Federal Judge Busted For DUI Wearing Women's Clothes

Former bankruptcy judge Robert Somma was arrested in Feb. 2008 after hitting a pickup truck. Officials say he was drunk and wore women's clothing.
Former bankruptcy judge Robert Somma was arrested in Feb. 2008 after hitting a pickup truck. Officials say he was drunk and wore women's clothing.


BOSTON - A federal bankruptcy judge was arrested for driving drunk last week, but perhaps the most shocking part about the ordeal was that he was wearing women's clothing at the time.

Robert Somma, 63, was arrested on Feb. 6 after his Mercedes-Benz hit a pickup truck on a Massachusetts road. When authorities removed him from the vehicle, they said he wore a black women's cocktail dress, fishnet stockings and high heels.

Wednesday, Somma struck a plea deal with prosecutors in which he pleaded 'no contest' to a misdemeanor DUI charge and agreed to pay roughly $600 in penalties. He also agreed to a 12-month suspension of his judicial license.

The arresting officer did not mention the judge's unusual attire in the arrest report, but did write that Somma "had a difficult time locating his license in his purse."

Somma reportedly failed a sobriety test following his arrest, which was located near the town of Manchester. Officials believe the judge drove from Boston because his wife was out-of-town and no one in Manchester knew who he was.

Friday, Somma resigned from his post as a judge effective April 1.

Somma was appointed a First Circuit Court bankruptcy judge in 2004. Officials of the court said Somma is a judge in good standing and has no history of problems.

I just love the irony of this:

Parking chief fired for illegal parking
ROME (Reuters) - Rome's mayor sacked the city's traffic and parking chief on Sunday after a newspaper reported he parked his car in a no parking zone and displayed a handicapped permit that belonged to an 86-year old woman.

Giovanni Catanzaro parked his red Alfa Romeo Brera in a tow away zone near the Spanish Steps in central Rome before heading off to a restaurant on Friday night, Roman daily Il Messaggero reported on Sunday, complete with pictures from the scene.

His car displayed a permit for disabled drivers that was no longer valid and initially issued to a senior citizen, the paper said, noting that officials almost never tow away a disabled person's vehicle no matter where it is parked.

A spokesman for Rome Mayor Walter Veltroni said Catanzaro had been removed from his post as head of the city's municipal police force that oversees traffic and parking violations after the newspaper report.

Rome has a series of restrictions on driving and parking along many of its narrow, cobblestoned streets, though parking illegally -- often on sidewalks and crosswalks -- is a common sight across the city.

OK this is kind of gross and ironic. Mostly gross

NEW YORK (Reuters) - A Manhattan restaurant that unveiled a record-breaking $25,000 dessert last week has been forced to shut its doors temporarily due to an infestation of mice and cockroaches.

Serendipity 3 on the Upper East Side failed its second consecutive health inspection in a month on Wednesday night after health officials found a live mouse, mouse droppings in multiple places, flies and dozens of live cockroaches, the Heath Department said.

"We're rectifying it as quickly as we can," said owner Steven Bruce, adding the restaurant would then be allowed to reopen.

Serendipity 3 set a Guinness world record on November 7 for the most expensive dessert when it partnered with luxury jeweler Euphoria New York to create "Frrozen Haute Chocolate," a blend of 28 cocoas fused with 0.2 ounces of edible 23-karat gold.

It comes with an 18-karat gold bracelet with 1 carat of white diamonds at the base of the goblet. The sundae is topped with whipped cream covered with more gold and a side of La Madeline au Truffle from Knipschildt Chocolatier, which sells for $2,600 a pound.

The desert is a more decadent take on Serendipity's $8.50 "Frrrozen Hot Chocolate," which the talk show host Oprah Winfrey once endorsed by saying it made her want to "dance on the chandeliers." Bruce also has a $1,000 ice cream sundae on the menu called Golden Opulence.

Guys just remember: Don't cheat. Some women are this vindictive...

SHANGHAI (Reuters) - A Chinese woman who killed her lover with a rat poison-laced kiss when she suspected him of being unfaithful has been sentenced to death, a newspaper said Thursday.

