LUBBOCK, Texas (AP) -- A Texas judge ordered a defendant's mouth to be taped shut after the man kept interrupting his lawyer and the judge during an aggravated assault trial.


LUBBOCK, Texas (AP) -- A Texas judge ordered a defendant's mouth to be taped shut after the man kept interrupting his lawyer and the judge during an aggravated assault trial.

For about 20 minutes Tuesday, Carl Wiley, 36, ignored pleas from state District Judge Jim Bob Darnell and his own mother to keep quiet during a hearing outside the jury's presence.

Finally, Darnell ordered bailiffs to seal Wiley's mouth with duct tape.

"He was being very disruptive and he was trying to fire his second court-appointed attorney, and I informed him that when the attorney is appointed by the court, only the court can fire the attorney," Darnell said.

"Mr. Wiley continued to interrupt him," Darnell said, referring to attorney Steve Hamilton, "so the court duct-taped his mouth until the jury came in. Then I had him removed from the courtroom."

Hamilton declined to comment on the incident or on his client's conviction later Tuesday for ramming his vehicle into his estranged wife's car. She was not injured.

No sentencing date has been set.

its those damn panhandler texans that give the rest of us a bad name. that and that show "dallas".

west texans are totally different than everyone else. instead of having a southern drawl, we have satanic desert rituals. did you know that you can buy baby fat candles on the black market? and that it is not smart to bury a body in sand dunes...the sand all blows away during a "dust devil".

well, the rituals in the desert are different because being so close to mexico, usually the mexicans or tegua indians were blamed for the human sacrifices, but then after like 2 years, they were find out the bodies for for satans dinner.

here its blamed on black people. or the "zooman"...
politics are the same every where, blame the minority.
