I was leaving a DV situation in grad school and fell asleep in class numerous times. The professor, normally very cold, pulled me aside after class and asked what was going on. I said I was too scared to fall asleep at home. We developed a system where she’d tap me lightly if she noticed I was falling asleep, so I wasn’t embarrassed. I think of her often. I wish the judge had been more like her.
"The judge was trying to teach a lesson of respect" Bruh, ain't no one respecting him after that. He put a homeless teenager in cuffs because she was sleeping. Absolutely ridiculous
exactly. Perhaps the next time that judge is somewhere out in public where someone has professional power over him they can show him how it feels. Restaurant - We choose not to serve you, Retail - trespass him from the store, Garage - Were too busy to fit you in
I'm thinking if he had any clue about her situation, he would have went about all of that in a different way. From his POV, must have just seemed like a disrespectful teen. Idk what he would have done to mentor her tho.
As a person who has been to a courtroom(for HS credits), and watched. I can tell you, most of them are boring. Nothing like you see on TV or clips from trials that go on for weeks. Instead they usually bring the person in, say what they are there for, lawyer says they are pleading guilty, and judge sets a court date for sentencing, rinse repeat. Absolutely no objections statements, nothing. So I sat there for my 3 hours and left, very tired... If these kids were on a school trip, tired, fatigued, I probably would of done the same in her shoes.
"Bailiff, that child is evidently exhausted, can you escort her & a chaperone to my chambers so she can take a nap on the sofa or recliner there, while I continue the discussion with the rest of the field-trip group." That's maybe a better way to go, if there's a 'next time'. At least give the kid the benefit of the doubt, that falling asleep might not be a sign of disrespect.. but maybe a sign of sleepiness!
That judge: "If she doesn't respect me, then I won't respect her." The translation: "If she doesn't respect (my authority over her), then I won't respect (her as a person.) The classic power dynamic.
They do it tautologically! Aka, if they say you are lying, then by definition you are lying, even if you were telling the truth! That's why they are so good at it, 100% accuracy rate!
It is a constant struggle. People with power have a bad habit of seeking more power, and the most insidious are those that think they are are righteous. But with our founding statements including quotes like "Those who would sacrifice freedom for security deserve neither", well, we can still get pretty feisty when it comes to pushing back on government overreach. Though sometimes it takes a few years of court fights to sort out.
If you aren’t here I don’t think you know the half of it. You have governments getting sued and then being the judge and jury presiding over their own case. The ATF is an abomination of an authoritarian organization who shouldn’t exist. The two parties that make up our entire government are more interested in maintaining power than actually doing their job and serving the public like they’re supposed to. Freedom has become something that we define within specific boundaries, but if you start getting too free then the corporations who support the US economy and fund the government have no control to keep you working for cheap so they need to reign you back in. I think a good example of this is Ruby Ridge. Nonviolent family who was armed and just wanted to be left alone ended up having a couple of them murdered by police and the FBI supported the unconstitutional siege on their property. We are more free in some ways, but absolutely enslaved and controlled in others.
I would say that ppl are simply more plugged in to American politics. We're a country of 300 plus mill with a lot to offer and are going to have regulations to match that.
I genuinely started crying listening to that woman talk about what her daughter was going through. I was homeless for nearly three weeks when I was 9 years old. The second weekend I didn’t sleep or eat from school lunch Friday to school breakfast Monday. I ate so fast I immediately threw it all back up and cried until I fell asleep on a cot in the nurses office. NINE FUCKING YEARS OLD. That judge having the balls to show his face in public after torturing that little girl without a shred of remorse is a genuine injustice.
I know what you went through. I was homeless when I was 13. My mother, little brother and I slept in our small 1977 Hatchback Toyota Corolla. So, school meals were what we depended on and sleep was minimal often non-existent because I was scared of being robbed or worse, being taken away. That judge is a bully and deserves to learn what it’s like to be struggling. Shame on him and his superiors that allowed it to happen!
@@albasanchez6014 I’m so sorry y’all went through it too. Makes me so fucking angry when people without a clue open their mouths, because they never say anything good.
Right?! I wonder how many ppl are serving unfair time for perceived "attitude" instead of based on the actual alleged crimes. For him to double down and not apologize...it's probably a large amount of ppl. SMH
As someone who had undiagnosed narcolepsy for years, falling asleep in front of someone like that power-tripping poor excuse of a judge was my worst nightmare. It’s not disrespectful. It’s a sign of health issues or environmental issues. I’m so enraged that any adult would find it reasonable to punish and humiliate a child for that.
My immediate thought with the judge was "How do you know why she's falling asleep?" People really believe that if someone isn't on the street, they can't possibly be homeless. Homeless people are all around us and it's really gross for a Judge of all people to jump to "scaring her straight". Not to mention that falling asleep isn't disrespectful, it's indicative of a bigger problem.
My thoughts exactly, his judgment is clearly flawed and has no place on the bench. He seemed so drunk on his own authority he can't see anything from an alternate view and then to have the gall to offer to mentor her...man, stfu
Not to mention seeing that mother bawling her eyes out in powerless desperation and condescendingly asking to mentor that girl, which he would probably abuse.
Busta Rhymes was performing a concert. He got upset with a crowd member for not standing. Busta started getting angry and used bad language to the seated guy. The guy was paralyzed and thats why he didn't stand. This judge reminds me of Busta Rhymes at that concert.
Some cops can’t tell the difference between a phone and a gun, and we’re expected to believe they can tell the difference between a mask for health reasons vs criminal reasons?
The difference is "Does this person kiss my ass enough, am I in a good mood, and are they the right skin color?" for like.... 99.99% of cops. Also how anti-mask the cop is. I guarantee you anything more than a baggy blue surgical's going to attract a lot of attention, especially those of us who wear elastomeric half or full face masks for extra protection or just because they're more comfortable/economical.
When you have 2 tenths of a second to decide if what you are seeing is a gun or a phone and you believe it's cut and dry you are a complete moron. Under the best circumstances you and anyone else can and will be fooled. Think before making yourself sound even dumber than you already are.
Any child falling asleep during the day, class or on a field trip... you have to wonder why they are falling asleep. It's not intentional. If you are tired you are tired, it has nothing to do with showing respect, more to do with a person's health. The judge is cold hearted. Instead of being concerned for her health he lashes out at her for being "disrespectful".
As a teacher, I would have gone to jail for contempt before that girl changed into “jail clothes”. Don’t touch my babies! Falling asleep could be due to a medical concern, issues at home like homelessness or working nights. This child was NOT a criminal and falling asleep isn’t against the law! 😡
All of this. Even if that kid fell asleep because they stayed up playing video games all night, you aren't disrespecting one of my students that way. It doesn't even look like it was real court but some kind of lecture so judge can't even do that. If a child is falling asleep in your presentation then you are boring and you need to fix that.
When I was in high school I began getting very sleepy all the time and legitimately tried my best but I just couldn't stay awake. I was nodding off or sleeping through most of my classes for about 3 days. My English teacher snapped on me in front of the entire class. I felt horrible. Told me I needed to stop "whatever you're up doing all night and get some rest." One day I realized something was wrong and drove myself from the school to the emergency room. I just left. Didn't tell my teachers or anything. The hospital was close. They called my mom and she called the school after. I had a blood sugar of almost 900 and was in keto-acidosis. I was diagnosed as a Type 1 diabetic that day. Nobody should ever, ever shame a child for being sleepy. I don't care when or where they're sleeping. Talk with them in private if you think it's just disrespect and/or bad decisions. There are so many possible reasons. That judge should be ashamed and should face some sort of penalty. What that is, I do not know. But I believe an inquiry at the very least is in order due to his poor judgement as a JUDGE.
That's what I was thinking. That child could very well have had an undiagnosed health issue like diabetes or narcolepsy. Putting a kid in handcuffs isn't going to address the source of the issue.
@@luckylarita1630 She did talk with me after and she apologized. I went back to school about a week later and had to have a meeting with all of my teachers to get the work I needed to get caught up. I was out of school for another week after that. She was almost in tears apologizing to me. I told her it was okay. I was a pretty good/docile kid so I was just amazed that a teacher would ever apologize to me so I just told her it was all okay because I mainly just felt awkward about it. I doubt she ever called out a kid in front of the entire class for sleeping again, though.
Seriously, what a power tripping moron. The court isn't the place to be hot headed and for his inability to put his most petty emotions aside while working a very important role he should be made to step down because he's potentially ruining peoples lives with his inability to think clearly.
banning masks when there’s been a increase in monkey pox cases and claiming police are “human lie detectors” and that “they’ll know when it’s for crime and when it’s for medical reasons” is such a strange thing to do especially when police are already feared because of how rough they are
Two years ago you couldn't go to the park without a mask in NY, now they're going to arrest you for having one on? Covid didn't go anywhere, this is just going to be used as another excuse for police to harass people.
Yeah, this will stop criminals from wearing disguises and masks.....Phew!!! LOL. There's been literal signs on banks for years stating, no helmets, no masks, etc. LOL. All they're doing is giving police extra powers to harass people, namely the vulnerable groups. Winter is coming, are they going to crime detect every person wearing scarfs around their faces.... LOL. They'll ban sunglasses soon, followed by weaves, wigs and beards.
Not that the girl did anything wrong in this situation, but this is exactly the reason why punishment doesn’t work and positive reinforcement does. Punishment teaches kids that bad behavior that isn’t seen doesn’t get punished, so they’re just taught to hide it better and everyone time they get away with something it reinforces that. Positive reinforcement works because positive behavior has to be seen to be rewarded. If they exhibit bad behavior that doesn’t get seen there’s no benefit to it. I could go into the fact that “bad behavior” is generally just a child experiencing an emotion they haven’t been taught how to handle, but I could be here all day. 😂
I’ll never forget the teacher that yelled at me for falling asleep in class. I told her I’d been up all night comforting my father, whose baby brother had died of cancer, and she didn’t care. Whatever I slept through that one day made no difference in my life. That teacher who always acted like the kids’ friends treating me that way instead of asking why I had been in the position of comforting my parents and showing some compassion had a lifelong effect.
As a teacher, the first thing I thought about that judge story was that the student probably had a lot going on at home causing them to fall asleep. Sometimes it’s deeper than “disrespect”.
sleeping shouldn't ever even be seen as disrespectful, like, its a natural human process. You can't just will yourself to fall asleep without being tired, and especially can't be like "HAHAHA, FUCK THIS GUY, I'M GONNA SLEEP IN HIS COURT ROOM!"
@@OnlyForThePriceOf999 I fell asleep during a presentation thing in middle school once because there were like sixty kids crammed into one classroom, the only lights being from the projector, and I was tired. The teachers were acting like I did it on purpose.
I used to fall asleep in class all the time due to being on copious amounts of SSRIs my doctor perscirbed me from being in a mental hospital for my suicide attempts. Plus every Tuesday morning was the worst for me cause I couldn't fall asleep at home cause my father refused to stop yelling at the TV for WWE Monday Night RAW even after I told him I couldn't sleep because of it. (He never stopped so I learned to just stay up until past 10pm after the show ended. I had to be up at 6am.). My teachers always made me stay awake and I hated it. I was going through depression at such a young age mix that in with a narcissistic abusive father who constantly screamed at the TV, me, and my mother, no wonder why I kept falling asleep...
That judge abused his authority because he felt the need to bully a child, never bothering to discover WHY she was falling asleep. It was never about "teaching her a lesson". It was about an adult deciding he wasn't getting the respect he demanded. That poor kid was detained without charges, put on trial, threatened with jail time and will probably never trust the justice system again. "Was I really gonna do that, probably not. Could I have, probably so." This guy thinks falling asleep in his courtroom is a punishable crime. At the very least he needs to be fired and sued.
