Judge Glazer responded, “I’m sorry to see you there. I always wondered what happened to you, sir.”
Booth continued to say “oh my goodness,” with his head in his hands, as Glazer added: “This was the nicest kid in middle school. He was the best kid in middle school. I used to play football with him. All the kids. And look what has happened. I’m so sorry to see you there.”
“Mr. Booth, I hope you’re able to change your ways. Good luck to you.” She added, “What’s sad is how old we’ve become.”
As Booth wiped the tears from his eyes, she concluded: “Good luck to you, sir. I hope you’re able to come out of this OK and just lead a lawful life.”
Booth was allegedly seen leaving the scene of a burglary in Hialeah on June 29, and police said he failed to pull over for a traffic stop, WSVN reported.
The police report for the incident said: “Mr. Booth drove his vehicle onto the median and drove onto the oncoming traffic lanes. Mr. Booth then bailed from his vehicle.”
His bond was set at $43,000 for a handful of charges, according to WSVN. An online database shows burglary was one of the charges against him.
