  • Fair for Its Day: The judge is not pleased with the jury after acquitting an experienced safe burglar on charges connected with the heist of more than $10,000, and calls them either dishonest or morons. The judge, who cites more than 25 years on the bench, might have gotten away with it in 1952, but today, this is frowned upon. In fact, at least one judge was reprimanded for yelling at the jury after delivering a not guilty verdict in a 2013 assault trial in Ohio.
