Laura McNish And Marshall County Courthouse No Shows

Hey Laura, when you have a defendant who has been summoned to court and is a no-show, you will generally not find him hanging about in the hallway of the courthouse. And the young man you wanted to detain was not the defendant, either. You owe him an apology for your dumbass mistake, and you owe his mother an apology for your filthy language. Once upon a time, obscene words and an unkempt appearance on the part of an officer of the court were both considered contempt of court. It appears that in Marshall County, Kansas, the prosecutor is permitted the liberty of using foul language in the courtroom.  A bit similar to your son and his ongoing liberty to vandalize and destroy the property of others with no consequences, while those who are not so well connected do not enjoy the same rights to commit crimes, isn't it? You and your family have set a terrible example for the young people in Marshall County, Kansas, Laura. Your decorum and lack of manners is unbecoming to an officer of the court. If you insist upon dressing like a slob and using filthy language in court, the least you could do is impose the same laws on your children that govern the rest of the state.
