[@christinebodhitreeexotics356]

I got clean 30 years ago after a plea agreement mandated inpatient rehab for a first offense. I am still grateful to this day. Life is hard...but at least I'm alive to live it!❤️

[@josephd6203]

Congratulations! It’s a huge thing, getting clean! I don’t know you, but I’m proud of you all the same!

[@dnache7553]

I (as a recovering alcoholic with 7 + yrs of sobriety) appreciate this judge calling out the BS and holding people accountable. He was professional, compassionate, and more lenient then this guy deserved.

[@deidrekoehler2882]

That one woman in her pajamas was expecting an overnight visit.

[@GenX1968]

WTG on your sobriety! Stay strong! You don’t want to be 50 and actively using like Lambrose.

[@BlackMilkSleep]

I also am a recovering alcoholic, with a few good years strung together. Once my withdrawals stopped, (and even with MAT I had a seizure. One thing that people don’t understand about benzodiazepine and alcohol, is that the life-threatening symptoms begin AFTER you think you’ve made it through.) You may be eating your first meal in a week, feelin’ good, and then you broadside a minivan full of kids. I’m a physician, and even I underestimated it. Do not, I repeat, ✨do not✨ try to tackle this without medical assistance.

[@dnache7553]

@@BlackMilkSleep Absolutely! My last week of drinking before I could get into a rehab center was “maintenance drinking”. I didn’t want to have a seizure in front of my children. In my outpatient rehab I was placed on medication to prevent seizures and I am now over 8 years sober. I witnessed many people in AA meetings have seizures and it is scary AF! Be careful and get professional assistance to get sober it could save your life or at the least avoid a traumatic event for you and your loved ones.

[@deidrekoehler2882]

Congrats of 7 years! My husband sobered up and has been sober since 4-10-84, which to date as I am writing this is 38 years. He always states when he speaks at a meeting that jail saved him! He spent 3 months in jail and realized every time he went it was longer and longer time, all because of his use, so he took treatment offered. My kids have never seen their father drink or use, neither have I and he went to College and is an amazing husband and man. It can be done! Great job!

[@JulieMorales-kp4yc]

That's wonderful 😊 congrats to him.

[@vonkerman8168]

The opening with Judge Simpson was hard for me. I have my own demons I am dealing with and that was something I needed to hear. Really making me think about my current life choices. That man is as precious as gold. Everyone needs a father or grandpa like Judge Simpson.

[@lexocho2040]

Judge Simpson's take is so refreshing. He takes time, sees the humanity in people, and looks for a solution that provides a long-term resolution for the defendant and courts.

[@Vanessa-qj8xg]

He is a humanitarian for sure

[@elitereptilian200]

judge Simpson is just an awesome human being and a class act through and through.. he always really, really actually tries to help people with heart and compassion but if you start to cross the line he switches to no mercy judge dredd instantly.. world needs more people like judge Simpson..

[@merlynshandley6337]

What a huge waist of the courts and everyone that's involved time/effort! For some POS, that's going to be stuffing his nose ASAP and FAIL his next drug screen. The best thing to hope for is that the POS goes to prison and STAYS THERE!!!

[@janiecebatts4049]

He is so fair. In this case, he hated sending the man to jail over the holidays. He also wanted the defendant to realize there are consequences to lying to the court and to yourself. He is an amazing judge who cares about others.

[@missvickimae1150]

@@merlynshandley6337why, for a failed drug test? Does that make him a hardened criminal that needs prison time? I say no it doesn’t and I’m really sorry you do and maybe don’t understand addiction imo. ;)

[@pullupacuppa]

Simpson does disappointed parent so well

[@JulieMorales-kp4yc]

He is the best. Love him.

[@chadthatsall]

Judge knows how to read people and call BS when it matters. Love it.

[@tcurry1531]

I know, but then the man kept lying himself out the door. Maybe he is a sociopath who wouldn't know the truth if he fell over it.

[@nicholasdiaz9424]

I know huh? Then the lies just fall apart just like that.

[@GenX1968]

I can’t understand or imagine being so gripped with addiction from cocaine your addicted at his age. Horrific. I hope he gets help and listen to Judge Simpson.

[@bobbiec2829]

I love Judge Simpson's heart...it's always in the right place. He's firm yet caring. He's one of a kind ❤️

[@AlbinoWhiteGuy]

I completely agree, if ever go to court I’d be happy if he was the judge. But I still don’t plan on going to court 😂

[@slupot]

Judge Simpson for president, 2024!

