Shot in Court

In this Sept. 1, 2009 photo, a sign is seen on the city hall door in Jericho, Ark. It was just too much, having to return to court twice on the same day to contest yet another traffic ticket, and Fire Chief Don Payne didn't hesitate to tell the judge what he thought of the police and their speed traps. The response from cops? They shot him. Right there in court. (AP Photo/Tim Rand)
