Ohio Judge Michael Cicconetti offered defendant Diamond Gaston a choice between serving 30 days in jail or being pepper-sprayed by victim Frantz Rolles. She chose the latter.
A woman who pepper sprayed a Burger King worker faced a judge known for his unusual sentences on Thursday.
“It hurt. It burned. It stung. It was scary at first because I didn’t think I was gonna get my eyesight back,” said worker Frantz Rolles.
Painesville Judge Michael Cicconetti warned Diamond Gaston, who was charged with assault:
“You understand that this is a criminal offense, an assault. I could put you in jail for six months.”
Known for his creative sentencing, he gave Gaston a choice of 30 days in prison, or get pepper sprayed like her victim.
