Defendant sentenced to 558 days in jail after telling judge to ‘kiss my a**‘

A foul-mouthed defendant has been put in jail for over a year after he told a Michigan, USA judge to “kiss my a–” in an expletive-laced outburst in court, wild video shows.

Darrell Jarrell appeared before Washtenaw County Judge Cedric Simpson on Wednesday, August 7 for a simple misdemeanour trespassing charge but as the judge was about to adjourn, he decided to sound off.

“I’m tired of this state. I’m ready to leave this state as soon as possible,” Jarrell said.

“It’s trespassing. I could technically leave, and you guys could issue a warrant and as long as I don’t return, you can just kiss my ass,” he ranted, video shows.

Simpson did not appreciate the swearing.

“You know what? No, no no. I’m gonna tell you what –” he started.

“F–k you!” Jarrell interrupted.

“That’s contempt. That’s 93 (day misdemeanour),” Simpson shot back.

But Jarell again said “F–k you,” to which Simpson ordered he be slapped with another 93 days.

As the bailiff escorted Jarell out of the courtroom, he continued hurling profanities at the judge six times, nabbing a total of 558 days behind bars.

“That’s six 93s, consecutive,” Simpson told the court.

The issue reportedly stemmed from Jarell being unhappy about his court date but when Simpson attempted to explain that his attorneys had been unable to get in contact with him, causing the delay, he became upset, Fox 2 Detroit reported.

The judge quickly moved on to the next case for defendant Keith Jenkins, whose jaw dropped to the floor in shock during Jarell’s arrogant misbehaviour as he waited his turn on a Zoom call, video shows.

Jenkins remained speechless as Simpson introduced his case.

“How are you doing your honour? How are you doing, sir?” Jenkins, chuckling, politely asked.

“I’m doing great!” Simpson responded with a laugh and told Jenkins he was unbothered by Jarell’s conduct.
