“I’m not guilty…he is!”

Linda wanted to make it very clear that she was not the one at fault…her loving husband is the one to blame. You can hear the judge chuckling as Linda goes on to tell him that her husband said he turned right on a yellow light. “I said you went through a yellow light? I’m not paying it…we’re gonna fight this.” Judge Caprio smiles and tells her she is going to have to fight the police officer who wrote the ticket.

Oops, the traffic light was red.

After looking at the footage of the traffic violation, Linda realized the light her husband went through was in fact red. Judge Caprio says to her, “So you came here today to tell me he’s guilty?” Linda quickly says, “I’m not guilty…the tickets in my name.” Judge Caprio responds with, “So the first thing you did was throw him under the bus.”

Judge Caprio tells the couple that the husband went through a light that had only been red for .3 of a second. Linda realizes that isn’t so bad but still thinks he is guilty.
