Chaos in the Courtroom

Just hours after a jury in Santa Maria, California acquitted Michael Jackson on all charges in his fourteen-week child molestation trial, all eyes were turned to the proceedings in the dugout at Jackie Robinson Stadium where, in Judge Buss's Kan-Gear-roo Court, Philip Johnson was found guilty on one count of failing to know the number of outs while running the bases. Johnson, who had three hits, two stolen bases, and six RBIs in the game against the Santa Monica B team, exploded on hearing the verdict, as the following photo shows.

In spite of his conviction, Johnson left the dugout a free man, although carrying a heavy load.