I'm not 100% sure, but i think this judge has done stuff like this before, like getting mad when and refusing an extension when a plantifs mom asked because plantif had been in a rehab center. At least, that is what i remember all around, which seems like arrogant with an ego and power trip
@@mattsarvitisulfur5647After doing this in an informal setting, I can't even imagine how that tyrant would flaunt his power during actual court. Absolutely no respect for the people hs supposed to be serving.
Shes not homeless mother renting doesn't mean u don't have a home sharing a bed doesn't mean you don't have a bed stop projecting look up this cases people already exposed what she said as not factual to the situation judge was trying to make amends by offering a mentorship would of opened so many doors for that family but they just want quick cash, it speaks volumes about them along with the lies they said stop projecting my man
@@jrodriguez2133 Mentorship my ass. That guy looks like he has power trip issues and would abuse the kid again. Maybe even have a sexual agenda. Judges are not saints.
Fr he's acting like court rooms aren't designed to make the audience fall asleep. No moving, no talking, no phones, no standing up, no leaving, and the entire room is next to dead silent for several hours. I fell asleep on my court room field trip too in high school, and the teachers/security just nudged me awake a few times because they're not monsters.
Its nothing but a show of his power dynamic. He loves to show it just like US Police. He knows regular citizens would'nt stand a chance against him in the court. Same thing happens in companies to the lower level employees get bullied or even SA'd by their higher level managers just so they can have a ego boost.
Police are absolutely not human lie detectors! I was in an accident and the police accused me of faking my injuries. Why? Because I'm autistic, so my stims and lack of facial movement and monotone voice due to autism were "proof" that I was lying. "If you were telling the truth then you'd be a lot more emotional right now!" Well sorry that I have alexithymia and am unable to emote the way a neurotypical person can. Guess my disability makes me a liar...
As a neurodivergent person, I do not trust people when they say they can detect lies. Some of the mannerisms that come naturally to me are frequently classified as “suspicious” or evidence that someone is trying to hide something. I fidget, I struggle with eye contact, I can’t sit still, I sometimes emote strangely and say things that can sound strange to people who don’t know me and how my mind works. I’m already nervous that my coworkers will misunderstand me. I don’t want to have to worry about cops, too.
I can’t agree more. You can absolutely make an educated guess as to whether someone is lying, but there is NO way to know that you’re right and there’s no way to know if you’re wrong. Personally, my energy when it comes to cops is this, in case anyone else would like to adopt it: - I’m white and should use the privilege I am granted by this fact, to waste the HELL out of their time. Make them wait on the warrant, make them feel all disrespected, I don’t care. Spend all their time and money because then they can’t spend that time hurting someone else or being discriminatory towards someone else. - explicitly state to a cop, security guard, etc, some indication of mental health problems. Be it “I’m having an anxiety attack” or “I am diagnosed x” this puts it on record if they have a body cam or if there are witnesses, that you informed the officer of your condition so they should shift their approach. (Key word being “should”). - any communication other than asking for a female cop (I’m a woman), telling them you’ll wait on a warrant, and informing them of your condition is unnecessary. (Also providing ID if it is the law in your state). Words past that should be “AM I BEING DETAINED?” and/or, “LAWYER!” Regardless of your ability to afford one. Save your words for an appointed attorney, that’s better than incriminating yourself unintentionally or by miscommunication. Also bonus: ALWAYS take the breathalyzer if you haven’t been drinking, if you have, maybeeee don’t drive.
Lie Detection is a farse, be it with a machine or by optics. I've BPD too and I often Say/react to things in a way that is not reflective of how I feel. I am getting better at controlling it, but sometimes I will get overly upset over something minor, and it will take me 5-10 minutes to convince myself it's not a big deal. I can totally see how someone who doesn't know me would presume I am a psychopath sometimes. Fearing the authority because of your mental health is the last thing someone working on their mental health needs.
I wouldn't trust that Judge around a kid. His instant reaction to an innocent child falling asleep was that they weren't "showing enough respect" Nah, respect is earned. Attention is demanded.
As an educator who works with college students from all walks of life, I am *appalled* by that judge's rant. As soon as he started lecturing, I said to my TV screen "You have NO IDEA what her home situation is." And then we find out that she and her mom don't even *have* a home. That was absolutely abhorrent behavior. This was a school field trip, not a reality TV show.
His excuse that he was trying to "Teach her a scared straight lesson" was a pretext to cover his egotistical rage at feeling disrespected. I think he fully intended to put her in juvy in the moment but realized the optics.
dude seriously tried to help them out by mentoring her it would of opened so many opportunities for her 9times out of 10 kids who are tired like this aren't managing their time by staying up late on social media mom wouldn't take a mentorship from a judge she did her daughter a dis service
@@rajb7653 Alternatively, maybe a "strong man" put her in that situation. Just like that judge had no clue about that girls home life, neither do we. End of the day, that girl is not responsible for the fact she doesn't have a stable place to sleep and therefore "strong man" or not, that is irrelevant to the attitude the judge exhibited.
That judge should be fired right away. Absolutely disgusting for him to berate that young girl for falling asleep like it’s her choice. You don’t know what is going on in someone’s life or if they have a medical condition. Have compassion, be considerate, and just do better.
Nah he a champ. Kids get away with so much and hopefully him scaring her straight will prevent her from getting into crime and maybe change her.attitude
I am from Guatemala, the first ever olympic medal winner from Guatemala is Eric Barrondo. He won silver in racewalking. He had no coaches, trained himself and couldn't even afford proper shoes. In a interview he said that someone once gifted him a pair of proper shoes, but he would only wear them on races because he could not afford to replace them from wear and tear. Now imagine someone like him, what he could have achieved with the proper training, diet, and equipment. Sports have always been unjust, it just seems that now they are a bit more so.
Check out farmer Cliff Young. Athletes get too into their head. They might be good, but there's always the possibility of someone better. I hope he is proud of what he accomplished 😊❤️
The case of the middle class professor who nominated herself and placed her husband on the selection committee for Australian Olympic Breakdancers is a prime example. The really talented group of breakers couldn't afford to travel across the country to try out. It's big in the performance and comedy festivals in the UK. Well off young people able to bank roll a whole show with very little talent and their parents help.
The best swimmer in the world will never have access to an Olympic pool. The fastest runner will be discouraged because he needs to feed his family. The Olympics are just a display of the politics and favors of an entire country.
Spot on. The Olympic story is just...sports. I´m a big tennis fan and it´s just "fun" see the background of the players...just today there´s women´s final with a billionaire playing on it. The omnium bikes can cost up to 15k... Portugal didn´t have an olympic sized pool until 1998 and nowadays only has like 3 of them... We could go on and on...
Long time viewer Phil, so know that this is the lightest, friendliest critique. A lot of the time, I’m just listening while doing other stuff, and every once in a while recently, you’ll have a show where I have a hard time noticing when one story ends and another starts. As a minor quality boost, I’d make those “and then…” transitions a touch more prominent somehow or otherwise make sure to really bookend some of the stories. Only bringing it up cause I know how much you and your team value this kind of thing. Thanks for bringing me my news! 🖤🖤🖤
I like this idea. For my own train of thought, clear transitions can be very helpful in my comprehension because I normally listen to the episodes as podcasts while commuting.
As soon as the judge started berating that poor girl for sleeping I thought "maybe she can't sleep at home and she's tired". And then her mom confirmed exactly what I was thinking. That was so embarrassing for that poor girl to have to put up with a judge on a power trip trying to parent her. I was ALWAYS tired as a teen because I worked after school to help my mom pay bills on top of having insomnia and I was treated like a criminal for falling asleep in school even when I had good grades and graduated with extra credits. I don't understand why kids are treated like they're doing something wrong or disrespectful just for being TIRED.
I understand. I fell asleep at school because I have juvenile lupus, and a combination of medical reactions causing insomnia and domestic violence abuse prevented me from sleeping at night. He could have played a positive role in that girl's life. He missed an opportunity to show mercy and perhaps interest those kids in a career in law enforcement.
We really don’t know what goes on in kids homes. There was this girl in first grade who had urinary incontinence. A lot of kids made fun of her. As I got older I found out she was being AS’d at home. I get sick to my stomach thinking how she must of felt. This judge didn’t know the situation and to offer to coach her !? The ethics here are questionable he’s also an ass🕳️
Judge is nuts if he wanted to teach her a lession its enough to ask her to leave the courtroom, she would already be embarassed in front of her classmates, to cuff her is insane and just a power trip for a judge
The Judge having the gall to "mentor" the girl he traumatised really shows how far apart their worlds are. Dude legit believes he has helpful advice to offer to a kid who doesn't have access to resources like a fucking home.
When I was a kid a teacher got mad that I didn't pay for something that everyone else was paying for, no more than 10 dollars, putting me on blast. I cried from shame. My mom later tore him a new one, telling me later she gave him the money while saying "my kids won't have milk this week." She wasn't exaggerating, we were having money troubles and she was doing her best, which I knew but I was a very reserved child and was caught off guard by the teachers reaction. He gave me the money back the next day, extremely ashamed and apologelic.
@@joegei3581when you’re a young child the last thing you often want is to have a spotlight cast upon you. Best thing he coulda done was offered to apologize in front of the class, which most kids would decline.
I've had a teacher do that to me too. Near the end of the school year he kept taking us on short notice field trips. My mom was jobless and on welfare. Mind you, where I live you can get stuff like field trips for school covered by the state, but you have to place the request several weeks in advance for it to go through in time, which he made impossible by deciding on Monday we were going somewhere on Wednesday. Meaning my mom would have to pre-pay the money. She would be reimbursed eventually, but for the moment, it would be cutting into our already tight grocery budget. So eventually, after multiple of these trips, she had enough and refused to pay, because it was piling up, the reimbursements were taking their sweet time coming in, and we needed groceries. I was even fine staying with another class for the day but he insisted I had to come, so he paid for my bus ticket and museum entry. How nice, right? But then he would not stop hounding me about getting that money back, no matter how often I told him we literally didn't HAVE it. This was about like 8$ and teachers make quite good money where I live. He got in cahoots with my homeroom teacher on the last day to hold my report card hostage and not allow me to leave until my mom came to school with the money. He called her multiple times while I told him to stop because she was in a job interview but I guess he thought I was just making excuses. I eventually told him I didn't care about not getting my report card, I was leaving. He tried to stop me but there wasn't much he could do without crossing the line of legality. My mom got the job and our situation finally improved but she never did give him that money back lol
Your mom is a legend for that. Some people are so ignorant to others’ financial struggles and they need to be reminded. As someone who also grew up poor I salute her 🫡
That judge who humiliated and talked down to a tenage girl is horrible. He needs to resign. He saw a sleeping child and decided to make a mockery of her in front of her classmates. The only lesson he taught and understands is abuse of power. If anyone in the courthouse helped him in that stunt, they need to be tried in court instead of running one.
As someone who would fall asleep on field trips due to an undiagnosed illness I’m so angry 😡 the bus trip, the walking, the change of routine always drained me, that man is a judge, he’s job is to weight up the ‘whys’ and ‘hows’ before passing judgement but some how it never accord to him to wonder or ask why - on a field trip (which are meant to be interesting and different from the boring norm of school at the very least) that a student would be fall asleep. Not wonder if the student was coming down with the flu, has a medical condition, or didn’t have a stable home because of the economy, dude needs to educate himself, he shouldn’t be offering to mentor, he needs to get *himself* a mentor. Jeez.
I'm a teacher and as SOON as they said the girl was falling asleep in the courtroom I was horrified that the judge would treat her like that. It throws up major red flags for me if a child is sleeping in class - it is NEVER their fault (have you ever tried to fall asleep intentionally somewhere uncomfortable while sitting upright?) and is always due to issues at home, or a medical issue e.g. insomnia. What an idiotic judge.
