NY judge escorted out in handcuffs, smiles during arrest

NY judge escorted out in handcuffs, smiles during arrest: A New York judge is facing jail time for missing a court appearance related to an August drunk driving arrest, and she’s apparently happy about it.

The judge, Leticia Astacio, was beaming as she happily greeted reporters waiting for her at the fifth floor elevator bank of the Monroe County Hall of Justice as officers led her to be at the nearby Rochester Public Safety Building.

The past year has been a bit of a rollercoaster for Astacio, who was arrested in Feb. 2016 for suspicion of drunk driving, and in August was sentenced to conditional discharge until Feb. 2018 after she admitted to violating the no drinking and driving conditions of her discharge.
