Judge Orders Men Charged With Escape To Watch 'Cool Hand Luke'

The Associated Press
AZTEC, N.M. — A judge has ordered two inmates accused of walking away from a work detail to watch "Cool Hand Luke," a movie starring Paul Newman as a prisoner who is killed after repeatedly escaping a chain gang.
Dalet Flores, 29, and Raymond Holguin, 22, were arraigned Monday before state District Judge George Harrison on felony charges of escape in connection with an April 4 incident.
They were patching holes in the road when they walked into the desert — toward a SWAT training exercise being held nearby by area law enforcement officers.
"This was the work release that had the entire SWAT team and dogs training nearby," Harrison commented.
"I think we'll have everybody (at the jail) watch ¹Cool Hand Luke' this week," he said.
Flores had only one more day behind bars before he fled the work detail, his attorney, Cosme Ripol, told the judge.
Holguin admitted trying to escape. "I just walked away," he said.
Flores was serving seven days for driving on a suspended license and having no insurance. Holguin had served 60 days of 131-day sentence for probation violations.
Both men now face up to five years in prison if convicted of escape.

To quote Lester Maddox, "what our state needs is a better class of prisoner". Of course if the Judge really wanted to punish them he should have made them watch "Eyes wide shut". now that's painful. :uh:

PS VD did you get my PM? I don't always seem to get them right. :o

Ohh, it's a rhetorical question. I was preparing a statement with charts and graphs. :o

Yeah, that's what I meant. I certainly don't want to compare "stupid things I've done" stories. I would win if I could remember back that far (yesterday). ;)

Is this just another evil name hack?

Vintage---I do not know why "you" continue to perpetuate this evil name code hacking thingey. :eek:

Pretty clever hacking the word "you" into the heading of this thread so I would think "you" was me! :silly:

Yes, indeed, you are bored today.

Pretty funny though.

VD, you may think you have a "inny", but my sister drives an "outy". :eek:

The real VD and KW

Although they strictly adhered to the company policy of one drink at lunch, VintageDirt and KWJams found that they were not the most productive employees in the afternoon.

That explains the buffness.

Nothing like tossing around a few brewskis like those during lunch to keep toned up.

Or,,,,,would that be tuned up? :think:


Yes, my truck is in the shop and I have nothing better to do. :whiner:

Blahahaaha! LMAO. Good one bsmith.

But that makes me thirsty too... :ugg:

Ok, I'm passing through again ---

I had to go to work.

Although I was having fun pickin on VD the picture I posted was my reaction to the original title of this thread, "how stupid can you get"?

I am all for physical fittness---but the parents of the kid pictured should be looked at very closely. :|

For that young of a kid to be that buff means he is pumping iron.

& IMHO is stupid parenting!