I'll be honest, I totally did fall asleep in class sitting upright a few times back in high school lol. Granted, we started at 6:30 am and I had about a 50 minute bus ride in the morning before I could drive so I guess I kind of get it.
yeah I knew a teacher who had narcolepsy and sometimes would fall asleep during field trips.Of course as kids we thought it was funny Mr. K was snoring during a high school play. Our other teacher told us why that happened, and it really taught me to be more empathetic.
Not really. I didn’t care for orchestra and every time we went on a trip there I purposely fell asleep in those seats as I’d be bored otherwise. So yes kids can choose to sleep on a trip even if it’s loud and not comfortable.
My first thought of a teen falling asleep in a courtroom was, "Yeah, it's boring. I can't blame you," and then hearing it happened twice, "oh shit was she narcoleptic? Maybe didn't sleep over studying?" I'm not a judge- but neither of my first thoughts were, "OH YOURE SO RUDE AND ENTITLED!!"
The fact its a black judge doing that to a black child on top of it just hurts my heart. And this is a running theme for so many black judges. They want to “prove a point” by being 10x harder on black suspects. Hes the exact type of person that wasnt shit in high school, somehow got his hands on a crumb of power, and decided to make it everyone else’s problem, mixed with all the racial politics that come with that. Its so frustrating
To be fair I used to fall asleep in school all the time and it was just because I was bored and back when I was a kid I could sleep all day and night it was weird because now as an adult I can barely get 4 hours of sleep
And even ignoring the possible health reasons, there's one big factor: kids and teens need more sleep than adults (teens need 8-10 hours at least according to scientists). But our society pushes kids and teens to a schedule that is completely unsuitable and more fitted to the needs of parents - from school starting extremely early in the morning, to kids/teens being into loads of extra curricular activities that take the time they would have to rest, so it's not surprise that she fell asleep in a boring situation.
9:23 you DO NOT know what is going on in a child's life. When I was 16 Into was constantly falling asleep. It is not ALWAYS because you ego can't handle all the attention in a room full of teens. My dad was abusive and used sleep deprivation. You know what my teachers did? They didn't punish me. They let me sleep and with time stay after class to make upy work and made signed notes allowing me to go to the library after school to finish my homework and assignments!!! I became a teacher and I learned from mines. I let my students sleep. I don't pop off. Even if they are teens THEY ARE STILL KIDS!!! You sir shouldn't have been in charge of teaching the children about the musical system. You just taught all those impressionable minds that you in fact do have a power thus for can be easily corrupted.
Yes, because if there's any way to prevent a child from growing up to be a criminal it's to show them that Judges don't care about your wellbeing and will treat you like crap regardless. Really intelligent lesson Judge. Sheesh.
That mask law is idiotic. There are actual health reasons to wear a mask if you go to any large event. I work with the elderly and dying, I try to wear a mask whenever I expect to be in a big crowd. Making that illegal literally endangers the lives of my clients!
are choices in apparel for the sake of expression, outside of "obscene" things, not protected by the first amendment? would the armbands in school cases not also apply to masks in public? this law sounds unconstitutional to me.
@@williambrown3699 Logically, you're correct, it's 100% unconstitutional, but it'll have to be appealed up the SCOTUS before they decide if that matters or not.
if the police can sniff out who did and didn't do a crime then why are so many people wrongly jailed? how can you even say that without laughing at how absurd that statement is?
I used to fall asleep in class all the time because I had a horrible home life. Some of my teacher would scare me awake and it was awful.... Everyone staring at you. But then the librarian saved me, I was a student aid for them and she'd let me sleep, she knew something was wrong even though I didn't share all the details.. If a child was able to fall asleep multiple times during a short field trip, something is wrong! It's a cry for help at times! Why do they automatically assume they are being rebellious? This could have been a great opportunity to build rapport and show kindness....... so disappointing...
His attitude about the whole situation leads me to believe he lumps all teens into the same group. It's like he sees them all as future criminals and current troublemakers. For his knee-jerk reaction to be 'I'ma show this punk who's boss', it's wholly unsavory. This incident should be enough to prevent him from presiding over any cases involving minors.
Same here. I fell asleep every day in school because I didn't sleep well at home. I stayed up late every night waiting for my creep step dad to go to bed first. I didn't trust him.
As someone who has two sleep disorders that weren’t diagnosed for about half a decade- fuck that judge. If someone is sleeping in public, there’s a reason.
i started crying the second i heard about that girl falling asleep in the courtroom. the older you get the more you realize that these teenagers are still KIDS. i remember being exhausted constantly in high school and falling asleep in class all the time no matter how hard i tried. you never know people's home situations or what they're going through, especially teenagers and kids. that girl is so worried about her life already, to then be threatened and humiliated in front of her peers, i cant even begin to describe how angry i am for her. he taught her nothing except that people in power will abuse it any chance they get.
As soon as the kid falling asleep in the courtroom was mentioned, I suspected that she didn’t have adequate/stable housing. I’m all for discipline and expectations about behavior, but that should never harden into a rigid mentality where we fail kids and neglect their needs.
I'm a woman from India and I am utterly terrified that the investigation of the crime that was inflicted onto the doctor will not see a fair investigation or trial. There were some 1000 violent individuals who attacked the protesters in West Bengal and were trying to tamper with evidence. There are also people online making fun of the victim and stating they wish they could have been part of the gang that committed these vile and disgusting acts. I am scared, not just for myself but for my family and friends that might one day come across these people.
I'm always super creeped out by people in positions of power who first bully children with that power, and then "offer to mentor" them after they find out about a difficult home life. The Law and Order episodes write themselves with that shit.
Makes sense. It often goes the opposite way too. There’s a correlation and it definitely seems tied to wanting to control a vulnerable person either by punishment or by “niceness”
The judge story made me so sad, but the interview with the mother absolutely broke my heart. That experience was just salt in the wound for her and her daughter. I wish them the best for them in finding a permanent home as soon as possible. Hopefully this experience taught the judge a valuable experience.
It likely isn't the first time he's heard a story like that but it is also quite cruel to punish someone for something they did without knowing the reason behind it, especially when he knows that he's dealing with troubled adolescents.
Hopefully the judge looses his job. He used his authority to bully. I'm sure it's not the first time. No one is going to be treated fairly in his courtroom with those attitudes.
As a lecturer, you don't know what the circumstances are in a students life that leads one to fall asleep in class. Falling asleep isn't a sign of a student having an attitude, it's a sign they're tired
what??! as a former sleepy teenager struggling with life and school, not ONCE have i seen anyone be like “hehe imma be disrespectful, watch this! Zzzzzz”. your body is struggling to keep up. it’s a cry for help at worst, and at best you’re just having a bad day. the judges attitude is appalling, i wouldn’t trust him to rule over parking tickets
I really felt for that girl. I had a high-school teacher who would make snide remarks about me and another student nodding off in class and how "we should go to bed earlier instead of playing video games". The other student was working two jobs, and I was up most nights due to pain from medical issues. It really annoyed me because despite everything going on, we both had A's, so he obviously wasn't concerned about our education. I'm a teacher now, and yes, while I will talk with a student I see constantly dozing off, I won't put them on blast. Especially since whenever a student has been disrespectful, they don't do it by sleeping. Sleeping in class 9.5/10 times turns out to be an outside issue like insomnia, new baby, bad work schedule, etc. Even then, I've NEVER felt the urge to embarrass a student. If I need to lecture them, I do it privately.
Teachers like you are appreciated! I've had insomnia my whole life and it really became an issue for schooling in my teens, and the teachers that understood and gave grace are how I got through at all. You never know what someone is going through, talking to them and asking questions in private is what a teacher should do.
Exactly! I slept constantly during college and it wasn't because I was bored, it was because I was struggling badly with depression and anxiety. I was asked to leave class a couple of times and it was really humiliating. Teachers should be mindful of their students if even a little. I wasn't being disrespectful, I was trying my best by attending class while on 4 hrs of sleep :(
Continue to be that great teacher! Those are the ones that we remember for life. I have one teacher that I still stay in touch with and visit occasionally even though I graduated high school 7 years ago. I probably wouldn't have even graduated if it wasn't for her. She always went above and beyond in every manner for her students, and especially for me. Wishing you nothing but the best!
My first thought about that judge story was 'what if that girl doesn't have a good home life?! ' and lo and behold. It's not her family's fault, they're doing the best they can. When will these conservatives realize that a strong hand isn't what these kids need, and has never been?
@@danzed5051 You can be firm without heing strong handed. It's not that hard. Being firm would be to expel from the court. You recognize someone's autonomy while setting clear boundaries in your interactions with them. Doing the whatever that was, is to establish, demand, and maintain your power over them, so they can obey you not from alignment but from coercion. And that is not how a child is supposed to grow up. The judge made up his mind the girl was lazy. If this wasn't a judge but a parent, what effect do you think that has on a child growing up? Rather than being understood and supported for issues, they are instead modeled authoritarianism and is constantly stripped of their identity until what remains is a label of laziness, which isn't even true.
They’re never going to realize it cuz their logic is, “well I went through it and I turned out alright.” Not even realizing they have deep rooted unaddressed trauma, that is negatively affecting themselves and the people around them
That judge doesn’t realize “scared straight” was a massive failure does he? Troubling to see someone so incompetent and sure of themself WITH POWER. Bullying, power tripping, seems unaware of bad practices, generally ignorant… horrible behaviour from a judge. If only he could reflect on his own behaviour honestly but a homeless girl being sleepy being threatened??? Insane
It wasn't a massive failure, it absolutely works. The problem is, people are who they are. Some are on the fence and some can never be fixed, because they're born that way.
@@williameldridge9382 lol it doesn't absolutely work, all statistics show otherwise. Using "some people are just bad" especially on teenagers who literally have not fully formed personalities and are still developing mentally is ridiculous and factually incorrect. Besides, she didn't need to be scared straight in the first place. They were there for an educational field trip, not a scared straight or troubled youth visit. A normal response to a student falling asleep would be to ask if they're ok and could they please stay awake. She didn't commit a crime.
Hearing the phrase "Law enforcement will know the difference between someone wearing a mask for criminal or medical reasons" made me laugh, who are they kidding?
So are people who wear masks for accepted reasons in Nassau County just going to be harassed into proving they need on? How do they possibly go about enforcing that? I know many people who are immunocompromised and must wear masks in public. I would be horrified if they were stopped and questioned by police or anyone else about why they need a mask. That is so violating.
We also need the people in our lives to wear masks in public too, so what are they supposed to do? Am I supposed to get a doctors note that explains I am in contact with them so they can wear a mask? It's absurd and absolutely just so police can harass people.
Putting that poor girl in a criminal outfit and handcuffs is IMMORAL and DISRESPECTFUL. You don't know what that poor girl is going through to reason she is falling asleep on a FIELD TRIP. Children usually see field trips as fun and exciting you won't normally see a child sleeping during one! She could have had a medical condition, insomnia, be abused at home, living in an unsafe environment, homeless (like the situation ended up being) so this is honestly disgusting they did that. There is a way to educate while not traumatizing kids wtf
Man, it's been a while since I've shed a tear at one of these stories but seeing that mom cry on TV while talking about her and her kids' living situation just killed me. I hope that judge learns some empathy.
It's funny how republicans will yap ceaselessly about how laws against criminals (for example, gun laws) don't work because "They're criminals! Why would they care about the law?" until it's laws that fit their little belief system.
It is a new stop & frisk there is literally no difference except they can only go after mask wearers (you know over half the population because we never actually dealt with Covid we flat out gave up)
As soon as you said a kid fell asleep on a school trip, I thought "they have bigger issues at home that mean school is when they get to recooperate." Most teachers will recognise this issue, but clearly this judge assumes the worst instantly.
