honestly, that seemed like he wanted to set an example of it.
plus, as far as I know, the court is a place where you're supposed to have at the very least a modicum of respect. something that I felt she was lacking on every image of that.

Yeah, but i'm suggesting her attitude is a result of the entire thing being ridiculous. If she was up for murder or grand theft you can be sure she wouldn't be acting like that.
And what's up the judges interest in the jewelry she owns? He seems just as out of it as she does.

We can guess.
Most likely reason i can think of, is some of her jewelry was put in storage when she was taken into custody, and that's why it came up. But it does look pretty random out of context.

I can understand the judge.
That girl was charged for narcotics possession /trade. She then bragged about how expensive her jewelry was- indicating to the judge that she was making a lot of money with those drugs.
After hearing about the 5000 $ charge she just laughed and said some light hearted "Adios"- obviously this girl was expecting a much harsher fine and thought that those 5000 were just small change for her, she was signaling the entire time "F*ck off, old man, I am making so much money with drugs, I don't care for your pathetic fines."

And she's already a citizen, so not so easy to enslave unless she does break a law. Poor young female? Not a full citizen; Female privilege was limited, and protection, then as now, goes to them as can hire an advocate. After back-talking to a Magistrate, she'd have been in deep doo-doo - they had a LOT of clout.
@ Unsuccessful At Everything: Correct. The Judge always get the last word. Unless he's completely out of line, in which case, another judge gets the last word. this judge? Needlessly harsh, and probably just set the grounds for a successful appeal or dropping of all charges, but she's still going to do the contempt time.
As for the jewlry, I suspect he was trying to set her up to let him allow her to post the bling as her bond, leading to her immediate release from custody. Whcih she seemed too dim to understand. Hence his irritation. Had she said, "Why yes, Your Honor, it is quite valuable, in the range of thousands of dollars! He might well have said. "Fine. The Jewelry is impounded as your bond. Released."
Guess we'll never know, though.
Tell someone you love them today, because life is short. But scream it at them in Esperanto, because life is also terrifying and confusing.

I guess very few actually really respects them, they just "play along". Not playing along is pretty dumb though, as shown in this video.
Busting people for drug possession is also pretty ******* dumb, makes it kinda hard to respect the system in the first place. |

Back then they had the sense to only punish actual crimes like stealing or murder. This girl was caught with a small amount of pills that she didn't have a subscription for.  If you somehow resurrected the most hardcore Roman judge there ever was, he'd probably be giggling his ass off at the situation, too.
Roman times, that would be witchcraft wouldn't it?

They used to throw Christians to the lions, and all kinds of awful things. I know the story is they eventually gave in and accepted Christianity, but if you want to know the truth that's actually their replacement. They erased whatever beliefs those original Christians had by replacing it with their own beliefs.
The Romans Worshiped the sun and the stars, and the alleged life of Christ in the bible is an allegory for the sun traveling through the different astrological signs, until it dies on the Southern Cross, then is reborn for the next year. All the important dates of modern Christianity line up perfectly with different sun related astronomical events which the biblical life of Jesus is supposed to symbolize.
But i've said too much.
