Inmate Falls Into Judge's Chambers (D'oh!)

DECATUR, Ga. (AP) -- An inmate found himself before a judge sooner than he expected when he fell through the courthouse ceiling into the judge's chambers while trying to escape, police said.

Ben N. Rogozensky, 31, was one of about a dozen inmates awaiting hearings Monday when he was taken to the empty jury room to speak with his attorney.

The inmate asked to go into the adjacent restroom and from there climbed into the ceiling crawl space, DeKalb County sheriff's spokeswoman Mikki Jones said.

State Court Judge J. Antonio DelCampo was in the courtroom when the barefoot Rogozensky fell through the ceiling and landed near the judge's desk in his chambers.

A technician who was fixing the judge's computer called for security officers, who grabbed Rogozensky in the hallway. Rogozensky was arrested Sept. 2 and charged with obstruction of officers and giving false information.

Exactly what first came to my mind.

When John Bender fell through the ceiling of the library.