9:45 that judges interview dug his grave. He didn't care about the only thing that should matter to him... JUSTICE. He wanted to show his power and didn't care what it meant. He sees himself as Authority and everyone else is his subject.
9:31 absolutely disgusting. As a person with narcolepsy, this is one of my biggest fears. No one should ever get in trouble for falling asleep. If you’re falling asleep in public it’s almost definitely because your body NEEDS sleep. And a lot of the time when the body needs sleep the conscious human brain doesn’t have control over that.
No, she got in trouble because she basically told him to go fuck himself without saying it directly. Her attitude got her where she was, not her falling asleep.
I fell asleep during a wedding and almost fell out of my seat as the bride walked down the aisle… I also fell asleep in a new hire orientation with the director across the room from me. I never knew if she found out. 🤷♂️
my first thought too! im also narcoleptic and have fallen asleep at work, on phone calls (so consistently my friends "tuck me in" over call haha), at BAND REHEARSALS! if i cant fight off a sleep attack two feet from a snare drum, what makes them think id be able to do that literally Anywhere Else? im truly lucky to have the friends i do who are actual Kind People (unlike a certain judge) who keep me from falling over during an attack and who recognize what it really is: my body needing something and providing it in the only way it knows.
9:00 It reminds me when I was in preschool. I waited for my older sister to get out of class , but I didnt had any idea she had different schedule, I waited and waited until bus lady was yelling me and cussed me out for me go the bus. And she literally screaming me infront of bus driver and other kids. Until older girl told her to stop yelling because Im little kid. I was crying non stop and holding the Picohauntus book bag. Now for me watching poor girl forced to dressed up prison clothes because she was so tired and this judge decided not to be empathetic just like bus lady then it made me loose more faith in humanity.
I've never understood why some people think a student falling asleep is disrespectful. Unless they are snoring or "prepared" to fall asleep (think bringing a pillow to class), then they aren't causing a disturbance and should be ignored. If a kid is falling asleep despite being surrounded by other kids and with a teacher talking to them, *they probably REALLY needed to sleep,* and the next course of action would be talking to them after class, *not* to punish them, but to understand *why* they fell asleep and how to prevent it in the future. Punishment or the threat of punishment isn't a healthy tool to change behavior.
I am so heartbroken for the single mother to have to go through that pain as if she or her daughter did anything wrong. Shame on the judge for going through such a power trip.
Nah, Judge needs to be fired, it’s a class trip and he pulls this shit because she was sleeping and than offers to mentor her, that’s just creepy as fuck.
It's not creepy, lol... ur the exact result of modern society. Everyone is scary and creepy to u kids cuz u were raised by weak parents to be a weak person that thinks everyone is a creeper. Do your future children a favor and raise them to not be a perpetual victim, especially under circumstances when they are not involved by any means.
The judge is too used to dealing with criminals he's treating kids as criminals. He seems too power trippy, gna send innocent people to jail cuz he didn't like their attitude
*judge is too used to assuming anyone in “his” courtroom is a criminal. too many judges seem to think they’re sitting on a cloud and not a bench, when they have they have the greatest burden to uphold the principle of /innocent until proven guilty/. and many more than they’d like to admit are innocent /despite/ being found guilty because of their own power trip. no better than an abusive cop.
As a public education major, I am continuously shocked when I hear someone thinking a student being sleepy is an example of bad behavior. Even Alabama where I went to school teaches that sleepy students are victims. ALABAMA. Sure, a few rich kids with happy family homes may pull an allnighter to game and sleep through class the next day, but most kids who can’t stay awake are malnourished and from unstable homes. The last person who needs to be bullied by authority figures. Insane.
That judge who put that kid on blast for falling asleep is why so many people hate the US justice system. So many people in it think everything is black and white, wrong or right, so when anything grey comes along, they don't know what to do, and they make rash decisions. Sometimes their delusions wreck lives, as almost happened with the judge. If he decided to send the tired kid to juvie, that could've drastically messed her up in ways she may not have recovered from. Also, I'm not at all surprised the judge was trying to emulate "Scared Straight". Broken and ineffective criminal justice methods are so rarely captured in all their ugliness and destructiveness, so I commend this judge for demonstrating why the US needs such substantial bottom-up criminal justice reform.
I fell asleep at a workplace and instead of bullying me, I received compassion and found out I had anemia - got on some medications and it was all sorted. No excuses for that judge, it's not hard to have a conversation.
As someone in recovery, at the beginning I wasn’t for anyone really getting jail time for that, but then those texts!? Yeah, that “doctor” needs to lose their license and rot in jail.
I'm also in recovery and I am still very against a dealer going to prison for causing a death just because they sold the drug that killed them... pharmaceutical companies kill people with drugs all the time and they NEVER go to prison look at Purdue Pharma... but in this case it wasn't just a drug dealer these were two doctors using someone to enrich themselves knowing exactly how addicted Perry was and how badly his body was failing. A doctor should be held to a higher standard. And the Ketamine Queen isn't a dealer she's a trafficker and should be charged as such imo
Yeah my thought is that his enablers took advantage of his illness for personal gain. It's a hard juxtaposition but here's how I look at it. If my vice is gambling, I'm going to gamble regardless. If a casino is encouraging me to keep giving them money, even knowing I have nothing, that casino is also bad and making my issue worse
Ah yes, the police who can famously be able to detect when a person is a criminal and not just an innocent person going about their day. Damn, Americans are in good hands. Give me a fucking break.
When I was a teacher, if a student fell asleep in class I’d tell them they can try staying awake in class or they can go to the nurses office to nap. Sleep is a need, just like water, food, and shelter. And you never know what’s going on at home. Only once did a student take me up on the offer and go to the nurse. I later found out that student was homeless.
I read Matthew Perry’s memoir earlier this year and it’s so heartbreaking to see this news come out. He was so vulnerable and had committed his life to helping other addicts get sober. Absolutely horrific.
The way that I laughed out loud at the “they can sniff out someone who’s lying” line. Like tell me you’re trying to seek bs without telling me you’re selling bs 😂
I'm a pharmacy tech & pre-pharmacy student who wrote a 12 page essay on Medicare Part D & the Inflation Reduction Act. The whole fucking MPD/PBM (pharmacy benefit manager) industry is a RACKET. The IRA doesn't do enough. We need widespread negotiation, not picking & choosing which drugs to negotiate. That's simply insufficient. The drugs they are negotiating are specialty drugs that so few people even use that it doesn't do anything for most people. I've had patients cry as they ask how they're supposed to afford their lifesaving medication & a roof over their head or food to eat for the month. It's devastating & heartbreaking & our country can do better. We MUST do better.
Police don't know the difference between an acorn and a gunshot but we are expecting them to know the difference between an individuals reason for wearing a mask...
I will never understand why people think it's disrespectful when someone yawns or even falls asleep in class or at work. How is being physically tired disrespectful? It has nothing to do with you or your boring ass lecture
The judge went on a powertrip... "was I really gonna do that, probably, not, *could I have? Probably so"...* excuse me??! Check yourself, you're a judge and you are on a powertrip... you probably could? Man, you should be facing the other side of the bar yourself...
It's like that law in New Jersey that says you can't wear a bulletproof vest in the commission of a crime. They're already committing the crime, banning an action or clothing while you're doing so isn't going to scare anyone
21:27 Please remember that the Paralympic games are part of the Olympics. The games are not yet over. I'd love to see more acceptance and support of the paralympic competitions, especially as we are discussing how technology impacts both Olympic and paralympic athletes with advantages and disadvantages. If we can acknowledge the importance of technology and restrictions for both types of athletes, we should also celebrate and honor them equally. From a disability community member, I appreciate your content and all you do!
I used to be a APA & often practiced in front of Judge King. None of the us regular attorneys were surprised by his actions. He’s has several run ins with public and attorneys. Judges are testy about the public falling asleep or inappropriately dressed in court. This is not the 1st nor will be the last time this happens. Judge King has been removed from his docket, but it’s unlikely he’ll be removed from the bench. A complaint would need to be filed with appropriate agency. What’s more likely to happen he will be temporarily suspended
The Matthew Perry news showed me there's a oddly large amount of people who think drug dealers shouldn't be held responsible for selling drugs to someone that unfortunately OD's..... For that judge story, if that was my kid I'd definitely pull out the petty card and file every complaint i could against him. Especially if my kid had a sleeping disorder that caused them to fall asleep easily. And then he's has the audacity to not not apologize but instead over a mentor ship?
A stinging reminder that if you're politically, socially, or financially insignificant to those who run things, you're not important enough for anyone to care.
I can definitely tell you from past experience that some of those people who don't want to condemn the drug dealer, are people who also get their drugs from said dealer. And so they really just don't want their supply of drugs messed with. It's stupid to someone not on drugs but I've come across it many times.
Yeah since he was a celebrity his case got more urgency and media around it. But at the end of the day as a celebrity I don’t blame him because he was surrounded by enablers.
I got so angry at that judge story. I'm so tired of this "Tough Love" attitude so many of the black elders have towards the black youth. I've seen how damage it did to my friends around me.
I cannot emphasize this enough, Medicare is NOT everyone. My friend is diabetic. She’s still paying thousands of dollars on insulin and supplies and she works for a major retail pharmacy. Also, as someone who works for that same pharmacy, PBMs are the issue. They’re starting to release commercials because people are going to come for them. Pharmacies are failing because reimbursement is horrendous. They’re actively losing money on selling some of their drugs because the margins are that small. Can’t wait for the fallout with the PBM mafia.

I was leaving a DV situation in grad school and fell asleep in class numerous times. The professor, normally very cold, pulled me aside after class and asked what was going on. I said I was too scared to fall asleep at home. We developed a system where she’d tap me lightly if she noticed I was falling asleep, so I wasn’t embarrassed. I think of her often. I wish the judge had been more like her.
"The judge was trying to teach a lesson of respect"
Bruh, ain't no one respecting him after that. He put a homeless teenager in cuffs because she was sleeping. Absolutely ridiculous
exactly. Perhaps the next time that judge is somewhere out in public where someone has professional power over him they can show him how it feels. Restaurant - We choose not to serve you, Retail - trespass him from the store, Garage - Were too busy to fit you in
If he weren’t a judge, he’d get his ass beaten for going after a kid.
I'm thinking if he had any clue about her situation, he would have went about all of that in a different way. From his POV, must have just seemed like a disrespectful teen. Idk what he would have done to mentor her tho.
As a person who has been to a courtroom(for HS credits), and watched. I can tell you, most of them are boring. Nothing like you see on TV or clips from trials that go on for weeks. Instead they usually bring the person in, say what they are there for, lawyer says they are pleading guilty, and judge sets a court date for sentencing, rinse repeat. Absolutely no objections statements, nothing. So I sat there for my 3 hours and left, very tired... If these kids were on a school trip, tired, fatigued, I probably would of done the same in her shoes.
"Bailiff, that child is evidently exhausted, can you escort her & a chaperone to my chambers so she can take a nap on the sofa or recliner there, while I continue the discussion with the rest of the field-trip group." That's maybe a better way to go, if there's a 'next time'. At least give the kid the benefit of the doubt, that falling asleep might not be a sign of disrespect.. but maybe a sign of sleepiness!
To anybody concerned about the escaped convict in North Carolina, he was apprehended in Charlotte last night.
Awesome
thats too close for comfort but im glad he was found
awesome
That judge: "If she doesn't respect me, then I won't respect her."
The translation: "If she doesn't respect (my authority over her), then I won't respect (her as a person.)
The classic power dynamic.
The United States in microcosm.
This should be the headline!
Couldn't have said it better myself.
