The judge has lost patience with this fellow. Actually the whole region has. So since he had refused to follow the judge's orders the judge put him in jail. Not big news but it is if you happen to be a billionaire, as Moroun is.
The billionaire became inmate No. 12-981, having lost his battle with a judge.
Ambassador Bridge owner Manuel (Matty) Moroun and top aide Dan Stamper traded in business suits for green prisoner's garb Thursday on their first day in Wayne County jail for civil contempt of court.
Their Thursday evening appeal was denied by a three-judge panel of the Michigan Court of Appeals. That means the pair will stay in jail at least until the court hears further arguments, if any are made, or if the Wayne County judge who put them there relents.
Just like other inmates, the two were offered chicken-fried steak for dinner. Their mug shots were taken, and the two shared a 10-by-15-foot cell in an isolated wing.
There's little privacy, with no door on the bathroom inside the cell in a section that also housed former Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, among other notable inmates....
"When the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies but the pack survives." Winter is Coming Now this is the Law of the Jungle—as old and as true as the sky; And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die. As the creeper that girdles the tree-trunk, the Law runneth forward and back; For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.
