Paul Wade mocked victim’s family/YouTube

Courtroom brawl in Kentucky.

Blog King, Mass Appeal

LOUISVILLE — A viral video shows a massive courtroom brawl that resulted in multiple arrests. The donnybrook transpired last Friday at Jefferson County District Court during a preliminary murder hearing in Louisville, Kentucky. All hell broke loose when defendant Paul Wade mocked the victim’s family as deputies escorted his black ass back to jail. โ€œYes maโ€™am, alright, thank you,โ€ a handcuffed Wade told Jefferson County Judge Anne Haynie as he sauntered towards the exit. Then he glanced to his left and called one of the family members a “bitch.” A bout of fisticuffs quickly ensued. Deputies pepper-sprayed two family members in the hallway and arrested four total. Monnetra Cain, Joshua Smith, Isaiah Smith, and Joshua Whetstone were charged with several misdemeanor counts of disorderly conduct and obstructing government operations.

What’s sad is Judge Haynie was mentoring an 8th grade student at the time. “I had an eighth-grader who was shadowing me,” she told reporters. “She wants to be a judge.” Social media reaction was priceless. One viewer wrote, “I bet he won’t say nothing else in court again. ๐Ÿ˜†” Another added, “An 8th grader shadowing a murder case….WHATTTT? You can tell the judge seems ready to retire.”

Wade, a 31-year-old gangsta, murdered Edward Lamont Smith, 26, and Alexis McCrary, 25, last month.

Because she had no control over the courtroom, Judge Haynie plans to hire more deputies next time.

Ya think?

Watch the melee.

  1. I would have given them a 10 minute grace period to whoop his disrespectful face in!

  2. The Deputies were very lax in their alertness to probable conflict and the judge should have had the defendant removed and the courtroom cleared after the first outburst. That outburst was the redflag.

  3. Judge should have just retreated to chambers and let them beat that mutherf*cker into an oblivion.

  4. Those single unmarried uneducated mothers with multiple children by multiple baby daddyโ€™s and their lawless offspring!!!

  5. If he has enough nerve to call the dead victims family member a bitch then he deserve to be treated like one. I know this may not be a death penalty case but if it was up to me, I would let the victims family choose how the perpetrator is to be put to death and I guarantee you they’re not going to pick lethal injection.

  6. That courtroom had a palpable amount of insecurities between the victims, defendant, attorney, judge etc… That’ll be their wake up call. Should know better to escort a murder suspect into anything by just 1 cop into a small courtroom with 1 other cop total of 2 to standby vs a family of 9 less than 10ft away from him with no barrier.

  7. Judge ANNE is A THUG, y’all seen how she came up off that bench on da floor ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜

  8. See how the children of Israel seeks revenge. They have forgotten what the LORD their GOD has commanded them! My Heavenly FATHER is greatly disappointed in His own special possessions; the Hebrews!

  9. YOU ARE DEALING WITH A MURDERER, THERE SHOULD BE A BARRIER BETWEEN FAMILIES, DEFENDANT, JURY, JUDGE. THIS INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY IS NOT SAFE ESPECIALLY WHEN THE GUILTY IS GUILTY.

  10. That Judge hurried outta that robe, she was like no way I want to be a Judge now up in here with these angry Black Americans. Poor Judge, just took off that robe, grabbed her purse, and was ready to go home. Its funny, but not funny because the guy has taken a life. Yes Judge retire, that would’ve wrecked my nerves too. God bless All.

  11. @Heather Simpson: That lil girl is gonna grow up to cry for help rather than be the one that takes control of the room when stuff goes sideways. Poor excuse for a judge , imagine if that was a male judge.

  12. im most impressed by the 8th grader knowing that she wanted to be a judge when she grew up. I still don’t know what I want to do an im 34

  13. Why do you have a 8 year old in the court room with you during a murder hearing job shadow

  14. Sheesh…jumping on the judges desk like apes. Best thing this non thinking group could’ve done was to bond him out of jail then get him…

  15. And now the guy who murdered, will end up with millions after suing the state for not protecting him while in custody

  16. He ABSOLUTELY NEEDED HIS BUTT WHOOPED! He provoked that family. Charges should be dropped against all of them. He is a COLD BLOOD MURDERER! Iโ€™m glad they beat his ๐Ÿคฌ. What a way to get ready to retire, Judge is going out with a BANG ๐Ÿค›๐Ÿฝ

  17. That 8 year old having second thoughts about a career as a judge after this lol.

  18. I never knew 8th graders could shadow judges! WOW! I wish my school had that lol

  19. I was hoping they bashed him up real good what a monster heโ€™s to say Bitch on the way out of the courtroom after he killed their family members they was on him like white on rice way to go๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿง๐Ÿ˜ข๐Ÿ˜ฑmy condolences and praises to the family at least that got some justification๐Ÿ™‹๐Ÿพโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฟ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฟ

  20. In a situation like this, the police should be able to bust skulls and lay charges later. No one has the right to disrespect the court, regardless if they are the victims family, or the defendant. The defendant should have his teeth knocked out for instigating this, what a colossal screw up on the part of the deputies, using senior citizens for court security? Come on.

  21. I donโ€™t understand why they would let an alleged murderer near any of the spectators. They should take them out a different door. Thatโ€™s a poorly configured court room for a murder case.

  22. Anybody would be pissed if the suspect said anything besides I’m sorry

  23. This is why some courtrooms don’t bring defendents to the courtroom in person and use video conferences instead

  24. Im with the family he was talking shit ๐Ÿ˜ก๐Ÿ˜ก๐Ÿ˜ก๐Ÿ˜ก

  25. First! No more than 2 family members of victim in court room. Second! Judge was not protected as you can see defendant runs behind judges desk and exits court room…really! Can’t belive this happened during a murder case!!!! Glad to hear some attendees brought up on charges. However, discipline proceedings need to happen for inability to protect judge and fellow employees by courts security detail including management leadership. Stay tuned!

  26. Ugly judge was laughing , she thought it was funny, until the fight came up next to her, then she wet herself n soiled her drawers. typical spineless judge

  27. A bunch of violent animals. Did anyone believe that this was going to go any other way? They don’t respect the courts. They have to be the loudest in that room. They can’t process reason, logic, or respect. These are facts. Just look at it for yourself.

  28. That white judge saw black sea of rage and thought dam without the feds we all food ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

  29. It’s always a certain demographic that can’t seem to behave in public.

  30. These people are clowns!! A double murder?!?! Iโ€™m surprised there wasnโ€™t more family members in that court room. Talk about saved by Grace!! Then you have the cast from Cocoon as security??? Sorry, donโ€™t mean to be disrespectful but this could have been really really bad.

  31. This is why fat old men shouldnโ€™t be bailiffs. Iโ€™d fire everyone of the slobs.

  32. I’m sorry but my FIRST IMMEDIATE THOUGHT was this was a SLOW MOVING FEMALE Judge. Of course being a judge doesn’t typically require physical fitness but a MALE judge would be prepared for physical outbursts in a courtroom especially a public murder trial or hearing or whatever this was.
