The Worst brief
Marshall George Cummings, Junior, of Tulsa, Oklahoma, was charged with attempted robbery in connection with a purse-snatching at a shopping centre
During the trial the , Cummings choose to defend himself.
While cross-examining the victim, Cummings asked, “Did you get a good look at my face when I took your purse?”
Cummings later decided to turn over his defence to a public defender, by then it was too late.
He was convicted and sentenced to 10 years in prison.
They know how to punish thieves in the US he would likely have been awarded an asbo in the UK (I think the sentence was a bit harsh) but he for sure won't do it again not for a very long time anyway
