New Police Judge
Begins Crdck-D Down
On Speed Kings"

The new Police Judge, the.
Hon. William Moorhead, sit.
ting for the first time in Chris
tiansted yesterday morning
began a breakdown on what
IS known as speed kings and
violators of traffic laws.
One Of the first to feel the
judicial hand was Justine
Santana, who was charged
wi TIL driving at excessive
speed. He was fined SO. and
his license suspended for three
months. Eric Brown was hand
ed a S.. fine on a similar
charge. Joaquin Parrella was
fined $500 for driving without
tail lights. Iii another case
Joseph Ford was fined $15. for
assaulting a IA year old school
girl.
Indications are that not only
traffic violators, but those
who delight in the use Of foul
language on the public streets,
bathing at the Lagoon without
bathing suits, will be sternly
dealt with in future.
