In June, the Oklahoma attorney general petitioned the state Supreme Court to remove District Judge Donald D. Thompson of Sapulpa based on recurring complaints that he used, during trials and other proceedings, under his robe, a pump device for enhancing masturbation, in view of court personnel, who complained of the "whooshing" noise the gadget made.

And in St. Paul, Minn., a 43-year-old woman was arrested for an incident in which she bit her new boyfriend's tongue too hard during a kiss, slicing off a portion and, police believe, inadvertently swallowing it. (She told police she has had issues with men in the past and might have panicked.) [The Oklahoman, 6-24-04] [Star Tribune, 6-17-04]

What a beautiful world we live in!

That's sick.Did they get his tongue back or did he have to get a new one.

That's kinda nasty.. What was he doing, masturbating during rape cases or something?

The part about the judge is why I belive in true anarchy. No man has the right to judge another man. No man is more qualified.

The part about biting the tounge off. Could be worse. At least he has his gonads.

Well technically, the judge doesn't actually "judge" the people, the jury does that (unless both parties agree to let the judge actually judge). You need some kind of justice system, or people won't be punished for murder, rape, ect.