So if you were disorderly in court and got punished you think making an excuse makes what you did ok?
There’s a law saying he can put her in jail for falling asleep on a field trip?
“Can determine if they are lying.” Sir, some of these men cannot determine a gun shot from an acorn falling on a car’s hood.
It’s hilarious that this is literal
@@seyikg1072 Both hilarious and utterly mortifying
@@MADEbySOUL 💀😂😂
I thought the same thing when I heard that. Cops are dumb AF.
They do it tautologically! Aka, if they say you are lying, then by definition you are lying, even if you were telling the truth! That's why they are so good at it, 100% accuracy rate!
As a foreigner having always heard that Americans love freedom, your government seems pretty controlling… it’s kind of baffling
shitlibs here only dislike freedom when it applies to the working class. we got hella freedom for cops, corporations, and crooks.
It is a constant struggle. People with power have a bad habit of seeking more power, and the most insidious are those that think they are are righteous.
But with our founding statements including quotes like "Those who would sacrifice freedom for security deserve neither", well, we can still get pretty feisty when it comes to pushing back on government overreach. Though sometimes it takes a few years of court fights to sort out.
If you aren’t here I don’t think you know the half of it. You have governments getting sued and then being the judge and jury presiding over their own case. The ATF is an abomination of an authoritarian organization who shouldn’t exist. The two parties that make up our entire government are more interested in maintaining power than actually doing their job and serving the public like they’re supposed to. Freedom has become something that we define within specific boundaries, but if you start getting too free then the corporations who support the US economy and fund the government have no control to keep you working for cheap so they need to reign you back in. I think a good example of this is Ruby Ridge. Nonviolent family who was armed and just wanted to be left alone ended up having a couple of them murdered by police and the FBI supported the unconstitutional siege on their property. We are more free in some ways, but absolutely enslaved and controlled in others.
I would say that ppl are simply more plugged in to American politics. We're a country of 300 plus mill with a lot to offer and are going to have regulations to match that.
& still leads the world in total number of people incarcerated. This always felt the ultimate irony, USA is the land of the free in theory only.
I genuinely started crying listening to that woman talk about what her daughter was going through.
I was homeless for nearly three weeks when I was 9 years old. The second weekend I didn’t sleep or eat from school lunch Friday to school breakfast Monday. I ate so fast I immediately threw it all back up and cried until I fell asleep on a cot in the nurses office. NINE FUCKING YEARS OLD.
That judge having the balls to show his face in public after torturing that little girl without a shred of remorse is a genuine injustice.
He shouldn’t be a judge at all. The Rhode Island judge has better compassion than this arrogant fool!
🇮🇱
Edit: Yes, I'm a bot. You got me 🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱
I cried too. As a mom I can only imagine how she feels and feeling the humiliation that judge caused her daughter and family
I know what you went through. I was homeless when I was 13. My mother, little brother and I slept in our small 1977 Hatchback Toyota Corolla. So, school meals were what we depended on and sleep was minimal often non-existent because I was scared of being robbed or worse, being taken away. That judge is a bully and deserves to learn what it’s like to be struggling. Shame on him and his superiors that allowed it to happen!
@@albasanchez6014 I’m so sorry y’all went through it too. Makes me so fucking angry when people without a clue open their mouths, because they never say anything good.
The lesson in that court was that people with power will abuse it if you offend them.
and dont underestimate the damage in teaching children that the law is unfair
Right?! I wonder how many ppl are serving unfair time for perceived "attitude" instead of based on the actual alleged crimes. For him to double down and not apologize...it's probably a large amount of ppl. SMH
And after all that offering to mentor her wtf..!
Or that people with power have an ego that matches who might lash out at anyone who might disrespect them
And then, the sheer ARROGANCE to offer MENTORING?
As someone who had undiagnosed narcolepsy for years, falling asleep in front of someone like that power-tripping poor excuse of a judge was my worst nightmare. It’s not disrespectful. It’s a sign of health issues or environmental issues. I’m so enraged that any adult would find it reasonable to punish and humiliate a child for that.
My immediate thought with the judge was "How do you know why she's falling asleep?" People really believe that if someone isn't on the street, they can't possibly be homeless. Homeless people are all around us and it's really gross for a Judge of all people to jump to "scaring her straight". Not to mention that falling asleep isn't disrespectful, it's indicative of a bigger problem.
My thoughts exactly, his judgment is clearly flawed and has no place on the bench. He seemed so drunk on his own authority he can't see anything from an alternate view and then to have the gall to offer to mentor her...man, stfu
Not to mention seeing that mother bawling her eyes out in powerless desperation and condescendingly asking to mentor that girl, which he would probably abuse.
And the fact that she was there on what was supposed to be a fun, educational field trip!!
🇮🇱
Busta Rhymes was performing a concert. He got upset with a crowd member for not standing. Busta started getting angry and used bad language to the seated guy. The guy was paralyzed and thats why he didn't stand. This judge reminds me of Busta Rhymes at that concert.
Some cops can’t tell the difference between a phone and a gun, and we’re expected to believe they can tell the difference between a mask for health reasons vs criminal reasons?
Authoritarianism in action, baby
The difference is "Does this person kiss my ass enough, am I in a good mood, and are they the right skin color?" for like.... 99.99% of cops. Also how anti-mask the cop is. I guarantee you anything more than a baggy blue surgical's going to attract a lot of attention, especially those of us who wear elastomeric half or full face masks for extra protection or just because they're more comfortable/economical.
When you have 2 tenths of a second to decide if what you are seeing is a gun or a phone and you believe it's cut and dry you are a complete moron. Under the best circumstances you and anyone else can and will be fooled. Think before making yourself sound even dumber than you already are.
And some cops think a large pot of boiling water 10 feet away behind a tall counter has the same ability as a gun
@@BreakofDawn omg I saw someone mention the acorn cop, but this is equally as relevant. I still can’t get over the fact that happened.
Any child falling asleep during the day, class or on a field trip... you have to wonder why they are falling asleep. It's not intentional. If you are tired you are tired, it has nothing to do with showing respect, more to do with a person's health. The judge is cold hearted. Instead of being concerned for her health he lashes out at her for being "disrespectful".
As a teacher, I would have gone to jail for contempt before that girl changed into “jail clothes”. Don’t touch my babies! Falling asleep could be due to a medical concern, issues at home like homelessness or working nights. This child was NOT a criminal and falling asleep isn’t against the law! 😡
They aren't your "babies". They are your students and nothing more.
All of this. Even if that kid fell asleep because they stayed up playing video games all night, you aren't disrespecting one of my students that way. It doesn't even look like it was real court but some kind of lecture so judge can't even do that. If a child is falling asleep in your presentation then you are boring and you need to fix that.
Literally, I would have fought before you put my student in HANDCUFFS? Who was chaperoning this trip!
teachers like you are a blessing, thank you so much for caring so deeply for your students ❤
The world needs more teachers like you
“Why do children have distrust in Authority?”
*-proceeds to publicly humiliate and traumatize a child and offer mentoring instead of an apology-*
When I was in high school I began getting very sleepy all the time and legitimately tried my best but I just couldn't stay awake. I was nodding off or sleeping through most of my classes for about 3 days. My English teacher snapped on me in front of the entire class. I felt horrible. Told me I needed to stop "whatever you're up doing all night and get some rest."
One day I realized something was wrong and drove myself from the school to the emergency room. I just left. Didn't tell my teachers or anything. The hospital was close. They called my mom and she called the school after.
I had a blood sugar of almost 900 and was in keto-acidosis. I was diagnosed as a Type 1 diabetic that day.
Nobody should ever, ever shame a child for being sleepy. I don't care when or where they're sleeping. Talk with them in private if you think it's just disrespect and/or bad decisions. There are so many possible reasons. That judge should be ashamed and should face some sort of penalty. What that is, I do not know. But I believe an inquiry at the very least is in order due to his poor judgement as a JUDGE.
That's what I was thinking. That child could very well have had an undiagnosed health issue like diabetes or narcolepsy. Putting a kid in handcuffs isn't going to address the source of the issue.
Might be naïve of me to ask, but did your teacher talk to you after the incident? Apologised?
@@luckylarita1630 She did talk with me after and she apologized. I went back to school about a week later and had to have a meeting with all of my teachers to get the work I needed to get caught up. I was out of school for another week after that.
She was almost in tears apologizing to me. I told her it was okay. I was a pretty good/docile kid so I was just amazed that a teacher would ever apologize to me so I just told her it was all okay because I mainly just felt awkward about it.
I doubt she ever called out a kid in front of the entire class for sleeping again, though.

As a Jewish person I’m so sick of things being called antisemitism that aren’t antisemitism. Maddening.
banning masks when there’s been a increase in monkey pox cases and claiming police are “human lie detectors” and that “they’ll know when it’s for crime and when it’s for medical reasons” is such a strange thing to do especially when police are already feared because of how rough they are
Two years ago you couldn't go to the park without a mask in NY, now they're going to arrest you for having one on? Covid didn't go anywhere, this is just going to be used as another excuse for police to harass people.
And mechanical lie detectors arent even accurate, so a human with implicit biases?? Not a lie detector fs
Such brain-diarrhea💩 could only came from a Trump minion like #MazziPhillips...🙄 ote these grifters out next november!🤗
Yeah, this will stop criminals from wearing disguises and masks.....Phew!!! LOL. There's been literal signs on banks for years stating, no helmets, no masks, etc. LOL. All they're doing is giving police extra powers to harass people, namely the vulnerable groups. Winter is coming, are they going to crime detect every person wearing scarfs around their faces.... LOL. They'll ban sunglasses soon, followed by weaves, wigs and beards.
How rough and how routinely fucking wrong they are
That child is just going to remember "I almost went to jail for sleeping on a class trip."
Not that the girl did anything wrong in this situation, but this is exactly the reason why punishment doesn’t work and positive reinforcement does. Punishment teaches kids that bad behavior that isn’t seen doesn’t get punished, so they’re just taught to hide it better and everyone time they get away with something it reinforces that. Positive reinforcement works because positive behavior has to be seen to be rewarded. If they exhibit bad behavior that doesn’t get seen there’s no benefit to it.
I could go into the fact that “bad behavior” is generally just a child experiencing an emotion they haven’t been taught how to handle, but I could be here all day. 😂
That judge should lose his job
I’ll never forget the teacher that yelled at me for falling asleep in class. I told her I’d been up all night comforting my father, whose baby brother had died of cancer, and she didn’t care. Whatever I slept through that one day made no difference in my life. That teacher who always acted like the kids’ friends treating me that way instead of asking why I had been in the position of comforting my parents and showing some compassion had a lifelong effect.
As a teacher, the first thing I thought about that judge story was that the student probably had a lot going on at home causing them to fall asleep. Sometimes it’s deeper than “disrespect”.
I used to fall asleep in school practically every day due to what the Geneva convention calls war crimes.
sleeping shouldn't ever even be seen as disrespectful, like, its a natural human process. You can't just will yourself to fall asleep without being tired, and especially can't be like "HAHAHA, FUCK THIS GUY, I'M GONNA SLEEP IN HIS COURT ROOM!"
the one thing i've learned as a grown up is that adults that find disrespect in children are assholes pos 99% of the time
@@OnlyForThePriceOf999 I fell asleep during a presentation thing in middle school once because there were like sixty kids crammed into one classroom, the only lights being from the projector, and I was tired. The teachers were acting like I did it on purpose.
I used to fall asleep in class all the time due to being on copious amounts of SSRIs my doctor perscirbed me from being in a mental hospital for my suicide attempts. Plus every Tuesday morning was the worst for me cause I couldn't fall asleep at home cause my father refused to stop yelling at the TV for WWE Monday Night RAW even after I told him I couldn't sleep because of it. (He never stopped so I learned to just stay up until past 10pm after the show ended. I had to be up at 6am.). My teachers always made me stay awake and I hated it. I was going through depression at such a young age mix that in with a narcissistic abusive father who constantly screamed at the TV, me, and my mother, no wonder why I kept falling asleep...
