Courtroom Drama

Courtroom Drama
Tragic Local Courtroom Drama plays out in Chicago
Chicago , IL (AP)

A seven-year old boy was at the center of a Cook
County court room drama yesterday when he challenged a
court ruling over who should have custody of him. The
boy has a history of being beaten by his parents and
the judge initially awarded custody to his aunt, in
keeping with child custody law and regulation
requiring that family unity be maintained to the
highest degree possible.

The boy surprised the court when he proclaimed that
his aunt beat him more than his parents and he
adamantly refused to live with her. When the judge
then suggested that he live with his grandparents, the
boy cried and said that they also beat him. After
considering the remainder of the immediate family and
learning that domestic violence was apparently a way
of life among them, the judge took the unprecedented
step of allowing the boy to propose who should have
custody of him.

After two recesses to check legal references and
confer with the child welfare officials, the judge
granted temporary custody to the Chicago Cubs, whom
the boy firmly believes are not capable of beating
anyone.

Crabby, this is very sad but also interesting. Don't the Chicago Cubs have to agree to this?
