In his courtroom, on the bench, he IS king. That's why the bench is elevated above everyone else in the room also. And frankly, if you're in front of him, it's probably because you fucked up in some way. I hear you regarding having to genuflect in front of another human being, but her OBVIOUS disrespect for both the judge and the situation warranted the punishment. She probably won't end up getting punished too severely for possession of Xanax, but she should have to sell her jewelry, at least do those 30 days. Like most bubbleheads, the lesson probably won't stick, but the judge should hit her as hard as the law allows. Dudes don't get cut slack.
