What Was She Thinking? Female Magistrate Takes Courthouse Photos of Men Urinating

While this story does not concern substance abuse, it certainly deserves honorable mention. Florida attorney and traffic magistrate Rhonda Hollander has a strange hobby: photographing guys urinating in the courthouse men’s room. Is this an expensive hobby? Well considering it led to her arrest – it might end up costing her plenty.

She followed some guy into the men’s room and started taking pictures of him taking a leak. Then another unsuspecting fellow entered and she took his picture, too. The police came and she got into a struggle with him. The story is here and here among others.

Someone would not engage in this kind of behavior unless something was seriously wrong. So we hope that whatever caused her to do this can be identified and dealt with – in other words, we hope she will be alright.
What was she planning to do with these pictures? Was she taking them for her own personal enjoyment? Was she going to sell them to some weird twisted porn sites? We don’t want to know.

Florida Bar Suspends Attorney For Cocaine Use

Florida attorney Hugh Henry Lee was suspended by his state bar for 30 days after testing positive for cocaine on a drug test. Lee was arrested for DUI in 2009 and entered a plea of no contest. In May, 2010, he agreed to treatment which required drug testing as part of the program. Since then, two drug tests have come back positive for cocaine, the last one in March of this year.

The story is here.
