    • ‘You got a bad attitude’: Agitated judge tears off robe, tackles man in courtroom, video shows

  • A Michigan judge, growing increasingly frustrated with a defendant who was talking back to him, stormed down from his bench and rushed to help subdue the man as he resisted being handcuffed. It showed a rare instance of a judge physically intervening in a courtroom situation - something that at least one of the Michigan judge’s colleagues said was justified in this case. The four-minute, profanity-laced video showed the defendant, Jacob Larson, accusing Jackson County Circuit Court Judge John McBain of being “buddy-buddy” with a woman Larson had been accused of stalking for about a year, Mlive reported. The hearing was about Larson’s alleged violation of a personal protection order against the woman, who in the video is seated at a table next to Larson but whose face is blurred.

    • The sun is disappearing, and you have only 10 months to prepare

  • Don’t say you weren’t warned: Aug. 21, 2017, “may turn out to be the most popular vacation-day request in history,” Michael E. Bakich writes in Discover magazine - so you may want to get that time-off request in early. Why? Because on that date - for the first time in 99 years - a total eclipse of the sun will be visible across the United States, from sea to temporarily-not-shining sea. Millions of Americans will be in easy driving distance of a spectacle that has been called indescribable, unforgettable, even life-altering. The sun will disappear for about 2½ minutes, beginning in Oregon about 10:15 a.m. local time; the phenomenon will move eastward, ending an hour and a half later in South

    • Bill Clinton’s taxpayer-funded pad may violate nonprofit rules

  • Bill Clinton is enjoying the private residence above his presidential library in Arkansas at the expense of taxpayers and his charity foundation - a potential violation of nonprofit regulations. The 5,000-square-foot penthouse which sits atop the William J. Clinton Library in Little Rock is largely funded by the National Archives in Washington, which pours nearly $6 million into program and maintenance costs every year, a spokeswoman for the federal agency told The Post. Costs are also offset by a $7 million endowment from the Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Foundation. If Clinton is using the apartment for personal interests above the work of the Clinton Foundation and the library, he needs to inform the IRS, a charity expert says.

    • Woman sentenced to life as a juvenile now given 63-year prison term

  • As Jacqueline Montanez stood Friday in a packed Cook County courtroom, her blue pantsuit didn't cover the tattoos on her arms and neck, markers of a gang life that began when she was 13. Montanez, now 40, wept Friday as she told Judge Alfredo Maldonado that she had left that gang life behind her. "I'm not who I used to be," said Montanez, who has served 24 years in prison, more than half her life. Moments later, Maldonado resentenced her to 63 years in prison, clearing the way for her release in as soon as 7 1/2 years. The judge called the killings "an absolutely senseless tragedy" but said Montanez wasn't among the worst juvenile offenders who deserve a life sentence. Her case was one of dozens

    • Sheriff’s Deputies Nearly “Died Laughing” After Finding Home Intruder

  • 10/14/2016 Posted by When the Sonoma County Sheriff’s Office received a call about someone making a noise upstairs in a man’s house, they prepared themselves to face the worst.  When they came face-to-face with the culprit, they nearly died - of laughter.  The intruder?  One of the man’s dogs! Last week deputies were called by a distraught 18-year-old.  He had been home alone when his dogs began agitatedly barking.  He knew their barking meant something was wrong, so he did a bit of investigating and heard noises coming from upstairs, near the roof.  He barricaded himself and his pets and called 911. “We came out and he’s all afraid, thinking there’s a prowler in his house,” department spokesperson
