NOVI, Mich. -  A decision has not yet been made on possible disciplinary action against a Novi magistrate who suggested to an underage drinker that he commit suicide.

Holtz had told Michael Robert Dickey of Farmington Hills that it would be cheaper, faster and less painful for the people who cared about him if he took his own life.

Court transcripts obtained by WXYZ-TV in Detroit show Holtz suggested Dickey jump from the roof of his house or slash his wrists as she chastised the 20-year-old for a third charge involving alcohol. He was being sentenced for being a minor in possession.

Only in England right? lol

Is this supposed to be sarcastic, because I honestly can't tell.

It says right in the topic, Novi, Michigan, which is in the USA. If you'd have cared to follow the link, it would have confirmed it.

So, only in the USA right?


an english judge would have been snappier about it
