Giving Her a Hand

I saw a trial of a lady who was there for a hit and run and for being under the influence. The judge assigned a lawyer for her since she was so shaken up that she’d quit her job and couldn’t afford to pay a lawyer out of pocket.
The judge asked the prosecuting attorney for details on the case, and the defendant actually said out loud to the whole room: “You mean the car I hit while I was intoxicated?” The judge stopped her.
He took his glasses off and told her, “Everything is recorded in this courtroom. I told you not to talk to anyone about your case except the attorney that I assigned for you.” You could tell he was ready to walk out of the room with the level of stupidity this lady showed.
