Attorney Frank Louderback, representing murder defendant Jerry Bottorff, asked the judge to suspend his client’s scheduled trial on July 20.
Why?
He’s entered the annual Ernest Hemingway Look-a-Like Contest at Sloppy Joe’s in Key West and doesn’t want to miss it. The winner will be crowned on July 21.
A judge turned down the request, pointing out that the trial date had been announced long previously, and wished Louderback the best of luck in next year’s look-alike contest. [Miami Herald, MSNBC]
