A North Carolina
judge says a woman
convicted of
resisting a public
officer and being
intoxicated and
disruptive must
write an essay on
being a lady.
Toni Marie King, 21, of Warrenton, pleaded guilty June
28 in Halifax County District Court to charges of
resisting a public officer and being intoxicated and
disruptive in exchange for prosecutors dropping
charges of assaulting a government official, larceny
and possession of stolen goods, The Daily Herald,
Roanoke Rapids, N.C., reported Monday.
Chief District Court Judge Brenda Branch ordered King
to write a two-page essay as part of her sentence titled
“How a Lady Should Behave in Public.”
King, who was accused of stealing beer from a Presto
store Feb. 3 and fighting with her arresting officer,
was also sentenced to 12 months supervised probation
and a substance abuse and alcohol assessment.
