Jack Thompson should be judged guilty on 27 misconduct charges according to the recommendations of a judge.

"Mr Thompson, we'll be investigating your disciplinary measures today. Do you have anything to say to explain your behaviour?"

"Yes, your honour. I was inspired to be a bad Lawyer, by the video game Ace Attorney. I think you should ban this sick filth."

I'm wondering how much more mud he/any one else can fit on his reputation.

It has to be about covered by now, surely?

Titter. I'm sure he'll blame GTAIV for his actions.

If you do, see if you can find out when Jack's hearing is - sometime in the first week of June, according to the article.

sotu1 · 22nd May 2008, 10:38

any publicity is good publicity, Jack will try to use this to his advantage but will end up looking like a pillock. again.

PhenomRed · 22nd May 2008, 11:26

He's just gonna write another letter to the judge now...

shigllgetcha · 22nd May 2008, 11:33

or the judges mother maybe- in refrence to the letter he wrote to the rockstar ceo

27 charges must be enuf to get him disbarred??

Dave Penguin · 22nd May 2008, 11:56

I think it's high time to start legal proceedings against Jack, claiming his actions have been irreparably influential in causing legions of Law students to try to be terrible, terrible Lawyers...

Squadexodus · 22nd May 2008, 13:19

The lawyer that prosecutes him should dress up as pheonix wright

Dave Penguin · 22nd May 2008, 13:31

I think the case for the prosecution should most certainly include the Gigabyte employees responsible for the recent spat with Asus.
