We really need more judges like him. hehe, he is one of my customers at work and I talked to him for a half hour earlier in the year. He was a nice guy but I seriously never will mess up in P'Ville


PAINESVILLE -- When it came right down to it, spending time in a chicken suit seemed like a better idea than 20 days in jail for three men convicted of soliciting prostitutes.
Friday night, Daniel Chapdelaine, Martin Soto and Fabian Ramirez served out their "chicken sentence." Each took their turn inside the bright yellow costume. They also had to carry a sign that read: No Chicken Ranch in Painesville.
The sentence was the idea of Judge Michael Cicconetti.
He says the sign and the costume refer to the "World Famous Chicken Ranch" a prostitution house in Nevada where sex for money is legal. Cicconetti says he was inspired by the idea after watching the comedy film "The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas."
The three defendants pleaded guilty to soliciting sex from a prostitute, who turned out to be an undercover Painesville police officer.
Chicken is good!
