“30 years ago I beat up 5 police officers. I had just gotten out of the US army; don’t know what I was thinking. I must have been only 145 Lbs., but I was really strong. I don’t know how your father did it, but he got the judge to drop the charges!!
He asked the judge “Although my client was completely wrong, how were 5 of Baltimore City’s finest not able to restrain one 145 lbs. man? These charges are an embarrassment to the city”
Years later my son got into some trouble with the law. Your father sat him down in his office, looked him straight in the eye’s and said “Son, I will make sure you don’t see one minute of jail time if you promise to straighten out your way”. His day in court came and just like your father said, he did not see one minute. Of course it did help that your father was friends with the judge that day!! Unfortunately, that son could not stay out of trouble, wound up in jail.
Now here we are in 2011 and my grandson Jamal is a current client of your fathers. When your father passed I called up all my boys and told them “Mr. Goodman is not here no more, we are all going to have to straighten up. No one that can save us anymore” What are we going to do?”
