- 0:14Speaker 2: to back, go to Judge Kin of King. Okay again now,
- 0:18Speaker 2: yesterday I gave Judge King of King donkey of the
- 0:20Speaker 2: day because there was a young sixteen year old girl
- 0:22Speaker 2: who was on a field trip in his courtroom and
- 0:24Speaker 2: she kept falling asleep. So because she kept falling asleep
- 0:28Speaker 2: on a field trip, this fool Judge King of King
- 0:31Speaker 2: ordered her to wear jail clothes and handcuffs for no
- 0:35Speaker 2: reason at all.
- 0:36Speaker 1: Okay, have we played the original news report for maybe
- 0:38Speaker 1: S seven New York. Please, one day.
- 0:40Speaker 3: You'll learn about my courtroom.
- 0:41Speaker 1: Is that I'm not I'm not gonna be played with.
- 0:44Speaker 4: What started out as an informational field trip with the
- 0:47Speaker 4: greeting of Detroit Nonprofit Tuesday to the thirty six District
- 0:51Speaker 4: Court in front of Judge King quickly turned into Judge
- 0:54Speaker 4: King getting visibly agitated over a sleeping student in his courtroom.
- 1:00Speaker 1: Court from home more time and putting me in the
- 1:01Speaker 1: back instead.
- 1:02Speaker 4: Judge King had her removed from the courtroom, but he
- 1:05Speaker 4: told me that didn't fix her quote attitude, and that's
- 1:08Speaker 4: when he pulled out the jail uniform and handcuffs. King
- 1:12Speaker 4: says he was trying to teach the teenager a lesson
- 1:15Speaker 4: on behavior and respect in court.
- 1:17Speaker 1: I haven't been disrespected like that in a very long time, hope.
- 1:21Speaker 4: He then threatened the girl with jail time.
- 1:25Speaker 1: While you're sitting in a juvenile attention to was I
- 1:28Speaker 1: really gonna do that? Probably not? Could I have? Probably so?
- 1:31Speaker 2: Legendary sucker status, Judge Kenneth King, fragile ego disrespected.
- 1:36Speaker 1: You got disrespected because she was tired? What you mad for?
- 1:39Speaker 1: Leed would love not fearful?
- 1:41Speaker 2: Yesterday I said, this man showed no empathy for this
- 1:43Speaker 2: sixteen year old young lady. If she kept falling asleep
- 1:45Speaker 2: in court, clearly something is wrong. Instead of jumping to
- 1:48Speaker 2: she's not respecting me and she needs to know this
- 1:51Speaker 2: is nothing to play with, This is not a joke.
- 1:53Speaker 2: Instead of jumping to all that, how about find out
- 1:56Speaker 2: what's wrong? Showed some compassion, some concern, and I said
- 1:59Speaker 2: yesterday that we don't don't know what this young lady
- 2:01Speaker 2: is dealing with. The example I gave was she might
- 2:03Speaker 2: be the oldest sibling who had to stay up all
- 2:05Speaker 2: night watching her younger siblings because her mom, who was
- 2:07Speaker 2: a single parent, had to work all night.
- 2:09Speaker 1: That's the example I gave.
- 2:11Speaker 2: Well guess what her mother, Littory Till drop on the
- 2:14Speaker 2: clues bonds for Lotory Tale, who was extremely distraught and
- 2:18Speaker 2: rightfully so. She gave a statement to ABC seven and
- 2:21Speaker 2: spoke to why her daughter kept falling falling asleep in court.
- 2:24Speaker 2: Let's listen.
- 2:25Speaker 4: That mom says she was horrified to see her daughter
- 2:28Speaker 4: in handcuffs and says Judge King didn't have the full story.
- 2:32Speaker 1: Would you want someone to treat your child like that?
- 2:34Speaker 5: Would you even treat your child like that if he
- 2:36Speaker 5: fell asleep in the courtroom.
- 2:38Speaker 4: Littoria Hill is a single mother of two children, including
- 2:41Speaker 4: her oldest daughter, Eva Goodman. She signed her up for
- 2:44Speaker 4: a summer program with the Greening of Detroit nonprofit to
- 2:47Speaker 4: keep her busy. What was supposed to be an educational
- 2:50Speaker 4: field trip to thirty six District Court Tuesday turned into
- 2:54Speaker 4: a traumatizing experience for both of them. Judge Kenneth King,
- 2:59Speaker 4: not liking Eva's attitude and seeing her falling asleep, placing
- 3:02Speaker 4: her in handcuffs and a jail uniform. Victoria says Eva
- 3:06Speaker 4: was falling asleep because the family does not have a
- 3:09Speaker 4: permanent residence at the moment. They're just trying to make
- 3:12Speaker 4: ends meet.
- 3:13Speaker 1: I'm a single mother.
- 3:14Speaker 5: I'm trying my best. So the fact that he was
- 3:18Speaker 5: talking about you go home and get in your bed,
- 3:21Speaker 5: how do you know my baby got a home. How
- 3:24Speaker 5: do you know my baby got a bed, her own
- 3:26Speaker 5: bed that she can sleep bed. She don't have that
- 3:28Speaker 5: right now.
- 3:29Speaker 1: Line, Judge Kine King up for the fade man. Okay.
- 3:32Speaker 2: If it's one thing people in this country going to do,
- 3:35Speaker 2: it's criminalize poverty in blackness.
