympathizers

fuck!!!!!

lol, somebody had posted it on bgol a while back, i think that's in Miami also.

 

[Rythm]

Classic Case of a Judge OVER-REACTING and making a decision based on Emotion..
she didn’t want that plea deal to begin with.

ok the judge let him off after serving 4 days out of the 120 day contempt charge

lets see what this white bitch does with a black athlete

 

[Uncontainable_Spirit]

Some of you Sambo cats KILL me. This was a power trip by the Judge plain and simple. There is NO way that Chad Johnson should be in jail behind this. NO FUCKING WAY!

 

[Duval's King]

Man wtf...I didnt say anything because i thought this was just Chad being a clown... after viewing the video it's clear that he and his attorney have a good relationship and the judge felt the need to flex her muscle.. Judge is guilty of abusing her powers...Chad is guilty of following her orders..

 

[Duval's King]

damn that judge was baiting the shit out of that idiot!

fuck!!!!!

If you listen closely the judge says that he's just gonna scare him i dont think he actually had to serve all those days

Nevermind i see you found it

[Amajorfucup]

Ok. This is where people can jump to conclusions without seeing all the evidence. I'm guilty of that on this one. Chad Johnson shouldn't have done that shit but it didn't seem like he did the shit to start any shit in the courtroom. It was inappropriate but the Judge didn't need to react like that either.

Chad still shouldn't have patted his attorney on the ass though. It's not a football field..it's a courtroom.

All this is true but your bottomline (which i bolded) is THEE bottomline. Its a fucking court room. Hes in there on a violation. Was it an overreaction on her part? Probably. Was he baited? Possibly. But guess what? It dont fucking matter. She's going home and Chad has to sit 30. Keep in mind that this is the same judge that presided over the original case so i assure you she is tired of Chad and has received criticism for accepting the plea to begin with. So in essence shes looking for a reason to house his ass. And if you brothers think a judge overreacting, power tripping, or attention whoring is ANYTHING but common practice then you need to get from off the couch and from in front of your computer and go observe some hearings from time to time.

Chad is a 35year old fucking man. Compose yourself like a got dam professional. He knew the stakes here, and if he didnt then the attorney should have and should have instructed him on simple court room etiquette and the tendencies of the judge (something a black attorney would have almost certainly have done).

That video doesnt change my stance one bit. He was clown for getting himself into this situation and he continues to conduct himself in the same fashion. Even an overreaction is still at the core a reaction. He should not have given her reason to react. Textbook example of giving them rope to hang you with.

Some of you Sambo cats KILL me. This was a power trip by the Judge plain and simple. There is NO way that Chad Johnson should be in jail behind this. NO FUCKING WAY!

Kill the bullshit. This is the same unprofessional, uninformed mindset that has broward county stuffed pack with niggas just like Chad but without the football talent. The only Sambo i see is Chad. The fool who allowed a reality whore and her TV show to cost him is livlihood, finances, and now freedom. Fuck this nigga. I'll save my sympathy for someone who deserves it.

This is very true too.

But Lindsay Lohan, Amanda Bynes, and Paris Hilton are allowed to act out in court and make a mockery of justice repeatedly, and just because those bitches have the right shade of skin, they're allowed to operate with impunity? Man fuck this racist bitch, fuck this racist ass system, and fuck any of you coon ass, Samuel L. Jackson in Django ass niggas in here supporting this fuckery It was a fucking joke. Damn. This is why I'm convinced that women shouldn't be in authoritative positions like this because you're playing with people's lives on your emotional whims. Bitch probably wish we was smacking the dust off of that pussy instead of his attorney's ass

Even if that's the case, you know that you're on her turf, no different than Judge Judy, you're supposed to show respect for the court, regardless of if the court hasn't shown you any!

Were ya'll raised by wolves or somethin'?!?

 

[cooliojones]

glad i waited till there was video. they had no specifics. the way it sounded, it sounded like he smacked his female attorney on the ass in front of a female judge. and that's not what happened.

she asked him if he was happy with the attorney and he said yes.

i honestly think that shit was instinct on his part.

the people working there were the unprofessional ones they started laughing and shit..

gave him 30 days for a good job

he shouldn't have done it. but in no way was that not taking this shit seriously. he congratulated dude the same way he been congratulating people for the past 20+ years of his life...

Actually I'm like at this ^^^

Complete power move by the bitch judge.

And EACH of them were thrown in jail, DON'T confuse the court system with the corrections department!

 

[Nemesis Prime]

they showed this on TMZ, apparently the judge wants a TV show. Harvey seem to know who she was. The black with the dreads on the show called her the "cute judge" in florida...

i know if she's telling me to be grateful to my attorney and then i show my gratitude to that very attorney, it shouldn't be a 30 day sentence

obviously chad put his guard down do to nature of the conversation between himself and the judge

miss me with all that other bullshit

 

[DatBoyNCali]

There's no confusion on my end homie. I think you're the one who may me lacking understanding. Those bitches repeatedly DUI, use drugs freely, and show constant disregard for the rules and regulations in socity and they are constantly given chance after chance after chance. True. They may be SENTENCED to jail, but how much of that "sentence" do they actually serve? Very little, if any. Go educate yourself before you try to get into a battle of wits with me because you're sorely lacking the ammo...

 

[Djmarkxr7]

Some of you Sambo cats KILL me. This was a power trip by the Judge plain and simple. There is NO way that Chad Johnson should be in jail behind this. NO FUCKING WAY!

Yes it is a power move by the judge...but what the fuck else do you think judges do?!?

There is NO SUCH THING as an altruistic judge, becoming a judge is ALL about power, and if you don't show the proper respect for that power then off to jail you go...

PERIOD!

For those that feel he was just doing what he always does, would it have been cool if he said "Fuck yeah judge, we good!"?

It's the same thing.

Doesn't matter if you're Black, White or even purple, there are times when you need to check yourself, or be prepared to suffer the consequences, hopefully ya'll learned something here today!

 

[Amajorfucup]

Further underlining my point (one of them). Chads attorney is a local guy. The first thing he should have done was tell Chad about this judge and her attention whoring ways, how she runs her court room, and how he should conduct himself. And again, i say if Chad had a brother representing him he would have made this crystal clear. Either way, this is on Chad.

Lol, bruh, YOU just made my point!

They did all that & their respective judges assigned the appropriate jail time for each offense... and THEN handed them over to the Corrections department who then released them shortly afterwards due to over-crowding, THAT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE COURT!

See, if the court assigned them 10 days or something like that you'd have a point, but LL was assigned some 90 days @ one time, & 120 days another, but the court system DOES NOT run the jail system!

Understand?

Agreed.

man i wouldve been fine with her hitting him with a weekend since it was still a stupid thing to do

but 30 days..for something "she" led him into?

fuck that...that bitch is high on power!

ALL judges are high on power, and abuse that power EVERY SINGLE DAY, THAT'S the reason why they became judges, to become a judge in the first place you have to kiss SERIOUS ass so when they get there they expect EVERYONE appearing in front of them to comply, or face their whims of the moment.

Remember that he was supposed to get 90 days so she probably feels as though she's still giving him a break with 30, but giving him a week or something to that effect would've sufficed, ESPECIALLY since she did egg him on, who knows if he would've done the same thing if she didn't speak on it first.

I would have done the same shit
