Teen flips off judge

I'm sure many have heard about this one, but I haven't seen it posted yet. This is just more proof of how the youth today has no respect for anybody. Mouthing off to a judge is some SERIOUS CHIT! I would say she's lucky to have gotten off as easy as she did.

And of course, there is the media bias side to examine. The first link reports how she was disrespectful to the judge and got what she deserved, yet this second link says the judge over reacted and teh teen was just nervous.

The judge is a douchebag. Justice should be capable of making decisions without emotion. He should be able to take an insult. I grant you there needs to be respect but clearly something is wrong with that girl. "Adios" should have been an acceptable response when he said "bye-bye". What is the big deal? This is commonplace anymore. The people of Miami/Dade should be pissed off for having to foot the bill to house this POS for an additional 30 days. Still unreal how stupid people really are.

Court and judges are not a joke. You don't laugh and giggle like that in a court room, it shows lack of remorse. She was fully aware of what she was doing. Let me say adios to a judged and see what happens! Just another example of our disrespectfull youth. And by the way the judge has a right to be the way he is, because if I saw that ignorance come thru my court every day I wouldn't have tolerence either.

I was always taught respect your elders, and ESPESCIALLY the law. I tell my wife all the time that if I had talked to my parents or grandparents like her or her sister does, I wouldn't be here today because my dad would have killed me. And disrespecting a judge is HUGE no no, court is no joke. Used to be a very serious thing to go to court, but now it is entertainment with judges like judge Judy and the like putting it on TV(but even she wouldn't have put up with this). Most judges are very easy going so long as your respectful to them, but mouth off to them and they will bite you for it(figuritavely speaking).

Kracker, I gotta disagree with you a bit. The "original" questions to her were answered respectfully. It is NOT a crime to laugh, either in court or in public. In fact, laughing is a known nervous response, and the kid was obviously nervous. She didn't say anything disrespectful to the judge origionally, and judging from the judges accent, he was of a spanish nationally. Adios just means goodbye... it's NOT disrespectful, and is a perfect response to a friendly "bye-bye" comment from the judge. The judge over reacted to double the bail amount. Then the girl crossed the line, I totally agree, but there is a ton of guilt on BOTH sides of that bench. Actually, I think the judge should be brought to account for his actions.

According to many in the south Florida latino community, adios IS a HUGE insult when having a conversation in english(espescially how she goes from the pissed off face to the giggly f--k you when she says adios). It is right up there f--k you, and is a blatant insult. And the constant fiddling with her hair is also a HUGE F--K you in there culture. It is one of those things that can look innocent, but to that area it is not. IMO the judge was more than patient with her, and after repeated times telling her to be serious she continued to be disrespectful to the courtroom. Here is the most compelete version of it I have found.

And it seems the judge left an impression on her as she was MUCH more respectful when she returned to court.

I have utmost respect for the law and judges as taught by my parents. My daughter is being instructed to have the same respect.

Maybe she got what she deserves after all. BUT I still say
This girl is high, something is wrong with her. Even though the judge could have handled it better IMO. The guards of the jail should be there prepping the next customer for what to do and how to act. Especially the young and dumb uninitiated types..

Is it typical of a judge to ask of a defendant what her jawelry is worth?
If she had said it is worth a million dollars, what bearing would that have had on a simple drug posession bond hearing? Is he looking to move in on some of that gold or what?

If he is tired of being disrespected by the thugs down there in Miami, perhaps he should consider a different vocation. The more I think about it, the more I think Tri-County will be making a killing off this stupid girl.

i read all the posts and agree i can see he made a example of her for all to see but to me he lowered himself to her level---she may of thought he was joking about her ***elery and dose she have a mental problem who knows--- I think alot of people are against you judge--maybe she would of been better giving him the eyes of death like others do
