Judge orders defendant's mouth taped shut

This seems like something Ming would do; not that I disagree (with Ming OR the judge in the article), I only make the observation.

POCATELLO, Idaho (AP) -- A state judge who said he lost patience with an unruly defendant ordered court officials to cover the man's mouth with duct tape. The unusual move was ordered Monday by 6th District Judge Peter D. McDermott during a probation violation hearing for Nicklas Frasure. The 23-year-old Frasure was convicted of felony theft in 2008 and recently released from prison.

During the hearing, Frasure made repeated outbursts and ignored the judge's orders to refrain from interrupting the court. The judge then ordered bailiffs to silence Frasure.

The Idaho State Journal reported that bailiffs found a roll of duct tape, tore off a piece and put it over his mouth.

The judge ordered Frasure placed in the custody of the Department of Correction mental health facility in Boise.