- 3:37Speaker 1: All right.
- 3:37Speaker 2: Single mother didn't have a place to stay, and mother
- 3:39Speaker 2: doing her best, trying to do her best for her daughter.
- 3:41Speaker 2: That's why this situation pisses me off, because Judge King
- 3:44Speaker 2: of King is black.
- 3:44Speaker 1: Okay, this young girl is black.
- 3:46Speaker 2: How you don't see your daughter in this young girl,
- 3:48Speaker 2: your niece, your little sister. I just don't understand how
- 3:50Speaker 2: humans don't recognize the humanity in other people.
- 3:53Speaker 1: Okay.
- 3:53Speaker 2: As soon as I heard this story, I said to myself,
- 3:55Speaker 2: there's no way in hell that young girl was falling
- 3:57Speaker 2: asleep over and over for no reason. Then this judge
- 4:00Speaker 2: the nerve to say he wants to mentor the young girl,
- 4:02Speaker 2: and he reached out to the family. Nah, broh, Like
- 4:05Speaker 2: I said yesterday, why would she want you as a
- 4:07Speaker 2: mentor when you have already shown you don't care about
- 4:10Speaker 2: what she may be going through?
- 4:12Speaker 1: Now. I also said.
- 4:13Speaker 2: Yesterday that this should be consequences, the repercussions for the trauma.
- 4:16Speaker 2: Judge Kenneth King called this young lady. I don't know,
- 4:18Speaker 2: you know what that would look like. You know, I
- 4:21Speaker 2: don't know if he would be suspended without pay, removed
- 4:23Speaker 2: from the bench. I don't know what discipline would look
- 4:25Speaker 2: like in this situation. I actually want the young lady's
- 4:27Speaker 2: family to suit. They should be compensated. Okay, Judge Kennop
- 4:30Speaker 2: King should be disciplined and this young lady should be compensated.
- 4:34Speaker 1: Well, one of those things has happened.
- 4:35Speaker 2: Judge Kinol King has been removed from the bench. Let's
- 4:37Speaker 2: go back to ABC seven for the report.
- 4:39Speaker 3: Please we begin tonight with the Detroit judge off the
- 4:42Speaker 3: bench after sparking outrage across the country.
- 4:46Speaker 6: Seven News Detroit broke that story that led to the
- 4:48Speaker 6: removal of Judge Kenneth King, the team he punished for
- 4:51Speaker 6: falling asleep in his courtroom during a field trip ended
- 4:54Speaker 6: up in handcuffs and jail clothes.
- 4:56Speaker 3: Well, tonight, her mom is speaking out about the action
- 4:59Speaker 3: taken against the judge and the impact of all this
- 5:01Speaker 3: on her daughter.
- 5:02Speaker 4: So now Judge King is temporarily removed from the docket,
- 5:06Speaker 4: and that teenager's mom says it's the first step in
- 5:09Speaker 4: their own sense of justice.
- 5:11Speaker 5: Don't play with an upset mother because you told my
- 5:14Speaker 5: daughter don't play with you in your courtroom, and so
- 5:17Speaker 5: you can't play with the citizens of Detroit and an
- 5:20Speaker 5: upset mother.
- 5:21Speaker 4: Detroit police also do confirm that Judge King has been
- 5:24Speaker 4: receiving death threats and they are investigating in Detroit. I'm
- 5:28Speaker 4: Rudelsnaida seven News, Detroit.
- 5:30Speaker 1: Man dropping the clues bombs for that man being removed.
- 5:34Speaker 1: They're good they might have a case. Then they definitely
- 5:37Speaker 1: got a case.
- 5:39Speaker 5: What is it?
- 5:39Speaker 1: Mental distress or emotional distress stress? Yes, he needs to
- 5:43Speaker 1: be removed.
- 5:44Speaker 2: Okay, if your ego is that fragile at a young
- 5:46Speaker 2: woman falling asleep in your courtroom on a field trip
- 5:49Speaker 2: causes you to put her in handcuffs and jail clothes,
- 5:52Speaker 2: and you.
- 5:52Speaker 1: Don't need to be a judge.
- 5:53Speaker 2: I also don't understand how he was able to do
- 5:55Speaker 2: that when this young lady didn't even commit.
- 5:57Speaker 1: Any kind of crime. He had the nerve to say
- 6:00Speaker 1: I wanted.
- 6:00Speaker 2: I wanted just to look and feel very real to her,
- 6:03Speaker 2: even though there's probably no real chance of me getting
- 6:06Speaker 2: no real chance of me putting her in jail. Okay,
- 6:10Speaker 2: Judge Kneth King will continue to get paid while he
- 6:13Speaker 2: is off the bench. I don't think he should get paid.
- 6:15Speaker 2: I think that he should be removed without pay, because
- 6:17Speaker 2: I want this removal from the bench to feel very
- 6:19Speaker 2: real to him, even though there's probably no real chance
- 6:21Speaker 2: in him getting fired. Listen, the moral of the story
- 6:24Speaker 2: is empathy is the most essential quality of civilization. And
- 6:29Speaker 2: Judge kinof King, you are moving quite uncivilized. Please give
- 6:33Speaker 2: Judge Keneth King the biggest he haul again, give him
- 6:39Speaker 2: the biggest.
