Having watched "Caught in Providence" the self promoting "judge" is a joke. Anyone with a half a brain could do his job, maybe not with the smugness of His Honor. If you don't speak english you get away with virtually no punishment. His decisions appear to be abitrary based on how pretty you are, how dumb you play or if you show up with a baby. Maybe his shouw should be named "Caught in Narragansett" in which the show depicts how a "judge" and lawyer didn't know he needed a building permit to put an addition on his mansion and an additional structure. Judge, you are an embarassment to the black robe you wear.