[@tjdacatlady1920]

I love Judge Simpson. He knows the lengths addicts go to to deny,, deny they have a problem and the lies they think will help them. 😏 This judge is just so compassionate, empathic, etc. It is absolutely amazing. 👏 😍 🙌 👌 😉

[@jwolf5604]

I love how Judge Simpson walks people through their own crisis. He's my favorite

[@Jen12234]

Judge made me cry. What a wonderful man. I don't know how he keeps from being so cynical that he just doesn't give people 4th and 5th chances anymore. He seems to still believe, after all these years of DAILY exposure to the worst of us, that every individual has value. That's inspiring to me.

[@CreativelyShay]

Judge Simpson reminds me of so much of my late grandpa!! So full of wisdom and compassion, even his laughter and sternness if needed. He is awesome.🥰

[@LawTalkWithMike]

🤩

[@anovemberstar]

I have watched hundreds of these, but this is by far, the most powerful one I've seen. The time judge Simpson took with listening, and asking the man to be honest, and come up with his own sentence, incredibly powerful. I hope there's an update

[@bigfishbunny77]

I already loved Judge Simpson but this just put him on a whole other level. He is a f****** boss in his profession.

[@caninecodependent]

I can imagine the lessons that other defendants are gaining by witnessing the Judge's interaction. ❤

[@dianerobbins1285]

Don’t know how they can learn anything walking around during court. Very frustrating (& distracting)

[@huskylove8637]

Watched with My 37yo. Son... Judge Simpson touched him... still Thanking 💯🕊️ y'all's a Blessing... All have a great Holiday

[@aprilseering]

Such a FUN and WONDERFUL way to spend Thanksgiving! We're thankful for YOU, Mike!

[@LawTalkWithMike]

Thank You April

[@lauriedelorenzo7608]

Sorry I missed the live but I had a house full of family but I'm glad I can now finally relax with my favorite chat friends. Hope you all had a Blessed Thanksgiving.

[@mikegallegos7]

Judge Simpson; what a very decent man. Admirable to watch and listen.

[@lyndsayw5843]

OMG My favourite part was the judge at the end telling the guard that he was one of the things that he is thankful for. How sweet and just that little thing probably meant a lot. Too often people don't appreciate the people around them and this man did.

[@willcifur]

This clown doesn’t realize the grace and love Judge Simpson is taking the time to spend on him. The conversation taking place is the more than likely the last stop before a life is lost. It genuinely breaks my heart to see someone taking time to wrap a stranger up in the opposite of addiction. To be a judge is to have the ability to change lives when done correctly. Their interaction is everything you hope a justice system should be. LOVE YOU SIMPSON!!

[@arctain1]

The culture in general - and this guy specifically - is unaware that Grace means a loving and forgiving attitude towards someone that didn’t deserve the loving and forgiving attitude. At all. That, no matter what what this guy does, his actions are commingled with pain and destruction (self or otherwise); nevertheless, Grace sets the banquet table and welcomes the prodigal with open and loving arms. If this guy - and culture in general - understood this, he would fall on his knees crying and profusely thank Judge Simpson for the Grace shown. Grace doesn’t overlook the crime and the destruction. It doesn’t accept the bad behavior. It calls it wrong and abhorrent. And then it says, I love you, I will help you.

[@willcifur]

@@arctain1 I mean .. you nailed it. You’re response begins and ends in love and compassion. It’s really hard to remain forgiving … like it really is. I mean genuine forgiveness that allows a burdened heart relief and perspective. If you ever see genuine love from someone who has no obligation to do so mannnnn .. it makes the knees buckle. It’s hard to choose things like understanding and suspend judgement but you are absolutely correct that it’s most direct way forward. it’s the only way to transcend the pain and counterbalance the void. I’m an atheist but I have been finding myself on the side of people with faith in the last two years lol

[@arctain1]

@@willcifur - thanks. I really wasn’t talking about faith, or even the belief in a benevolent God, though if there was a God that calls Himself Good, I would think He would be an enemy of man - considering how wickedness permeates all that we touch and think. It’s kind of like Nature. When we set aside all the erroneous romantic notions of Nature, and really look at what is ‘natural’, we soon are confronted with a harsh Nature, red in tooth and claw (as Tennyson put it), trying to kill us, and all that lives, at every opportunity. Nature is not our ‘friend’. The ‘natural’ is out to draw blood, to squash and kill the weaker and exploit them until we ourselves succumb to nature’s unending scythe. But if we were to talk of God, being Good …for who can imagine a wholly ‘Bad’ God? A God who encourages, if not rewards, vice and malice and hate and evil? That goes against the very fiber of all that we think, doesn’t it? Isn’t that why we see grace and honor and bravery and selflessness, as qualities to ascribe? Isn’t it because we know - in the very fiber of out being, beyond all knowledge of Nature and ourselves - that Goodness exists and is something that is NOT natural to ourselves. That when we see it - like you so eloquently put it - is something to buckle the knees. If we are being honest with ourselves we know that, like Nature, a Good God would NOT LIKE - abhor, is probably a better word - the works of man. That mankind is so ‘not good’ that even mankind’s acts of kindness and love are mixed with selfishness and evil. So much so that were we to be confronted with Pure Goodness it would scare us, shame us, make us exceedingly afraid - make us want to run as far away as we can and hide under the biggest rock. That there would be no confronting Goodness - even though we have a concept of it - without being burned up with the bright light of what we would, without doubt, call Holiness.

