Middle Finger Lands Man In Jail
Middle Finger Lands Man In Jail
November 23, 2010 11:34 PM

SACRAMENTO (CBS13) — A local man is facing charges of violating a restraining order after flipping the bird to his wife, according to authorities.

Paul Bechtel gave the rude gesture to his soon-to-be-ex-wife Rebecca during a recent appearance in a Sacramento County family court, but although the sentiment didn’t surprise her, she said the end result did.

“He went up, talked to the bailiff, turned around and flipped me off,” Rebecca said. “And was arrested.”

Deputies placed him in cuffs for violating a restraining order against him that called for no communication with Rebecca. Giving someone the finger, authorities said, is a form of communication.

3. I don't think it is too presumptuous to opine that Mr. Bechtel may have poor impulse control.
He may want to look into that.
