CONSERVATIVE BUSH FEDERAL JUDICIAL APPOINTEE GETS ARRESTED FOR DUI WEARING BLACK COCKTAIL DRESS, HEELS AND FISHNET HOSE
BOSTON - A federal bankruptcy judge was arrested for driving drunk last week, but perhaps the most shocking part about the ordeal was that he was wearing women's clothing at the time.
Robert Somma, 63, was arrested on Feb. 6 after his Mercedes-Benz hit a pickup truck on a Massachusetts road. When authorities removed him from the vehicle, they said he wore a black women's cocktail dress, fishnet stockings and high heels.
Wednesday, Somma struck a plea deal with prosecutors in which he pleaded 'no contest' to a misdemeanor DUI charge and agreed to pay roughly $600 in penalties. He also agreed to a 12-month suspension of his judicial license.
The arresting officer did not mention the judge's unusual attire in the arrest report, but did write that Somma "had a difficult time locating his license in his purse."
Somma reportedly failed a sobriety test following his arrest, which was located near the town of Manchester. Officials believe the judge drove from Boston because his wife was out-of-town and no one in Manchester knew who he was.
Friday, Somma resigned from his post as a judge effective April 1.
Somma was appointed a First Circuit Court bankruptcy judge in 2004. Officials of the court said Somma is a judge in good standing and has no history of problems. source
