A Detroit judge has been sidelined after ordering a sleepy teenager on a field trip to wear jail clothes and handcuffs in his courtroom.
The Associated Press reported that the court’s chief judge said Judge Kenneth King will be off the bench as he undergoes “necessary training.”
The teenage girl’s mother, Latoreya Till, told the Detroit Free Press the judge was “a big bully,” adding, “My daughter is hurt. She is feeling scared.”
Till said her daughter was on a field trip to the courthouse organized by The Greening of Detroit, an environmental group.

While in King’s courtroom Tuesday, the 15-year-old fell asleep.
King was not happy about the teenager falling asleep. But, as he told WXYZ-TV, it was her attitude that led him to order the teenager to wear jail clothes, be placed in handcuffs and be given stern words.
“I wanted this to look and feel very real to her, even though there’s probably no real chance of me putting her in jail,” he told the station.

King was temporarily taken off his criminal case docket to undergo “necessary training to address the underlying issues that contributed to this incident,” William McConico, the chief judge in the 36th District Court, said.
McConico also said the court “remains committed to providing access to justice in an environment free from intimidation or disrespect. The actions of Judge King on Aug. 13 do not reflect this commitment.”
King will continue to be paid while off the bench, a move approved by the State Court Administrative Office.

It is not clear how long King will undergo training or what the training involves.
King became a judge in 2006. At the close of his hearings Thursday, which can be viewed on YouTube, he made a heart shape with his hands.
Till told the Free Press her daughter was tired during the court visit because their family does not have a permanent home.

Wisconsin’s Most Wanted: Macailyn Rockweile
U.S. Marshals are looking for a woman who is a person of interest in a homicide case.
KENOSHA, Wis. – U.S. Marshals are looking for a woman who is a person of interest in a homicide case. Investigators say she fled to California with her boyfriend. He was arrested for the fatal shooting, but the 19-year-old has not been seen in the Badger State since last summer.
“She’s very young. Does not have much of a criminal history,” the U.S. Marshal on the case said. “However, the matters that she’s involved with now are very serious.”
The 19-year-old’s legal name is Macailyn Rockweiler, but to many she is known by a different name.
“Primarily, we know that she goes by the name of ‘Star,’” the marshal said.
U.S. Marshals said Rockweiler is a person of interest in a shooting that happened in June 2023. It ended with one man dead and two others wounded.

“The homicide itself was a drug deal gone bad,” the marshal said.
Two men were arrested following the shooting that took place in a Kenosha church parking lot.

“Ms. Rockweiler was in a relationship with one of the other parties that is suspected of engaging in this homicide,” the marshal said.
Investigators say Rockweiler and her boyfriend, Anthony Santana, fled to California. Shortly after, Santana was featured on “Wisconsin’s Most Wanted.” He was arrested after bragging about it to some people in the Golden State. Rockweiler was never found.
“She does have significant ties to Wisconsin,” the marshal said. “However, she does have ties out west as well.”
U.S. Marshals said Rockweiler does not have much of a criminal background and has shined on a different sort of stage.
“She’s had a history of employment around the State of Wisconsin in the adult industry,” the marshal said. “So, it is quite possible that she’s returned to that being that she’s comfortable in that area.”

MILWAUKEE – Colin Rea and two relievers combined on a two-hit shutout as the Milwaukee Brewers defeated the Cleveland Guardians 2-0 on Sunday for their fifth consecutive victory.
The NL Central-leading Brewers (72-52) improved to a season-best 20 games above .500 after going 7-3 on a 10-game homestand that included a four-game split with the NL West-leading Los Angeles Dodgers and a three-game sweep of the AL Central-leading Guardians.
Milwaukee’s five-game winning streak matches its longest of the season.

Rea (11-4) held the Guardians hitless for the first 5 2/3 innings. The 34-year-old right-hander struck out five and allowed two hits and no walks in his seven-inning stint.
“He’s just been an incredible anchor,” Brewers manager Pat Murphy said. “He really has. He gives you it every time out. What you see is what you get. It’s who he is as a human, every day the same, every day doing everything he can to help out whoever’s around him, whatever the mission is. The consummate teammate. I can’t say enough about him.”
Rea credited the way Eric Haase — starting at catcher for just the 10th time this season — called the game.
“I just think he did a good job of moving the ball around, predominantly with the four- and two-seam (fastball),” Rea said. “The slider wasn’t quite there today, so we kind of turned to the changeup when we needed to slow them down, so that was good too.”
Rea departed after hitting Jhonkensy Noel with a pitch for the second time to start the eighth inning. Bryan Hudson came out of the bullpen and retired the next three batters in order.
With usual closer Devin Williams unavailable after pitching three of the last four days, 30-year-old left-hander Jared Koenig retired the side in order in the ninth to earn his first career save.
“I definitely had it in the back of my mind, but I was just trying to focus on getting the hitters and making my pitches,” Koenig said.
Cleveland’s Ben Lively (10-8) gave up a run in each of the first two innings, but shut the Brewers down for the rest of his six-inning stint. He struck out five and allowed five hits and two walks to go with the two runs.
In the first inning, Milwaukee’s Brice Turang hit a leadoff triple to right and scored on Willy Adames’ two-out single to center.
Sal Frelick hit a one-out single in the second, advanced to third on a hit-and-run single from Joey Ortiz and scored when Haase grounded to short.
That was more than enough offense for Rea, who didn’t allow a hit until Steven Kwan lined a single to left with two outs in the sixth.

Will Brennan followed Kwan’s base hit with a single to center that put the potential tying run on base, but Rea ended the threat by retiring José Ramírez on a pop fly that first baseman Rhys Hoskins caught in foul territory.
“It’s a frustrating series,” Guardians manager Stephen Vogt said. “There’s no other way to put it. That’s a really good team over there, and they showed why. They can pitch.”
HONORING YOUNT
Before the game, the Brewers honored Hall of Famer Robin Yount to recognize the 50th anniversary of the two-time MVP’s major league debut. Yount spent his entire career with the Brewers and is regarded as the best player in franchise history.
Yount received a standing ovation before throwing out the first pitch.
During a pregame media session with former Brewers owner and MLB Commissioner Bud Selig, Yount said that he’s “the luckiest guy in the world, to have been drafted by the Milwaukee Brewers.”
“I love Milwaukee,” Yount said. “I love Wisconsin. It’s just worked out great for me.”

Brewers: Off Monday before starting a three-game series at St. Louis on Tuesday. RHP Frankie Montas (5-8, 4.86) starts for the Brewers on Tuesday, while RHP Erick Fedde (8-6, 3.40) pitches for the Cardinals.