That judge abused his authority because he felt the need to bully a child, never bothering to discover WHY she was falling asleep. It was never about "teaching her a lesson". It was about an adult deciding he wasn't getting the respect he demanded. That poor kid was detained without charges, put on trial, threatened with jail time and will probably never trust the justice system again. "Was I really gonna do that, probably not. Could I have, probably so." This guy thinks falling asleep in his courtroom is a punishable crime. At the very least he needs to be fired and sued.
I'm not 100% sure, but i think this judge has done stuff like this before, like getting mad when and refusing an extension when a plantifs mom asked because plantif had been in a rehab center. At least, that is what i remember all around, which seems like arrogant with an ego and power trip

Mentorship my ass. That guy looks like he has power trip issues and would abuse the kid again. Maybe even have a sexual agenda.
Judges are not saints.
Who the hell thinks somebody is being rebellious by falling asleep? I question his judgment.
Fr he's acting like court rooms aren't designed to make the audience fall asleep. No moving, no talking, no phones, no standing up, no leaving, and the entire room is next to dead silent for several hours. I fell asleep on my court room field trip too in high school, and the teachers/security just nudged me awake a few times because they're not monsters.
Its nothing but a show of his power dynamic.
He loves to show it just like US Police.
He knows regular citizens would'nt stand a chance against him in the court.
Same thing happens in companies to the lower level employees get bullied or even SA'd by their higher level managers just so they can have a ego boost.
Police are absolutely not human lie detectors! I was in an accident and the police accused me of faking my injuries. Why? Because I'm autistic, so my stims and lack of facial movement and monotone voice due to autism were "proof" that I was lying. "If you were telling the truth then you'd be a lot more emotional right now!" Well sorry that I have alexithymia and am unable to emote the way a neurotypical person can. Guess my disability makes me a liar...
As a neurodivergent person, I do not trust people when they say they can detect lies. Some of the mannerisms that come naturally to me are frequently classified as “suspicious” or evidence that someone is trying to hide something. I fidget, I struggle with eye contact, I can’t sit still, I sometimes emote strangely and say things that can sound strange to people who don’t know me and how my mind works. I’m already nervous that my coworkers will misunderstand me. I don’t want to have to worry about cops, too.
It's a scientific fact that people cannot tell the difference between the truth and a lie.
@@palatonian9618yep and because of this, lie detector tests are bogus and the fact that anyone still believes in them is CRAZY to me
I can’t agree more. You can absolutely make an educated guess as to whether someone is lying, but there is NO way to know that you’re right and there’s no way to know if you’re wrong.
Personally, my energy when it comes to cops is this, in case anyone else would like to adopt it:
- I’m white and should use the privilege I am granted by this fact, to waste the HELL out of their time. Make them wait on the warrant, make them feel all disrespected, I don’t care. Spend all their time and money because then they can’t spend that time hurting someone else or being discriminatory towards someone else.
- explicitly state to a cop, security guard, etc, some indication of mental health problems. Be it “I’m having an anxiety attack” or “I am diagnosed x” this puts it on record if they have a body cam or if there are witnesses, that you informed the officer of your condition so they should shift their approach. (Key word being “should”).
- any communication other than asking for a female cop (I’m a woman), telling them you’ll wait on a warrant, and informing them of your condition is unnecessary. (Also providing ID if it is the law in your state). Words past that should be “AM I BEING DETAINED?” and/or, “LAWYER!” Regardless of your ability to afford one. Save your words for an appointed attorney, that’s better than incriminating yourself unintentionally or by miscommunication.
Also bonus: ALWAYS take the breathalyzer if you haven’t been drinking, if you have, maybeeee don’t drive.
Great point, I am an autist and I am really poor at answering questions directly or knowing what's going on in a situation
Lie Detection is a farse, be it with a machine or by optics. I've BPD too and I often Say/react to things in a way that is not reflective of how I feel. I am getting better at controlling it, but sometimes I will get overly upset over something minor, and it will take me 5-10 minutes to convince myself it's not a big deal. I can totally see how someone who doesn't know me would presume I am a psychopath sometimes. Fearing the authority because of your mental health is the last thing someone working on their mental health needs.
I wouldn't trust that Judge around a kid.
His instant reaction to an innocent child falling asleep was that they weren't "showing enough respect"
Nah, respect is earned. Attention is demanded.
Well said.
As an educator who works with college students from all walks of life, I am *appalled* by that judge's rant. As soon as he started lecturing, I said to my TV screen "You have NO IDEA what her home situation is." And then we find out that she and her mom don't even *have* a home. That was absolutely abhorrent behavior. This was a school field trip, not a reality TV show.
Did you? Did you say that to your TV screen?
His excuse that he was trying to "Teach her a scared straight lesson" was a pretext to cover his egotistical rage at feeling disrespected. I think he fully intended to put her in juvy in the moment but realized the optics.

I am from Guatemala, the first ever olympic medal winner from Guatemala is Eric Barrondo. He won silver in racewalking. He had no coaches, trained himself and couldn't even afford proper shoes. In a interview he said that someone once gifted him a pair of proper shoes, but he would only wear them on races because he could not afford to replace them from wear and tear. Now imagine someone like him, what he could have achieved with the proper training, diet, and equipment. Sports have always been unjust, it just seems that now they are a bit more so.
Sad but so true. Your Nationality and passport matters in every sport 😕

The case of the middle class professor who nominated herself and placed her husband on the selection committee for Australian Olympic Breakdancers is a prime example. The really talented group of breakers couldn't afford to travel across the country to try out. It's big in the performance and comedy festivals in the UK. Well off young people able to bank roll a whole show with very little talent and their parents help.

Long time viewer Phil, so know that this is the lightest, friendliest critique.

Thanks for bringing me my news! 🖤🖤🖤
I like this idea. For my own train of thought, clear transitions can be very helpful in my comprehension because I normally listen to the episodes as podcasts while commuting.
As soon as the judge started berating that poor girl for sleeping I thought "maybe she can't sleep at home and she's tired". And then her mom confirmed exactly what I was thinking. That was so embarrassing for that poor girl to have to put up with a judge on a power trip trying to parent her. I was ALWAYS tired as a teen because I worked after school to help my mom pay bills on top of having insomnia and I was treated like a criminal for falling asleep in school even when I had good grades and graduated with extra credits. I don't understand why kids are treated like they're doing something wrong or disrespectful just for being TIRED.
I understand. I fell asleep at school because I have juvenile lupus, and a combination of medical reactions causing insomnia and domestic violence abuse prevented me from sleeping at night.
He could have played a positive role in that girl's life. He missed an opportunity to show mercy and perhaps interest those kids in a career in law enforcement.
We really don’t know what goes on in kids homes. There was this girl in first grade who had urinary incontinence. A lot of kids made fun of her. As I got older I found out she was being AS’d at home. I get sick to my stomach thinking how she must of felt. This judge didn’t know the situation and to offer to coach her !? The ethics here are questionable he’s also an ass🕳️

When I was a kid a teacher got mad that I didn't pay for something that everyone else was paying for, no more than 10 dollars, putting me on blast. I cried from shame. My mom later tore him a new one, telling me later she gave him the money while saying "my kids won't have milk this week." She wasn't exaggerating, we were having money troubles and she was doing her best, which I knew but I was a very reserved child and was caught off guard by the teachers reaction. He gave me the money back the next day, extremely ashamed and apologelic.
If he berated you publicly then he damn well better have apologized publicly.
@@joegei3581when you’re a young child the last thing you often want is to have a spotlight cast upon you.
Best thing he coulda done was offered to apologize in front of the class, which most kids would decline.
I've had a teacher do that to me too. Near the end of the school year he kept taking us on short notice field trips. My mom was jobless and on welfare. Mind you, where I live you can get stuff like field trips for school covered by the state, but you have to place the request several weeks in advance for it to go through in time, which he made impossible by deciding on Monday we were going somewhere on Wednesday. Meaning my mom would have to pre-pay the money. She would be reimbursed eventually, but for the moment, it would be cutting into our already tight grocery budget. So eventually, after multiple of these trips, she had enough and refused to pay, because it was piling up, the reimbursements were taking their sweet time coming in, and we needed groceries. I was even fine staying with another class for the day but he insisted I had to come, so he paid for my bus ticket and museum entry. How nice, right? But then he would not stop hounding me about getting that money back, no matter how often I told him we literally didn't HAVE it. This was about like 8$ and teachers make quite good money where I live. He got in cahoots with my homeroom teacher on the last day to hold my report card hostage and not allow me to leave until my mom came to school with the money. He called her multiple times while I told him to stop because she was in a job interview but I guess he thought I was just making excuses. I eventually told him I didn't care about not getting my report card, I was leaving. He tried to stop me but there wasn't much he could do without crossing the line of legality. My mom got the job and our situation finally improved but she never did give him that money back lol
@joegei3581 In most cases this is the best way to apologize, but if it were me, I wouldn't want anymore public attention brought to my situation.
Your mom is a legend for that. Some people are so ignorant to others’ financial struggles and they need to be reminded. As someone who also grew up poor I salute her 🫡
That judge who humiliated and talked down to a tenage girl is horrible. He needs to resign. He saw a sleeping child and decided to make a mockery of her in front of her classmates. The only lesson he taught and understands is abuse of power. If anyone in the courthouse helped him in that stunt, they need to be tried in court instead of running one.
As someone who would fall asleep on field trips due to an undiagnosed illness I’m so angry 😡 the bus trip, the walking, the change of routine always drained me, that man is a judge, he’s job is to weight up the ‘whys’ and ‘hows’ before passing judgement but some how it never accord to him to wonder or ask why - on a field trip (which are meant to be interesting and different from the boring norm of school at the very least) that a student would be fall asleep.
Not wonder if the student was coming down with the flu, has a medical condition, or didn’t have a stable home because of the economy, dude needs to educate himself, he shouldn’t be offering to mentor, he needs to get *himself* a mentor. Jeez.
Great point.
I'm a teacher and as SOON as they said the girl was falling asleep in the courtroom I was horrified that the judge would treat her like that. It throws up major red flags for me if a child is sleeping in class - it is NEVER their fault (have you ever tried to fall asleep intentionally somewhere uncomfortable while sitting upright?) and is always due to issues at home, or a medical issue e.g. insomnia. What an idiotic judge.
Why does he even hold a position of power and authority in this world? SMH
I'll be honest, I totally did fall asleep in class sitting upright a few times back in high school lol. Granted, we started at 6:30 am and I had about a 50 minute bus ride in the morning before I could drive so I guess I kind of get it.
Exactly. The reality was worse than I thought, I assumed it was a medical issue. What a shit judge.
yeah I knew a teacher who had narcolepsy and sometimes would fall asleep during field trips.Of course as kids we thought it was funny Mr. K was snoring during a high school play. Our other teacher told us why that happened, and it really taught me to be more empathetic.
Not really. I didn’t care for orchestra and every time we went on a trip there I purposely fell asleep in those seats as I’d be bored otherwise. So yes kids can choose to sleep on a trip even if it’s loud and not comfortable.
My first thought of a teen falling asleep in a courtroom was, "Yeah, it's boring. I can't blame you," and then hearing it happened twice, "oh shit was she narcoleptic? Maybe didn't sleep over studying?" I'm not a judge- but neither of my first thoughts were, "OH YOURE SO RUDE AND ENTITLED!!"