[@carolynfine3296]

Amen

[@JohnMichaelson]

Judges Simpson and Middleton are treasures I hope their constituents appreciate as much as we do listening to these streams. They both care about peoples' situations and spend time trying to get them on the right path and don't just robotically dispense rulings. Simpson's landlord-tenant matters really fly in comparison to Middleton's though. He has so many to get through in an average day.

[@covrtdesign5279]

Judge Simpson is a BEAST! What a phenomenal moment. I hope this guy gets help because he is struggling badly.

"When's the last time you used?" "Four days ago... Three days ago... What's todays date? Wednesday, it was Monday." That is horrifying. He's so muddled he's struggling to remember when something was that was 2 days ago. Hopefully he can clear his head, but I doubt it given he's still using despite knowing he's going to be tested for it.

[@lukehorning3404]

I have a lot of love and respect for this judge and we need many many more like him

The most important reason for hiring a attorney, at least in Detroit: The court deals with your case first as a professional courtesy to your lawyer. You're outta there quickly instead of getting stuck somewhere on a very long list. Worth the fee!

The Judge talks 100 mph.💬💨 BTW: You and that coffee ☕️ cup are joined at the hip.😊 The defendant that has 9 kids & a $100K bond needs a cup of your special Java Blend!🥃My Bad➡️☕️ Lastly: Lady hits someone with a brick 🧱(Yes, there are more bricks) & tried to run them over with a car 🚗... now she wants to cry 😢 Wow, what a lineup!😆 Thanx Mike!👍😎

[@SarahLovesBoobahandErEr]

God, Judge Simpson is so patient with these people. My judge was a hard ass and mean as hell. My first and only violation cost me 3 months. THEN, due to a faulty drug test in court, I was jailed for 43 days!!! Once the court realized their mistake I was released without an apology. Nothing. I wish ALL judges were like Judge Simpson.

[@huskylove8637]

💯 they think 🤔 they're helping but they're snot...

[@carolynfine3296]

How true

[@jfraserfisher]

It depends how much the girlfriend knows, are they long term partners or is she knew to this? Did he tell her he had made the calls? A lot do enable thinking they are helping and I get that and I also try to see the gf side where he might be lying to her and unless you really understand drug addiction and him he would be able to gaslight her.

[@Canuckshaw]

Judge, "I'm not as stupid as I look." Defendant, "I know, judge." That statement was not intended to get a response as it's negative any way you might respond. You do have the right to remain silent. That would have been a better option.

[@cherietillapaughhott1012]

What a wonderful and kind and gentle and compassionate spirit Judge Simpson has. Addicts are so difficult to deal with (been married to one for 22 years, he's fine now but it's been a rough road), but they are also people who probably started using because of trauma, to numb the pain, but continue using after becoming addiction, and to numb the feelings of guilt and shame, and lie about it because they are both embarrassed and ultimately don't want to be told that they must stop. It's such an ugly and painful cycle for everyone involved in the orbit of the addict, and extremely painful and humiliating and frustrating for the addict himself. It seems simple to non addicts: just don't get high. But "simple" is not the same as "easy." The act of starting an engine is easy: you turn the key. But it's not actually simple: several things must happen in a chain of events for the engine to start. Conversely, it's a simple task to remain sober: don't drink the alcohol, don't smoke the joint, don't snort the line. It's a simple thing to *not* do something. But for an addict, it's not as easy as that. It's extremely hard to just stop. Usually, it's going to require an outside force to restrict access and force sobriety. An addict will end up in 1 of 3 places: in recovery, in an institution (jail/prison), or in a pine box.

[@missb5982]

Happy Thanksgiving Handsome. I see the latest resounding excuse is covid. That's why I didn't go to be tested and when I did I tested positive for cocaine and that's why I didn't do community service etc etc etc. I had covid and I'm still not feeling right 😂
