Accused Murderer Told a Judge to ‘Suck My D***’ in Court and Somehow That Led to ‘Erroneous Discharge’ from Jail - Manhunt ongoing

[SilentPanda]

On Feb. 16, the now-wanted man had a hearing before Brooklyn Supreme Court Judge Vincent Del Guidice and, according to the New York Daily News, after being denied bail on the murder charge Buggs "repeatedly" told the judge, "suck my dick."

In response, the judge found Buggs in contempt of court and ordered him to serve an additional 30-day sentence—not that it would have particularly mattered; since the defendant was denied bail anyway, he would have been stuck on the widely-criticized penal island until his trial began regardless. But, Del Guidice apparently reasoned, there were legal principles like respect for authority and the comity of the courtroom at stake. The judge's formal/moral victory, however, eventually gave way to Buggs actually being released.

That criminal contempt charge included time served and the judge allowed Buggs to serve that 30-day sentence contemporaneously. So, when the term on the lesser charge ran out, the defendant was set free—despite his still-pending murder trial. Criminal defendants accused of murder are not typically allowed to post bail.

The Daily News reported that the contempt charge was inexplicably listed as the final resolution of Buggs's 2018 arrest on murder charges, which allowed for his release early morning Tuesday. The outlet noted that he "was apparently given cash and a [subway card] before boarding a correction department bus."

The New York State Department of Corrections and Community Supervision called it an "erroneous discharge.

Accused Murderer Told a Judge to ‘Suck My D***’ in Court and Somehow That Led to 'Erroneous Discharge' from Jail

Christopher Buggs, 26, reportedly told a judge to "suck" his "dick" during a virtual court appearance late last month. Instead, the judge held the accused murderer in contempt. Buggs has since been erroneously released from jail.

I'm not understanding it completely
But the judge add on a second sentence, and when it reach completion, they ignore the first crime and release him on the comment to the judge being complete?

I don't think they're ignoring the crime- it's an error. A potentially costly error, but an error nonetheless.

Its seems like his sentence went from "indefinite/awaiting trail" to "30 days and definite" in the jail computers.

Is this a separate instance that just so happened to have been posted last month? I know it's a fan-made video, but supposedly based on an actual court video?

Probably wouldn't have happened if we had

1. Proper criminal justice reform to straighten out what is or isn't allowed and what isn't necessary due the kinds of charges held against people
2. Actually invested in county, state, and federal infrastructure so these sorts of software anomalies are figured out without a suspected murderer being let out of jail, wasting time and money on catching someone twice.

If he weren't a murderer, I'd probably be hoping he evades them forever. But he's a murderer (most likely), so please fix this shit, police.