The fact its a black judge doing that to a black child on top of it just hurts my heart. And this is a running theme for so many black judges. They want to “prove a point” by being 10x harder on black suspects. Hes the exact type of person that wasnt shit in high school, somehow got his hands on a crumb of power, and decided to make it everyone else’s problem, mixed with all the racial politics that come with that. Its so frustrating
@Runthemjewels this
To be fair I used to fall asleep in school all the time and it was just because I was bored and back when I was a kid I could sleep all day and night it was weird because now as an adult I can barely get 4 hours of sleep
And even ignoring the possible health reasons, there's one big factor: kids and teens need more sleep than adults (teens need 8-10 hours at least according to scientists). But our society pushes kids and teens to a schedule that is completely unsuitable and more fitted to the needs of parents - from school starting extremely early in the morning, to kids/teens being into loads of extra curricular activities that take the time they would have to rest, so it's not surprise that she fell asleep in a boring situation.
I was surprised no racism was mentioned against the judge by the kid's family.
9:23 you DO NOT know what is going on in a child's life. When I was 16 Into was constantly falling asleep. It is not ALWAYS because you ego can't handle all the attention in a room full of teens. My dad was abusive and used sleep deprivation. You know what my teachers did? They didn't punish me. They let me sleep and with time stay after class to make upy work and made signed notes allowing me to go to the library after school to finish my homework and assignments!!! I became a teacher and I learned from mines. I let my students sleep. I don't pop off. Even if they are teens THEY ARE STILL KIDS!!! You sir shouldn't have been in charge of teaching the children about the musical system. You just taught all those impressionable minds that you in fact do have a power thus for can be easily corrupted.
Yes, because if there's any way to prevent a child from growing up to be a criminal it's to show them that Judges don't care about your wellbeing and will treat you like crap regardless. Really intelligent lesson Judge. Sheesh.
That mask law is idiotic. There are actual health reasons to wear a mask if you go to any large event. I work with the elderly and dying, I try to wear a mask whenever I expect to be in a big crowd. Making that illegal literally endangers the lives of my clients!

if the police can sniff out who did and didn't do a crime then why are so many people wrongly jailed? how can you even say that without laughing at how absurd that statement is?
I used to fall asleep in class all the time because I had a horrible home life. Some of my teacher would scare me awake and it was awful.... Everyone staring at you. But then the librarian saved me, I was a student aid for them and she'd let me sleep, she knew something was wrong even though I didn't share all the details.. If a child was able to fall asleep multiple times during a short field trip, something is wrong! It's a cry for help at times! Why do they automatically assume they are being rebellious? This could have been a great opportunity to build rapport and show kindness....... so disappointing...
His attitude about the whole situation leads me to believe he lumps all teens into the same group. It's like he sees them all as future criminals and current troublemakers. For his knee-jerk reaction to be 'I'ma show this punk who's boss', it's wholly unsavory. This incident should be enough to prevent him from presiding over any cases involving minors.
Same here. I fell asleep every day in school because I didn't sleep well at home. I stayed up late every night waiting for my creep step dad to go to bed first. I didn't trust him.
I always fucking hated that. Thankfully i never had one of those horrible teachers.
Im sorry you went through that.
As someone who has two sleep disorders that weren’t diagnosed for about half a decade- fuck that judge.
If someone is sleeping in public, there’s a reason.
i started crying the second i heard about that girl falling asleep in the courtroom. the older you get the more you realize that these teenagers are still KIDS. i remember being exhausted constantly in high school and falling asleep in class all the time no matter how hard i tried. you never know people's home situations or what they're going through, especially teenagers and kids. that girl is so worried about her life already, to then be threatened and humiliated in front of her peers, i cant even begin to describe how angry i am for her. he taught her nothing except that people in power will abuse it any chance they get.
As soon as the kid falling asleep in the courtroom was mentioned, I suspected that she didn’t have adequate/stable housing. I’m all for discipline and expectations about behavior, but that should never harden into a rigid mentality where we fail kids and neglect their needs.
I'm a woman from India and I am utterly terrified that the investigation of the crime that was inflicted onto the doctor will not see a fair investigation or trial. There were some 1000 violent individuals who attacked the protesters in West Bengal and were trying to tamper with evidence. There are also people online making fun of the victim and stating they wish they could have been part of the gang that committed these vile and disgusting acts. I am scared, not just for myself but for my family and friends that might one day come across these people.
I'm always super creeped out by people in positions of power who first bully children with that power, and then "offer to mentor" them after they find out about a difficult home life. The Law and Order episodes write themselves with that shit.
He didn't bully her. He told her not to fall asleep. She told him to basically go fuck himself.
Makes sense. It often goes the opposite way too. There’s a correlation and it definitely seems tied to wanting to control a vulnerable person either by punishment or by “niceness”
That part was creepy as heck.
The judge story made me so sad, but the interview with the mother absolutely broke my heart. That experience was just salt in the wound for her and her daughter. I wish them the best for them in finding a permanent home as soon as possible.
Hopefully this experience taught the judge a valuable experience.
It likely isn't the first time he's heard a story like that but it is also quite cruel to punish someone for something they did without knowing the reason behind it, especially when he knows that he's dealing with troubled adolescents.
I’m hoping the publicity will help them raise money. It’s an unfortunate way to get it, but here’s hoping something good will come out of it all.
Hopefully the judge looses his job. He used his authority to bully. I'm sure it's not the first time. No one is going to be treated fairly in his courtroom with those attitudes.
As a lecturer, you don't know what the circumstances are in a students life that leads one to fall asleep in class. Falling asleep isn't a sign of a student having an attitude, it's a sign they're tired
what??! as a former sleepy teenager struggling with life and school, not ONCE have i seen anyone be like “hehe imma be disrespectful, watch this! Zzzzzz”. your body is struggling to keep up. it’s a cry for help at worst, and at best you’re just having a bad day. the judges attitude is appalling, i wouldn’t trust him to rule over parking tickets
I really felt for that girl. I had a high-school teacher who would make snide remarks about me and another student nodding off in class and how "we should go to bed earlier instead of playing video games". The other student was working two jobs, and I was up most nights due to pain from medical issues. It really annoyed me because despite everything going on, we both had A's, so he obviously wasn't concerned about our education.
I'm a teacher now, and yes, while I will talk with a student I see constantly dozing off, I won't put them on blast. Especially since whenever a student has been disrespectful, they don't do it by sleeping. Sleeping in class 9.5/10 times turns out to be an outside issue like insomnia, new baby, bad work schedule, etc. Even then, I've NEVER felt the urge to embarrass a student. If I need to lecture them, I do it privately.
Teachers like you are appreciated! I've had insomnia my whole life and it really became an issue for schooling in my teens, and the teachers that understood and gave grace are how I got through at all. You never know what someone is going through, talking to them and asking questions in private is what a teacher should do.
Exactly! I slept constantly during college and it wasn't because I was bored, it was because I was struggling badly with depression and anxiety. I was asked to leave class a couple of times and it was really humiliating. Teachers should be mindful of their students if even a little. I wasn't being disrespectful, I was trying my best by attending class while on 4 hrs of sleep :(
Continue to be that great teacher! Those are the ones that we remember for life. I have one teacher that I still stay in touch with and visit occasionally even though I graduated high school 7 years ago. I probably wouldn't have even graduated if it wasn't for her. She always went above and beyond in every manner for her students, and especially for me. Wishing you nothing but the best!
My first thought about that judge story was 'what if that girl doesn't have a good home life?! ' and lo and behold. It's not her family's fault, they're doing the best they can.
When will these conservatives realize that a strong hand isn't what these kids need, and has never been?
I think a strong hand can be important, but it's not a one size fits all. Not every person is the same and young people are just that little adults
@@danzed5051 No kids under the age of eighteen aren't adults. You're wrong
@@danzed5051 You can be firm without heing strong handed. It's not that hard. Being firm would be to expel from the court. You recognize someone's autonomy while setting clear boundaries in your interactions with them. Doing the whatever that was, is to establish, demand, and maintain your power over them, so they can obey you not from alignment but from coercion. And that is not how a child is supposed to grow up.
The judge made up his mind the girl was lazy. If this wasn't a judge but a parent, what effect do you think that has on a child growing up? Rather than being understood and supported for issues, they are instead modeled authoritarianism and is constantly stripped of their identity until what remains is a label of laziness, which isn't even true.
@@maimee1no, what got in her trouble was her attitude. She basically told the judge to go fuck himself.
They’re never going to realize it cuz their logic is, “well I went through it and I turned out alright.” Not even realizing they have deep rooted unaddressed trauma, that is negatively affecting themselves and the people around them
Banning face masks is such a ridiculous overstep
That judge doesn’t realize “scared straight” was a massive failure does he? Troubling to see someone so incompetent and sure of themself WITH POWER. Bullying, power tripping, seems unaware of bad practices, generally ignorant… horrible behaviour from a judge. If only he could reflect on his own behaviour honestly but a homeless girl being sleepy being threatened??? Insane
It wasn't a massive failure, it absolutely works. The problem is, people are who they are. Some are on the fence and some can never be fixed, because they're born that way.
@williameldridge9382 ohh you haven't heard about the child in Canada was raped during a scared striaght. Then they covered it up.
@@williameldridge9382 lol it doesn't absolutely work, all statistics show otherwise. Using "some people are just bad" especially on teenagers who literally have not fully formed personalities and are still developing mentally is ridiculous and factually incorrect. Besides, she didn't need to be scared straight in the first place. They were there for an educational field trip, not a scared straight or troubled youth visit. A normal response to a student falling asleep would be to ask if they're ok and could they please stay awake. She didn't commit a crime.
@@williameldridge9382Tell us you don’t understand human psychology without telling us you don’t understand human psychology
Hearing the phrase "Law enforcement will know the difference between someone wearing a mask for criminal or medical reasons" made me laugh, who are they kidding?
So are people who wear masks for accepted reasons in Nassau County just going to be harassed into proving they need on? How do they possibly go about enforcing that? I know many people who are immunocompromised and must wear masks in public. I would be horrified if they were stopped and questioned by police or anyone else about why they need a mask. That is so violating.
We also need the people in our lives to wear masks in public too, so what are they supposed to do? Am I supposed to get a doctors note that explains I am in contact with them so they can wear a mask? It's absurd and absolutely just so police can harass people.
I was so disgusted by Judge King, I actually fully typed up and sent a letter to the court demanding he be terminated.
Good idea, what is the email address?
Putting that poor girl in a criminal outfit and handcuffs is IMMORAL and DISRESPECTFUL. You don't know what that poor girl is going through to reason she is falling asleep on a FIELD TRIP. Children usually see field trips as fun and exciting you won't normally see a child sleeping during one! She could have had a medical condition, insomnia, be abused at home, living in an unsafe environment, homeless (like the situation ended up being) so this is honestly disgusting they did that. There is a way to educate while not traumatizing kids wtf
that judge was on a power trip. how can you threaten to send a child to jail for not breaking a single law. he needs his license reviewed...
Man, it's been a while since I've shed a tear at one of these stories but seeing that mom cry on TV while talking about her and her kids' living situation just killed me. I hope that judge learns some empathy.
For the anti-mask news, is it just me or does that law sound like a new take on the old "stop and frisk" policy New York city had?
That's EXACTLY what it is.
It's funny how republicans will yap ceaselessly about how laws against criminals (for example, gun laws) don't work because "They're criminals! Why would they care about the law?" until it's laws that fit their little belief system.
History is a circle and the circumference keeps shrinking
It is a new stop & frisk there is literally no difference except they can only go after mask wearers (you know over half the population because we never actually dealt with Covid we flat out gave up)
As soon as you said a kid fell asleep on a school trip, I thought "they have bigger issues at home that mean school is when they get to recooperate."
