A hardline judge has fined and ridiculed a 72-year-old Michigan man with lymphoma, ruling that he “should be ashamed” of being too weak to mow his overgrown lawn.
Burhan Chowdhury of Hamtramck, a community about six miles north of Detroit, admittedly fell behind in yard maintenance after he was diagnosed with cancer of the lymph nodes in 2019. His overgrown property prompted local officials to subpoena Chowdhury.
In now-viral footage of the Zoom court hearing on Jan. 10, Chowdhury’s breathing appeared labored as Judge Alexis G. Krot of the 31st District Court berated him. “You should be ashamed of yourself,” says Krot, in a video shared Jan. 12 on social media, and viewed more than 37,500 times as of Thursday morning. “If I could give you jail time on this, I would.”

“…For years, Shibbir helped his struggling father around the house, but had been in Bangladesh for three months prior to Chowdhury’s citation on Aug. 2….”

The son needs to get off his dead ass and help his dad. That overgrowth is a hell of a lot more than 3 months worth and Aug 2nd is over 5 months ago.
Isn’t Hamtramck 100% Muslim now? I guess they don’t help their neighbors. This man has a Muslim name, I think.
Just looked it up. Most people with that name are from Bangladesh, which is majority Muslim.
The extent to which people help each other out in North Idaho is truly wonderful. People are all the time thanking others for helping them with chores, removing snow, getting their cars unstuck, buying them coffee at the kiosks. The local supermarkets bag up groceries for the needy and you can buy the bag for $20. I frequently do that when I’m shopping — you just pay for the bag and they set it aside for their assistance to the community. There’s so much community spirit there!
In Detroit houses are rotting and places are returning back to a state of nature because of the Marxism there.
If I still had my 20ac Nursery/Garden Center/Landscape Contracting Business (23yrs), I dispatch two 4man crews over there to get it done in 1 day. Damn shame.
If I were that guy..as soon as I am able.
I’d seriously consider moving out of that town.
This headline and story showed up in the list RIGHT AFTER a headline from the Babylon Bee. At first I couldn’t determine which was real and which was satire.
He’s Bangladeshi.
Their son’s job had transferred him off shore for several months at the time the infraction occurred. Before that the son had been doing the lawn and garden work for his parents. They could not keep up with the chores while he was overseas. Don’t berate the son for not flying home on weekends from several continents away to do lawn work.
Sad that it had to be a random passerby and not the actual neighbors in your linked video. From the video, the neighbor he talked to knew the owner had been laid up after a stroke but was unwilling to help out.
I can’t be the only one that agrees with the judge. This isn’t “not mowing”, it’s a total disgrace. Guy is turning the neighborhood into Bangladesh.
But this is the best thing to happen to the family— they’ll get thousands in go fund me donations.
Dearborn and Hamtramck are almost 100% now. Both look and smell like the 3rd/4th world. Decades ago, the residents used to work at Ford/GM/Chrysler factories; that’s pretty much all gone now.
I’d bet there are terrorist cells hiding in those muzzie(SPIT!) populations, and that’s where our next 911 will come from.
He is probably from India.
The judge should be thrown into jail, instead.
Judge(?)Krot, is a FEMINAZI.
If she would give 2 days off a minor
jail sentence for a day cleaning the old man’s yard, she
would be more humane!
His neighbors are not very neighborly.
"Wouldn't a neighbor mow his lawn for him, if he was sick?"
Seems like that is whom the judge should say is shameful, if they knew and could help.
