Do you think we need to start a new thread and call it: FREE PATRICKBABOON?

Or better yet, start a picket line today at Honolulu Zoo.

"Free Patrick the Baboon", along with some Joe-shmo's face on it would be a classic T-Shirt design. lol

Just kidding. You know we wish you all the best.

Maybe we need to call PETA (People for Ethical Treatment of Animals)?
Hey, Pam Anderson is their spokeperson. We could get her to fly over here to help the cause.
She could stay at my house.
No charge.

Case-follow up


My case was dismissed!!!!

The the girl responsible for this mess had her trail the day before mine and already heard the story. I pleaded "guilty with explaination" so that he could hear my side and it actually worked out.

He was about to give me my sentence/fine but he asked "wait wait wait.. what was the name of the girl?" "ohhh she was here yesterday"

He heard how I just wanted to get her home and be safe so he dismissed my case. No criminal record and no fine (thank god), so my chances of wanting to becoming a Doctor has not been disrupted.


Thank you guys for all the help and tips. It really gave me confidence to face the judge and what to say.



oh man and that shirt design. HAHAH so funny. Thanks for the support guys. Thats hawaii for ya. Much aloha.

CONGRATULATIONS! JUSTICE AND COMMON SENSE PREVAILED!

It parallels my traffic case over 20 years ago. I sold a car to my friend, who then got a ticket within a few days for making a right turn without coming to a complete stop. He argued with the cop and was then cited for several other tickets, including driving with an expired license.

We hadn't yet transferred the title (I was out of town) and I received a ticket by mail for "allowing an unlicensed driver operate my vehicle." What a Mickey Mouse citation!

I was prepared to argue that since my friend had gone to court two weeks prior and the judge didmissed all the citations except for the original one for the illegal turn, there was no way for me to be guilty. It was unnecessary as the judge threw the case out immediately after the prosecutor questioned the cop. I didn't even get to ask one question on cross-examination!

Did that girl get off?

You pleaded GUILTY? Wow. I never thought that would get you off the hook. But hey, it worked. Right on! If you had been charged and sentenced, that would have been disturbing. Good call by the judge.

Goes to show, honesty and good character prevails in life, and in the court of law.

Glad you like the T-shirt design. Now that you're FREE, I might just print one (using an ink jet transfer sheet) just for kicks. If you see someone on the street wearing that, it's me.

Yeah, I thought it was "no contest with explanation". I guess when the judge heard "with explanation" he may have took it that way.

Whatever, it WORKED! That's what counts.

CONGRATULATIONS!

Glad to hear that truth prevailed, and practicality was applied. But, a bit disappointed that we won't be getting NEW T-SHIRTS!

You can't be a doctor if you have paid a fine???