Xia Xinfeng, from Maolou in the central province of Henan, passed a capsule with rat poison from her mouth to her long-time lover, Mao Ansheng, during a kiss, the Shanghai Daily said.

Mao swallowed the capsule and died soon afterwards.

"The couple had said that if either one of them cheated on the other, he or she would have to die," the paper said in explaining the mouth-to-mouth assault.

Xia found Mao had been "talking" with another woman and deemed that he had broken their promise.

This one kind of creeped me out:

CARACAS (Reuters) - A Venezuelan man who had been declared dead woke up in the morgue in excruciating pain after medical examiners began their autopsy.

Carlos Camejo, 33, was declared dead after a highway accident and taken to the morgue, where examiners began an autopsy only to realize something was amiss when he started bleeding. They quickly sought to stitch up the incision on his face.

"I woke up because the pain was unbearable," Camejo said, according to a report on Friday in leading local newspaper El Universal.

His grieving wife turned up at the morgue to identify her husband's body only to find him moved into a corridor -- and alive.

Reuters could not immediately reach hospital officials to confirm the events. But Camejo showed the newspaper his facial scar and a document ordering the autopsy.

I was good and I never had to feel that way. In the Navy while I was stationed in Germany, we did 1 week up with the German Navy up north. We got to go to the Officiers club and have some great meals. Those little airline bottle of liq. were fun to drink. They didn't have anymore one night after 3 of us got done with it, but I didn't do too bad. Had a fun, probably not so straight, walk back to my room. Felt fine the next day. I don't see wanting to feel bad the next morning and pay the price.

Life never ceases to amaze me. Just when I think everybody is going to be sane, someone pops out and just goes berserk! Case in point: Lisa Nowak

OK, if you've haven't heard the news in the last day, you might have missed that one of our astronauts decided to drive 1000 miles from Houston to Orlando in diapers to get rid of another woman that was moving in on her "other" man. No one's sure if they ever actually got together, but that was her man, dang it! The woman, Captain Lisa Marie Nowak, is married with kids when she decided yesterday to load up her car with a knife, rubber tubing, a steel mallet, a wig, pepper spray and a pellet gun, then make the 12 hour, 1000 mile drive to meet this woman's flight so that they could "talk". All over a guy who she says she had "more than a business relationship but less than a romantic relationship with." Apparently they never even flew a mission together so there wasn't an initiaion to the 200 mile high club involved. Does this seem a little off to anyone else?

Also, drilling was the way, however, in long distance running, there isn't "Plays" you can practice and really the big key is endurance, so drills were focused mainly on running another mile instead of a lap around the field. In marching band, the amount of drilling was exhausting, there are whole pieces of music that I can still play by memory and will probably die with them in my head. Not something I would trade for anything but strange nonetheless.

Yeah, just a "little talk" from my cross country coach was all it took to get anyone focused on giving all they had to achieve beyond their own expectations. I had a "little talk" once and he explained what "team" meant, and what "dedication" meant and how far my "talent" would get me if I didn't buckle down and get with his program. I remember that he was the last person in the world I wanted to let down by not giving 100% all the time. I was motivated to acheive on my own, but his input was a magnification of that resolve.

When I think back on the "little talk" I think of two things: 1. I have applied his philosophy to much of my life since then and 2. Mad TV had a skit where there was a dinner party and the husband was rowdy and the wife said "can I talk to you in the kitchen?" When the two rejoined the party the husband was cowed and the party continued. Of course, everyone at the party had to get a talking to and it ended with only the wife acting normal and the rest acting like sulking 8 year olds. Sort of funny.

Being a tough coach is one thing. Most good coaches are tough. But, there's is a very small dividing line between tough coach and abusive. I get after my players all the time when they are distracted, like last night, I was running a drill and I had a group of girls that were just talking and goofing off. So I had my assistant take the group that was working well in the drill and just ran them through the horseshoe drill myself, running, turning, catching the ball and shooting. Over and over until I saw that they were doing it right. Would I put my hands on these players. Not a chance.

