Oklahoma judge opened fire while driving and intentionally crashed his car, police say

An Oklahoma judge was arrested in Austin, Texas, last week after authorities say he opened fire on parked vehicles while out driving, striking at least one of them, and intentionally crashed into a woman’s vehicle, telling officers later that she had cut him off.

Brian Lovell, an associate district judge in Garfield County, Oklahoma, was arrested Sept. 11 on a misdemeanor count of reckless driving. A felony count of engaging in deadly conduct with a firearm was forwarded to a grand jury for consideration.

Lovell was released on $10,000 bond and ordered to undergo a mental health evaluation.

Did he shout “I am the law!”? Because that would explain things.

Lovell told police there were two handguns in his vehicle, but he said “he did not know why he would have shot his gun and could not recall any part of the shooting incident,” according to the affidavit.

That’s some use of legal language. “I don’t recall murdering those women. I know they ended up dead, but I don’t know how. What would I have to gain?”

This fuck presided over cases that affected peoples’ lives. Sigh…

Republican?

some_guy ,

Oklahoma. You decide.

Spoiler: I don’t know, but it’s almost certain that he is.

Second spoiler: I lived in a state that borders Okie. They’re all repubs.

Okie here, I would almost bet money this guy is a republican.

Brian Lovell, an associate district judge

…jury and executioner too, apparently.

lars ,

This is in very poor taste, especially so soon after this senseless tragedy that none of us – not even an associate district judge or Jesus – was powerful enough, or bothered enough, to prevent.

CADmonkey ,

Jesus has been perfectly fine with people getting shot, haven’t you noticed

“The judge had a habit of masturbating with a penis pump under his robe during trials.”

“Investigators later collected carpet samples, Thompson’s robes and the chair from behind the bench, and found semen, according to court records.”

Oklahoma has us some judges, now.

ohlaph ,

Huh, so he’s a pervert too.

iamanurd ,

Different dude, same state.

billwashere ,

I read that last line as “found semen on court records” ……

CADmonkey ,

Well someone probably did

This should be a !byebyejob moment (do we have one of those in the fediverse? I guess I don't know how to link properly yet lmao)

Man got sick of waiting for the new GTA game.

BeMoreCareful ,

Oh, he got cut off.

In that case shooting up some cars and ramming another seems pretty ok. I mean, what else are you going to do?

sin_free_for_00_days ,

Such a perfect example of a responsible gun owner.

Ig someone should have shot him by their logic.

thefartographer ,

Oh fuck! That took me a moment! Oh damn! OH DAMN! That a hard fucking truth!!!

Afrazzle ,

Driving in the states must be nerve wracking knowing there’s a good chance any given car on the road is armed.

max ,

And that there are no proper driving lessons or exams like in some European countries.

RedAggroBest ,

some European countries.

Wait wait wait. Are you saying that some, as in more than one, Euro county doesn’t have a licensing exam? Iirc, Texas is the only state without one over here and they’re notably worse drivers than everyone else I encounter.

max ,

Not sure about that, specifically. I do know that some countries (e.g., The Netherlands) have way stricter exams than for instance Hungary.

braxy29 ,

unless something has changed, there’s an initial licensing exam in Texas.

Etterra ,

The sad truth of it is, because of the way our, that is to say America’s, cities and infrastructure are all laid out, it’s almost impossible to live in this country without a car. Consequently, they’ll give a driver’s license to damn near anybody who can operate the pedals, regardless of the State. Passing the eye exam is usually more important than the driving or written ones.

tuwwut ,

Wait what? Texas definitely has both a written exam and a driving test. Is it more extensive in other states or something?

Eta: Texas doesn’t require you to take a driver’s ed course if you’re over 18 years old, but you still have to pass both the written exam and driving test. Maybe that’s what you were remembering?

PoliticalAgitator ,

Just legal gun owner things.

CADmonkey ,

Yeah, I got cut off in my F150 once last week, and afterwards I was consumed by an overwhelming feeling of indifference, after which I drove the rest of the way home.

geosoco ,

I feel so much safer knowing he might show up and protect me from a grocery store robbery.

Dammit Oklahoma!

Mouselemming ,

Been watching Rez Dogs and my first thought was “Oklahoma? Yeah at least he wasn’t fucking a fucking catfish, man.”

rez_doggie ,

Catfish is life

Fucking a catfish is tame shit.