Most teachers will recognise this issue, but clearly this judge assumes the worst instantly.
9:45 that judges interview dug his grave. He didn't care about the only thing that should matter to him... JUSTICE. He wanted to show his power and didn't care what it meant. He sees himself as Authority and everyone else is his subject.
9:31 absolutely disgusting. As a person with narcolepsy, this is one of my biggest fears. No one should ever get in trouble for falling asleep. If you’re falling asleep in public it’s almost definitely because your body NEEDS sleep. And a lot of the time when the body needs sleep the conscious human brain doesn’t have control over that.
No, she got in trouble because she basically told him to go fuck himself without saying it directly. Her attitude got her where she was, not her falling asleep.
I fell asleep during a wedding and almost fell out of my seat as the bride walked down the aisle…
I also fell asleep in a new hire orientation with the director across the room from me. I never knew if she found out. 🤷♂️
Exactly! And she wasn't a defendant or suing anyone or anything. she's just a kid on a field trip.
I also have narcolepsy and was just about to comment the exact same thing!
my first thought too! im also narcoleptic and have fallen asleep at work, on phone calls (so consistently my friends "tuck me in" over call haha), at BAND REHEARSALS! if i cant fight off a sleep attack two feet from a snare drum, what makes them think id be able to do that literally Anywhere Else? im truly lucky to have the friends i do who are actual Kind People (unlike a certain judge) who keep me from falling over during an attack and who recognize what it really is: my body needing something and providing it in the only way it knows.
9:00 It reminds me when I was in preschool. I waited for my older sister to get out of class , but I didnt had any idea she had different schedule, I waited and waited until bus lady was yelling me and cussed me out for me go the bus. And she literally screaming me infront of bus driver and other kids. Until older girl told her to stop yelling because Im little kid. I was crying non stop and holding the Picohauntus book bag. Now for me watching poor girl forced to dressed up prison clothes because she was so tired and this judge decided not to be empathetic just like bus lady then it made me loose more faith in humanity.
Who tf would take up an offer to be "mentored" by a bully! It's almost insulting. How about apologize...genuinely, instead of this shit! 😥
“How do you know she has a home? How do you know she has a bed?” My heart sank when I heard the mother. The judge should’ve had better judgment.
Great, Matthew Perry's doctors are arrested, now can we get some justice for Prince?!🕊️😿
The judge’s energy has cartman from South Park “respect my authority” vibes
I've never understood why some people think a student falling asleep is disrespectful. Unless they are snoring or "prepared" to fall asleep (think bringing a pillow to class), then they aren't causing a disturbance and should be ignored. If a kid is falling asleep despite being surrounded by other kids and with a teacher talking to them, *they probably REALLY needed to sleep,* and the next course of action would be talking to them after class, *not* to punish them, but to understand *why* they fell asleep and how to prevent it in the future. Punishment or the threat of punishment isn't a healthy tool to change behavior.
Right?! Anyone falling asleep in public should be questioned on if they’re okay or need help with something. 💗
genuinely I cannot imagine willingly falling asleep in a public place
I am so heartbroken for the single mother to have to go through that pain as if she or her daughter did anything wrong. Shame on the judge for going through such a power trip.
Nah, Judge needs to be fired, it’s a class trip and he pulls this shit because she was sleeping and than offers to mentor her, that’s just creepy as fuck.
It's not creepy, lol... ur the exact result of modern society.
Everyone is scary and creepy to u kids cuz u were raised by weak parents to be a weak person that thinks everyone is a creeper.
Do your future children a favor and raise them to not be a perpetual victim, especially under circumstances when they are not involved by any means.
Too bad it seems judges can’t be fired, giving them all the more of a power trip and inability to be held accountable
The judge is too used to dealing with criminals he's treating kids as criminals. He seems too power trippy, gna send innocent people to jail cuz he didn't like their attitude
This.
*judge is too used to assuming anyone in “his” courtroom is a criminal. too many judges seem to think they’re sitting on a cloud and not a bench, when they have they have the greatest burden to uphold the principle of /innocent until proven guilty/. and many more than they’d like to admit are innocent /despite/ being found guilty because of their own power trip. no better than an abusive cop.
As a public education major, I am continuously shocked when I hear someone thinking a student being sleepy is an example of bad behavior. Even Alabama where I went to school teaches that sleepy students are victims. ALABAMA. Sure, a few rich kids with happy family homes may pull an allnighter to game and sleep through class the next day, but most kids who can’t stay awake are malnourished and from unstable homes. The last person who needs to be bullied by authority figures. Insane.
That judge who put that kid on blast for falling asleep is why so many people hate the US justice system.
So many people in it think everything is black and white, wrong or right, so when anything grey comes along, they don't know what to do, and they make rash decisions. Sometimes their delusions wreck lives, as almost happened with the judge. If he decided to send the tired kid to juvie, that could've drastically messed her up in ways she may not have recovered from.
Also, I'm not at all surprised the judge was trying to emulate "Scared Straight". Broken and ineffective criminal justice methods are so rarely captured in all their ugliness and destructiveness, so I commend this judge for demonstrating why the US needs such substantial bottom-up criminal justice reform.
The judge was on such a power trip. What a prick. Maybe he should have asked WHY she was so tired.
I fell asleep at a workplace and instead of bullying me, I received compassion and found out I had anemia - got on some medications and it was all sorted. No excuses for that judge, it's not hard to have a conversation.
As someone in recovery, at the beginning I wasn’t for anyone really getting jail time for that, but then those texts!? Yeah, that “doctor” needs to lose their license and rot in jail.
1000%. same with what’s going on with kanye and his dentist giving him endless amounts of nitrous oxide
I'm also in recovery and I am still very against a dealer going to prison for causing a death just because they sold the drug that killed them... pharmaceutical companies kill people with drugs all the time and they NEVER go to prison look at Purdue Pharma... but in this case it wasn't just a drug dealer these were two doctors using someone to enrich themselves knowing exactly how addicted Perry was and how badly his body was failing. A doctor should be held to a higher standard. And the Ketamine Queen isn't a dealer she's a trafficker and should be charged as such imo
Yeah my thought is that his enablers took advantage of his illness for personal gain. It's a hard juxtaposition but here's how I look at it. If my vice is gambling, I'm going to gamble regardless. If a casino is encouraging me to keep giving them money, even knowing I have nothing, that casino is also bad and making my issue worse
Doctors are supposed to Do No Harm.
@@dismurrart6648 they are drug dealer that how i see them treat them as such, also if he doctor clearly u should be one.
Ah yes, the police who can famously be able to detect when a person is a criminal and not just an innocent person going about their day. Damn, Americans are in good hands. Give me a fucking break.
When I was a teacher, if a student fell asleep in class I’d tell them they can try staying awake in class or they can go to the nurses office to nap. Sleep is a need, just like water, food, and shelter. And you never know what’s going on at home. Only once did a student take me up on the offer and go to the nurse. I later found out that student was homeless.
That dude who thinks they're lie detectors is as delusional as the use of lie detectors to detect lies.
Right?? Even lie detectors can’t do that reliably. That’s why the results aren’t admissible in court.
He’s also got that blonde chick right next to him who defended starving the entire population of Gaza when she went on Piers Morgan.
I think he is getting paid to say lies
I read Matthew Perry’s memoir earlier this year and it’s so heartbreaking to see this news come out. He was so vulnerable and had committed his life to helping other addicts get sober. Absolutely horrific.
The way that I laughed out loud at the “they can sniff out someone who’s lying” line. Like tell me you’re trying to seek bs without telling me you’re selling bs 😂
I'm a pharmacy tech & pre-pharmacy student who wrote a 12 page essay on Medicare Part D & the Inflation Reduction Act. The whole fucking MPD/PBM (pharmacy benefit manager) industry is a RACKET. The IRA doesn't do enough. We need widespread negotiation, not picking & choosing which drugs to negotiate. That's simply insufficient. The drugs they are negotiating are specialty drugs that so few people even use that it doesn't do anything for most people. I've had patients cry as they ask how they're supposed to afford their lifesaving medication & a roof over their head or food to eat for the month. It's devastating & heartbreaking & our country can do better. We MUST do better.
Police don't know the difference between an acorn and a gunshot but we are expecting them to know the difference between an individuals reason for wearing a mask...
I will never understand why people think it's disrespectful when someone yawns or even falls asleep in class or at work. How is being physically tired disrespectful? It has nothing to do with you or your boring ass lecture
The judge went on a powertrip... "was I really gonna do that, probably, not, *could I have? Probably so"...* excuse me??! Check yourself, you're a judge and you are on a powertrip... you probably could? Man, you should be facing the other side of the bar yourself...
18:19 I dont think that people wearing masks to commit crimes arent worried about committing another crime by wearing a mask lol.
It's like that law in New Jersey that says you can't wear a bulletproof vest in the commission of a crime. They're already committing the crime, banning an action or clothing while you're doing so isn't going to scare anyone
21:27 Please remember that the Paralympic games are part of the Olympics. The games are not yet over. I'd love to see more acceptance and support of the paralympic competitions, especially as we are discussing how technology impacts both Olympic and paralympic athletes with advantages and disadvantages. If we can acknowledge the importance of technology and restrictions for both types of athletes, we should also celebrate and honor them equally. From a disability community member, I appreciate your content and all you do!
I used to be a APA & often practiced in front of Judge King. None of the us regular attorneys were surprised by his actions. He’s has several run ins with public and attorneys.
Judges are testy about the public falling asleep or inappropriately dressed in court. This is not the 1st nor will be the last time this happens.
Judge King has been removed from his docket, but it’s unlikely he’ll be removed from the bench. A complaint would need to be filed with appropriate agency. What’s more likely to happen he will be temporarily suspended
So he has a history of these attitudes. Not surprised. He needs to be fired.
The Matthew Perry news showed me there's a oddly large amount of people who think drug dealers shouldn't be held responsible for selling drugs to someone that unfortunately OD's.....
For that judge story, if that was my kid I'd definitely pull out the petty card and file every complaint i could against him. Especially if my kid had a sleeping disorder that caused them to fall asleep easily. And then he's has the audacity to not not apologize but instead over a mentor ship?
Lost my brother to an overdose. It was hard seeing the guy who sold to him. He got his karma tho and he’s finally in jail for a very very long time.
@@coll4455I'm sorry for your loss, but I'm glad he got justice.
A stinging reminder that if you're politically, socially, or financially insignificant to those who run things, you're not important enough for anyone to care.
I can definitely tell you from past experience that some of those people who don't want to condemn the drug dealer, are people who also get their drugs from said dealer. And so they really just don't want their supply of drugs messed with. It's stupid to someone not on drugs but I've come across it many times.
Yeah since he was a celebrity his case got more urgency and media around it. But at the end of the day as a celebrity I don’t blame him because he was surrounded by enablers.
hold on, spray on shoes? everyone get your umbrellas ready, its about to rain meatballs
I’m so ready for the weather to be Cloudy with a Chance of meatballs 😅
the judge didnt "scare her straight" instead he just destroyed any faith she has in authority figures
I got so angry at that judge story. I'm so tired of this "Tough Love" attitude so many of the black elders have towards the black youth. I've seen how damage it did to my friends around me.
I cannot emphasize this enough, Medicare is NOT everyone. My friend is diabetic. She’s still paying thousands of dollars on insulin and supplies and she works for a major retail pharmacy. Also, as someone who works for that same pharmacy, PBMs are the issue. They’re starting to release commercials because people are going to come for them. Pharmacies are failing because reimbursement is horrendous. They’re actively losing money on selling some of their drugs because the margins are that small. Can’t wait for the fallout with the PBM mafia.
PBM?
That judge should not be in any position of power, "could I have, probably" dude they were there on a FIELD TRIP wtf
