Boner Candidate #2: EMBARRASSING, HUMILIATING, MORTIFYING
In Wasatch County, Utah, a woman named Louise Kingston was pulled over for allegedly being under the influence. Kingston is considered disabled by the government because of her lack to be able to control her bladder and bowels due to her having stage 4 pelvic organ prolapse. When Kingston was pulled over then arrested, she asked the officer if she could use the bathroom. She was told she could at the police station, and the officer put a tarp down in their backseat for Kingston. Even when brought to the police station, Kingston was still not given a bathroom. “I just laid on the first cell floor just in tears. I can’t wait,” said Kingston. When she was eventually taken to the bathroom, it was painful.

Boner Candidate #3: THE BLING BISHOP
A Brooklyn, New York bishop by the name of Bishop Lamor Whitehead, has been alleged to have lied to his church and steal money from parishioners. “During this trial, you’ll learn that the defendant was trusted by many in his community. He was the bishop of a small church in Brooklyn and a self-described businessman. He was a friend to the mayor of New York City. The defendant abused that trust by lying again and again. He lied about how much money he had. He lied about his business plans. And he lied about having influence with powerful people. All with the goal of getting money and property to fund his extravagant lifestyle,” said Assistant U.S. Attorney Jessica Greenwood.
