Case #23 re The People vs the D.A. #1 (ya gots ta articulate cho sef)

Case #23 re The People vs the D.A. #1 (ya gots ta articulate cho sef)

     Judge Mountain was hearing a rape case.  The Judge and victim were Black, the District Attorney was white.  The D.A. was questioning the victim, trying to establish the elements of the crime of rape.   Judge Mountain listened, with the right right side of his face propped against the palm of his right hand, and his left arm sprawled across his desk, tapping his gavel handle with his index finger.

“Miss Johnson, did the Defendant penetrate your vagina with his penis?”, the D.A. asked.
The victim's mouth dropped open slightly and she stared at the D.A. in silence for a couple of seconds, as if he were an alien life form,
“The Deewhaaat?”, she replied.
“Did the Defendant penetrate your vagina with his penis?”, the D.A. repeated, slowly enunciating his syllables.
(The judge slowly closed his eyes and exhaled)
the victim hesitated again, before replying,
“...Pene…whaaat?
The D.A. repeated his question.  This time the D.A. slowly enunciated each syllable AND spaced the words out slightly.
“Did the Defendant penetrate your vagina with his penis?”
(The judge slowly shook his head slightly)
“... My ... my vawhaaat?
“Did the Defendant penetrate your vagina with his penis?”
(The judge looked up and rolled his eyes)
“...Huh?  ... His peanuts?  Wa choo talkin' 'bout his peanuts fo'?”

     Judge Mountain leaned forward and interrupted the questioning,
“Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait!”, the Judge rasped out, looking down and shaking his head in exasperation, before looking up at the D.A. and asking,
“Mistuh Distuct Attunee, do you mind if I rephrase the question fo' the guhl in orda ta move this heah heeun along?”
“Uhhh, why no your Honor.”, replied the surprised, but relieved D.A.
His Honor turned to the girl.
'Young lady, what da Man...", the judge turned and pointed at the D.A.,
“...,dat man right dare…”, the judge turned back to the girl, “…, is trying to ax you is,…” The Judge then pointed at the Defendant,
“... did dat man, dat man right over dare, in the orange jumpsuit, take and stick his dick in yo pussy?", The judge turned back to face the girl,
"Dat’s all da Man is trying to ax you.”, The judge leaned forward, crossed his hands on his desk and raised an eyebrow in expectation,
“Ohhhhh….”, the girl said slowly in understanding,
“Yeeeeah, he did that.  He did that to me.  Nasty ass muthafucka!”, the girl answered, staring directly at the defendant.
Judge Mountain leaned back, spun his chair to face the D.A. and scoffed,
“There!  Now why couldn’t you jes' ask the girl like that?  Instead of all that fooforall about penetrating her vagina with a penis?”
“Well your Honor, I guess I’m just not as articulate as you are Sir.”, the D.A. confessed.

Case #11- The LASD vs L.A.P.D. (playing cops and cops)

     In September 1987, the Carson patrol area known as, "Tortilla Flats", was suffering a rash of burglaries.  To combat this, Deputy Ray Gayton-Jacob and Al Harris, who were training officers at the time, came up with a burglary suppression plan.  On, about, Wednesday, September 14, 1987, Ray and his trainee would be dressed in full uniform, but in an unmarked, Chevy Malibu, detective car.  They would cruise the Tortilla Flats neighborhood looking for burglars.  Al and his trainee, would remain outside of the neighborhood in a regular patrol car.  If Ray and his partner saw something suspicious, they would keep an eye on it and call in Al and his trainee to check it out.      Things were quiet, until about 1:00 A.M..  Ray, and his trainee, had just finished jamming a hype at Torrance Boulevard and New Hampshire Avenue and had resumed their patrol.  Ray spotted a black and white patrol car coming slowly their way. ...

The French Toast Connection

  The French Toast Connection        So, when we first got married, Michelle couldn't cook.  As a bachelor, I had survived on oatmeal, eggs, sandwiches, spaghetti, salad and canned soup and that was good enough for me. Michelle's cooking skills were on par with mine, except my eggs, sandwiches, spaghetti and salads were better. Michelle, however, wanted to improve her cooking skills so, every couple of months, she would try a new recipe on us. Sometimes it was good, sometimes it was okay, sometimes it didn't turn out so well.      One morning, when Logan was about three years old and Conner was about six, Michelle decided to give french toast a go for the first time. I like french toast, but the boys had never had it.  Michelle called us, saying breakfast was about ready.  We all sat down in our usual places.  Michelle next to me and the boys across from us.  Michelle put a slice of french toast on each of our plate...

Case #46 - re The People vs Jeff Fleming again (Is someone missing a fat white guy?)

Case #46 - re The People vs Jeff Fleming again (Is someone missing a fat white guy?)      A bunch of us were helping Jeff and the rest of the Carson Narco crew out on a warrant service. Entry had been made and everything was Code-4, or so we thought. I was standing on the front porch of the target location when a neighbor lady came running up to me all out of breath, “Deputy! Deputy!” “Yes Ma’am?” “One of the people you’re looking for ran out the back!” “What!”, I said. I was surprised, because the house had been surrounded when entry was made and nobody reported seeing anyone run out. “Are you sure?” “Yes! He jumped the wall into my backyard and my rottweiler went after him.”      I got on the radio and advised units that we had an outstanding suspect. At this moment Jeff Fleming came walking out of the house and stood by us. he was sweating and somewhat out of breath. That didn't really surprise me. At the time, Jeff was frickin massive and jus...
