Accused Cop Murderer Delays Jury Selection By Smearing Something….Crappy… On His Face

Sometimes  I read stories that make me want to chuck my computer out the window, move to a remote part of Idaho, and never be seen or heard from again.

This is one of those stories.

I wanna quit the human race, y’all.

Accused cop-killer Travis Boys halts jury selection by rubbing feces on his face https://t.co/E0plFPRc1l

I guess he didn’t like the way it was going. This was the obvious next move.

According to NOLA.com:

Travis Boys, charged with killing a New Orleans police officer in 2015, halted jury selection in his first-degree murder trial late Wednesday afternoon (Oct. 18) when he rubbed feces on his face, head and mouth in the courtroom, according to two law enforcement sources.

 

Boys, 35, has pleaded not guilty and not guilty by reason of insanity to the charge that he murdered NOPD Officer Daryle Holloway during an escape from custody on June 20, 2015. A jury was being impaneled Wednesday for a trial expected to open testimony next Monday.

 

Orleans Parish prosecutor Taylor Anthony was at the podium questioning the day’s second panel of prospective jurors when the incident occurred around 4 p.m.

 

As the prosecutor spoke, Boys, seated at the defense table between attorneys Billy Sothern and Matthew Vogel, pulled from his suit pocket excrement that he had wrapped in a napkin, apparently during an earlier restroom break. He began rubbing the feces on his face and head without saying a word.

He had the poop ready in his suit pocket…..

He’s trying reeeeeeal hard to get that “not guilty by reason of insanity” ticket, isn’t he?

He had already been deemed competent to stand trial.

Criminal District Judge Karen Herman ordered an immediate halt to the proceedings, dismissed the jury panel that had witnessed the incident, and ordered a new competency evaluation for the defendant on Thursday.

 

Boys, who faces life imprisonment if convicted of murdering the 22-year NOPD veteran officer, already had been deemed competent to stand trial following a Sept. 21 hearing in Herman’s courtroom that lasted nearly six hours.

So… actually crazy? Or a really good actor?

“Boys’ actions on Wednesday have been mirrored twice in recent years inside Jefferson Parish courtrooms.”

So…. looks to me like word on the street is “rub sh*t on your face” if you want to get off for being crazy.

Great.
