Thief drops pot in Court

Nineteen year old Devin K Hoerauf was attending court in Rockville, MD, to answer to charges of multiple robbery.

As he stood up at the defense table something fell out of his pocket. It turns out the something was a bag full of marijuana.

His lawyer, quick to jump to his defense said ” “He is brain-damaged, your honor,” she said. “I don’t mean he’s just a defendant who does dumb stuff. This is a boy with an IQ in triple digits. His brain is glued together with Silly Putty. He can’t think his way out of a paper bag, but he can do physics.” The lawyer, Gwyn Hoerauf, apparently knows: she’s the defendant’s mother.

The jury missed the marijuana incident, but they still ended up convicting the teen on four robbery counts.
