When you think about courthouses and acts of rebelliousness, you rarely associate them with cockroaches.

The woman who committed this arb act was charged for many counts, which included; tampering with physical evidence, disorderly conduct, obstructing governmental administration, resisting arrest, and second-degree criminal contempt.
