The Morning Call reports that an Upper Nazareth man was found guilty of misdemeanor theft for stealing $3700 worth of flooring material from a company he was working for.
Judge Kimberly McFadden, apparently found the man’s name amusing, Twist, and asked if he had any relatives named Oliver. She then tacked onto the sentence a requirement to write a book report on Dicken’s Oliver Twist. Failure to do so will result in a parole violation.
Maybe it’s me, but this type of action doesn’t seem right. Judges can pretty much do what they want and while there is no harm done in this case, it does seem a bit arrogant. What do you think?
