I would like to applaud Judge Wapner on his decision handed down for the defendant during the May 23 airing of “People’s Court.†He very astutely judged that the young girl who kicked her date’s car was understandably reacting in anger to what sounded to me like a case of sexual assault. The young man obviously thought that with no witnesses, she would not be able to defend her action “in court,†but the judge saw through his arrogance. I thought Wapner’s comments were sensitive and thoughtful. The young man probably deserved far worse than a kick in the car.
