“Oh, of course,” Durham told the defendant. “You know, you look like a queer.”

“Well, okay,” Allen said. “So now you’re calling me a queer in the courtroom.”

“I didn’t call you one,” Durham said. “I said you looked like one.”

Durham then sentenced Allen to 20 days for contempt and said if he said anything else, he’d add another 20 days for everything else he said.

“Fuck you,” Allen said.

“Forty days,” Durham ordered.

“Fuck you again,” Allen said.

“Sixty,” said Durham.

“Go fuck yourself,” Allen said.

“A year,” Durham said.

“Your mama,” Allen said.

“Ten years,” Durham ordered.

“suck my dick,” Allen replied.

Allen began talking about parts of his anatomy and how he liked to have sex with “boys.”

“Oh, of course,” Durham told the defendant. “You know, you look like a queer.”

“Well, okay,” Allen said. “So now you’re calling me a queer in the courtroom.”

So, he's not wrong.

He obviously got very aggravated and offended, he shouldn't lose his job over this or anything.

However, since he did imply his decision would be biased, a different judge should preside over the case.
