Had a guy on a couple of dope charges. He did some of his business while working the door at a Tarrant County nudy bar. Book- in lists him as 5'8' and 295 with green eyes and a bald head. His nickname was BUDDA - - - He had the real Budda's face tattooed on his big belly.

My defendant's nickname, which I've mentioned before in this thread, was Worm. As in Big Worm, the Crack Dealer in the movie Friday.

My officer referenced the nickname and said that the defendant resembled certain physical characteristics of the character in the movie.

The judge thought the officer was speaking about the defendant's genitalia and got hot when I referred to the defendant as 'Worm'.

Though I didn't get the chance to clarify the importance of the moniker, the jury found him guilty of Agg. Assault today in less than half an hour of deliberations.

Defendant's aka: "Butter"
The judge asked him if he melts when it's hot?
I don't think the Defendant thought it was all that funny.

When booking a local young, blonde pretty boy for possession with intent, the sheriff asked if he had any other aliases besides "Buttercup", as several inmates had identified him on their trip to booking. He looked at the sheriff, seriously, and said, "I think I've outgrown 'Buttercup', and since 'Tater Salad' and 'Tater Tot' are taken, I want to be 'Mashed Taters'." The sheriff promptly recorded "Mashed Taters" after "Buttercup".

Just recieved notice of a grievance that contains many unkind references to my character. Love the above name that he says is fitting!!!Sounds somewhat fuedal? My husband will love it too.Wonder where it had its beginnings.

iron maiden
n.
A medieval instrument of torture consisting of an iron frame in the form of a person in which the victim was enclosed and impaled on interior spikes.


The heavy metal 80's hair band "Iron Maiden" took its name from this gruesome device. Also See: Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure.

Does that mean he drives someone else's sports car and lives in their guest house?

It seems we forget to occasionally nickname our own members here. Mr. Brumley/Mr. Bradley, is there a fellow poster on this forum to whom the name "BANJO" would be an appropriate moniker?

Are you referring to our esteemed colleague who is known to cavort with the Shagnasty twins over in Hogwaller County?

And maybe this thread will draw him out, he's been fairly quiet for the past few weeks...

I just wrapped up my first trial involving many nicknames. The witnesses were:

Peanut, Duke, Frog, Tiger, Junebug, Ice Man, Trick and Tater. Tater's sister, Butta, did not testify.

I heard of a 1st Assistant named "Snake Eye"...not sure what county it was though.

I also heard of a aggravated sexual assault of a child prosecuted in Waller County before my time where the bad guy traveled around the county on his bicycle...who came to be known as...you guessed it...the "Pedal-file."

It is worth noting the excellent conviction and life sentence of "Booger Red" Kelly in Smith County last week.

And his nickname as well.

I have heard a certain Williamson County prosecutor referred to as "Pitbull."

Janette

For some unknown reason, my cousin always calls me "Mogillus." I have no idea where he got that
name. It's helpful if you can't find a good name for internet purposes.

We have a prosecutor that one judge nicknamed "the knife." The judge said, "he's this quiet guy, but then you look down and there's this knife sticking in you and you're wondering where it came from . . ."

I once tried a lady named Teresa Jean Jeanes. She names her son Levi. I've prosecuted him too.

I've also handled 2 generations of people named Prince Albert (editions II and III).

Are they in the can now? (Sorry )

Of course, now that I think of it, the above might also be a pretty good nickname. However, Corey Miller seemed to have picked a particularly stoopid nickname of C-Murder. Three guesses as to what the charges were.

Here's the rest of the story.
