5934: Court Nutcases.


Courtroom dramas and sitcoms in a MultiCultClassics Monologue…

• A New York judge dumped two lawsuits by three people who appeared in the 2006 Borat movie. The individuals accused the movie producers of deceiving them over their roles in the film; however, the judge pointed out they had accepted loot and signed agreements. Guess these folks need some cultural learnings of American contract laws.

• A judge allowed 50 Cent the right to see his son regularly while battling for custody with the child’s mother. He’ll probably take the kid to see Borat.

• During jury selection for the O.J. Simpson trial, one prospective juror talked her way out of eligibility. “He chose to put himself in the public eye,” declared the woman. “He should be a little more self-conscious of his actions. … I think as far as the first trial, I felt he got away with murder!” Guess the woman needs some cultural learnings of American jury system.