I had tough coaches when I was running in school, but the toughness was because of what was demanded of us(the athletes). I was never struck by any coach and they were able to bring out the best of the kids they were leading. I must say that these stories never cease to amaze/shock me because the mentors I had growing up acheived so much without the use of any physical contact except a rare and much deserved pat on the back. The kids that were not serious about the program were dropped from the sport so that their indifference to our success didn't hamper our endeavors. I can remember being yelled at by a coach and feeling puny but being hit was out of the question and was as I have said completely unnecessary. Holy Crap!

You know, I make a point of making sure my team is good sports win or lose. I have a loaded team in basketball this season with three dominant scorers that can beat them any weekend. I really have to rein them in some days because when you're winning a lot you can get cocky and say some pretty stupid things. I don't let them run too much smack talk in the gym and especially when we're up because they've got to learn to be sportsmen (or in this case women) first. Plus, I've found when you rub a team's nose in a bad loss the next time you meet, there's bad blood, even in a learning league.

Its sad to see that parents and coaches can ruin a good time for a child. The main job is to have fun and play the sport correctly and fair. If children have fun playing the sport, they will want to do it more. They will be active. I think one reason why I dont like to play sports now as an adult is wondering what other are thinking of me. I had a soccer coach use to tell us crap to try to make us play better. Coaches and parents have to remember..they are kids...let them play and have fun. I like to watch pee-wee soccer...kids under 5 years old. They are having fun...might kick the ball in the wrong goal, but they are having a good time. Just my 2 cents.

I am a hockey coach. This weekend a friend of mine was at his sons hockey game and his son got checked into the boards hard and the opposing player got a penalty. The opposing player skated past his bench and his coach told him he should celebrate hurting the kid he checked. So the kid skated around the ice and celebrated for about 30 seconds. Coaches like that give all us hockey coaches bad names. I am also on the board of directors for our association and we are now going to contact the president of that association and complain about that coach.

Sounds like some of these coaches took lessons from Bobby Knight school of coaching, huh? Belittle your players will help to make them play better, huh? Can't figure out that one. I agree with running laps or doing ladders to keep them focused, but not water in the cold weather. What an idiot!

Was the screw up caused by goofing off or was the screw up just a regular accident? If it was goofing off, I can see doing something. If my team starts to get squirrley, my response is "Run a lap. Now." Then the extra energy is gone and they can focus again.

If the screw up is something that happen in a game that's out of control then that coach has some problems.

You've gotta wonder where these guys learned to coach at. As a motivation tool, tearing down the player is not very effective. Deep down, these are probably guys who never made it as far as they wanted in the sport and are looking to their kids to fulfill their dreams.

HS coach charged for allegedly hitting students in groin

MONUMENT, Colo. -- A former high school basketball coach faces 39 charges for allegedly hitting male students in the groin, showing them pornography and pouring water on his players then driving them to games in the winter with the windows rolled down.

Gregory Lynn Burr, 28, face charges ranging from sexual assault on a child by one in a position of trust to child abuse resulting in serious bodily injury, according to court documents reviewed by The Gazette of Colorado Springs. One of the students claims to have had scrotal surgery because of Burr's alleged assault.

A student in documents said Burr would ask them, "What is the capital of Thailand?" When they would answer "Bangkok," he would hit them in the groin.

The incidents allegedly took place from September 2005 to March 2006 at The Monument Academy.

Burr's phone number in Colorado Springs was not listed. Burr attorney Phil Dubois told The Gazette Monday that the charges are unwarranted, adding, "Mr. Burr is not a sex offender or anything close to it."

Burr, who was arrested, posted $10,000 bail on Dec. 14, court records show.

Burr is no longer is employed at the charter school, which is part of the Lewis-Palmer School District 38, said Ted Belteau, the district's executive director of personnel and student services.

Burr's wife, Sharalee, was athletic director, coach of the girl's basketball team last season and a teacher at the school told the newspaper that she was fired.

In arrest records, some of the victims portrayed the incidents as Burr's misguided attempts at humor but said they kept quite for fear of getting kicked off the team. One student estimated some of the players were hit in the groin 30-40 times.

Another said the blows occurred at every practice, with the coach hitting them with his hand, basketballs and tennis balls.


Kicking your player in the nuts! Now there's a motivator.
