The Bizarre Case

Of Denver Fenton and The Bryant Durham

40
The Bizarre Case

On June 17th a prisoner of the state of Georgia, Denver Allen Fenton -accused of murdering another cell mate in 2015- engaged in a heated argument with Superior Court Judge Bryant Durham Jr. when he appeared before the judge. The meeting was held over the possibility of having a different legal representative assigned to Allen’s case due to alleged sexual misconduct on the part of the lawyer. The result was an intense exchange between the two that resulted in one of the most bizarre court transcripts ever made. Reader warning that the following contains many expletives and other potentially unsettling elements.

The entire incident began when Allen requested a new lawyer stating his current attorney was attempting to blackmail him into performing fellatio on him. The judge attempted to refute the defendant's claims and the two began arguing over if Allen was allowed to have a different lawyer. While the defendant attacked the validity of his lawyer, the judge challenged the claim and the two began to argue over paperwork and information surrounding the case and especially the misconduct of Allen's lawyer.



The pair then began to bicker over the nature of courtroom and legal proceedings eventually resulting in an angry out lash. Allen then begins descending into condescending and rude remarks against the judge who in defiance of professionalism in a courtroom setting, began to also sling remarks back against the defendant.


At several points, the judge made scathing comments to Allen including telling him that “(he) looks like a queer,” and asking if he liked “butt boys,” At one point, during the inevitable part of the conversation that should be about penises, the judge challenged Allen to begin masturbating in the courtroom and asking how many hands he needed after Allen told him to take off the handcuffs so he could.


Allen then verbally attacked the judge with several zingers of his own accusing the judge of being a “fuckman", and a “horse-ass cracka.” Both individuals eventually became so angry that their ability to insult each other crumbled away in some truly strange insults as Allen threatened to kill the judges kids with Durham countering he has no kids. This was followed by him threatening the nieces and nephews which the judge also attempted to say he had none of those. This was followed by the defendant listing all the of relatives he was going to kill and the judge attempting to follow the logic as though winning an argument.


Allen’s parting words are a request for the judge to suck his dick to which Durham replied “okay,” before he was escorted out and threatened to subpoena everyone present.The ending is sudden and so strange to the protracted and intense argument that it is nothing short of comedic in how both parties handled the escalating confrontation.

Honestly, the entirety of the transcript needs to be read to understand the full scope of the professional and legal fuck up that took place in Georgia. The Judicial Qualifications Commission's had sent a letter to Durham regarding his unprofessional behavior and the judge has allegedly stepped down from overseeing the case. I have provided the link here, you’re welcome.

In addition, here is Justin Roiland, reading out the transaction in the voices of Rick and Morty.

You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.

In the 12 years since it went off the air, "Friends" continues to be adored by millions.

Aubrey Plaza is one of my favorite humans in Hollywood. She's honest, blunt, unapologetic, and hilarious. I just started my sophomore year of college, and found that some of her best moments can accurately describe the start of the school year.

1. When your advisor tells you that you should declare a major soon.

2. Seeing the lost and confused freshmen and remembering that was you a short year ago, and now being grateful you know the ins and outs of the campus.

3. Going to the involvement fair to sign up for more clubs knowing that you are already too involved.

4. When you actually do the reading required for the first class.

5. Seeing your friends for the first time since last semester.

6. When you're already drowning in homework during syllabus week.

7. Realizing you don't have the same excitement for classes as you did as a freshman.

8. Going home and seeing people from high school gets weirder the older you get.
