Knucklehead of the Day

Courtesy of Fark comes the Knucklehead of the Day: Jerry Stewart, a 59-year-old attorney from Benton, Ark. Now nobody likes lawyers except their own, but in a profession marked by hucksters, sheisters and charlatans, Jerry Stewart stood out last Thursday when he showed up in court -- drunk.

The Associated Press reported:

Stewart faces a total of six years in prison and could be disbarred if convicted of a fourth felony offense, prosecutor Robert Herzfeld said.

AP also said it was not known whether Thursday's court appearance involved two pending drunken driving charges.
