hmmmm. At first I thought the judge wanted to administer the spanking... that would have been at the very least odd and probably sexual.

But that not being the case its a perfectly sound punishment.... in the privacy of ones home IMO.

I think that judge is a smart cookie. They need to leave him alone while he straightens out some young lives.
