License suspended? It's definitely not OK to drive or from the courthouse

When a judge tells you, "Do not leave this courtroom and drive your car from this parking lot," it's a good idea to take this as an order rather than a suggestion.  Thirteen south Florida drivers were quickly nabbed by Florida Highway Patrol (FHP) troopers after ignoring the judge and attempting to make a quick exit from the courthouse lot in their own vehicles Tuesday, according to the South Florida Sun Sentinel.

Operation DL-Core is a statewide crackdown by the FHP on drivers who somehow think it's OK to hop behind the wheel and drive to and from the courthouse after having their licenses suspended. FHP Lt. Earl Brown said he was particularly annoyed because these individuals know they are breaking the law.  "They have actually no respect for the laws ... even with the instruction from the judge they continue to drive out on the roadways," he said, as a trooper snagged yet another unlicensed driver behind a Dunkin' Donuts across from the courthouse in Delray Beach.

"A great deal of our traffic crashes or incidents on the interstate involve people with suspended licenses."

Maybe his a/c was broken

A neighbor who enjoys letting it all hang out prompted two Palm Coast residents to put in a call to the Flager County Sheriff's Department earlier this month, according to news-journalonline.com.  The residents complained that the neighbor had a habit of "walking around outside wearing only two bandanas tied together," and they had photos to prove it.  What apparently pushed them over the edge, the story said, was when they looked outside one night and saw the naked neighbor masturbating near his car.  One of the residents chased him back inside with a flashlight.  But they told deputies they did not want the man arrested.  Go figure.

It's prime time for cheating spouses

Veteran detectives say the holidays are prime time for cheating spouses, the Daytona Beach News-Journal reports. There are more excuses to go out, says Ormond Beach PI Jack McEligot. "When people are in extended affairs, they want scenarios where they can meet year-round," he says. "They're like a criminal looking for an opportunity. (The holidays) can create more opportunities." Palm Coast PIs Billie Memory and Jenny Smith have filmed cheating spouses in the throes of passion on the beach at night, atop a car parked in an empty mall and inside the garden of a restaurant. Sometimes a client gets upset and threatens them when they provide evident the spouse is cheating. "We deal with some crazy people sometimes," says Smith.
