Art for Courtroom Aficionados Gets Archived, or Good For Her



Marilyn Church is gonna get her courtroom sketches put into the Library of Congress.  Good for her.  The article says, "Church noted the wide range of trials she has covered, from politicians and celebrities to mobsters and "lovers who shot each other."  Hell, this lady has probably lived a life close to my own, I just never drew these people down.


Every time I try to draw in court the judge yells and the bailiffs tackle me while my lawyer takes pictures.  That's cool, though, I only got community service.  I get to write "I will not draw offensive pictures of the judge and the baliff in compromising positions during my trial for drunken awesomeness" 10,000 times on a blackboard.

Check out the article.
