Chances are that if the woman suddenly decides to be humble, that the terms will be reduced, as that is what oftentimes happens in situations like this (and also that is what happened in the 6 month ago instance of a woman smarting off to the judge).
The problem ultimately is that people need to learn to control their emotions, and I'd bet anything that this lady's emotions going out of control are what led her to assault the grandfather in the first place.

Nobody has perfect control over their emotions and what limited control we do have is learned. All people need to be taught how to, and encouraged to form good habits, the learned virtues, including judges as well as forum posters.
Look around and tell me you don't see at least half the forum expressing either joy or indifference at the suffering of others. We shouldn't be cheering when "some thug" receives "some just end" or the like. It's still an unfortunate situation all round.
In this case some contempt sentence was certainly in order, but the judge behaved inappropriately by ignoring her incontinence. I'm convinced the people arguing otherwise are either fundamentally mean spirited or else not much smarter than this woman is.
Justice should be impartial. It's not for entertainment. Some kind of feeling of satisfaction may be quite natural in certain cases, but there's no need to jump up and down gleefully. Maybe sometimes people do deserve to "be put down" as some people like to put it, but why the parade?
OK then let me ask you this: Should people be forced to behave themselves in court?

Yes, of course.
The real question is: What will a 300-day contempt sentence accomplish that a 30-day sentence would not have?
Well, since after receiving the 30-day sentence, she continued acting out, I think that the longer sentence *might* get her to realize that she doesn't have carte blanche to say whatever she wants AFTER being held in contempt.
Some of the more "liberal" views within this thread are truly amazing. If certain posters within this thread ran the show civil society (as we have known it) would collapse.
Those very same people would find that to be a good thing.
Not her fault at all, the justice system is stacked against her and that judge is racist.
the odds of her actually serving the 300 days is nil. most likely after a few he will talk to her and IF she apologizes she will be free.

coming from someone who has as his signature the nearly 400-year-old, thoroughly discredit, idiotic, and intellectually dishonest pascal's wager. People like you are why we don't have a civil society.
In the future PLEASE refrain from posting while taking your meds and being drunk.
Also, aren't ou from Central Europe? What weight does your opinion have on society in the US? You are aware that this happened in the United States?
What a moron ...
No doubt he's a previously banned user's sock puppet.
The Judge does not have 'sole power'. A judge works within the law, and it binds their actions. Such laws are the product of democratically elected officials.
If you take exception with a law it is not undeard of to seek its repeal, there are many methods of doing so.
Good luck, I imagine it will be a tough sale.
Do not let the no solicitation signs, disinterested householders, and inevitable hysterical laughter daunt you. You are a visionary.
She wouldn't have any days if she was able to control herself.
Is asking people to control themselves really considered power tripping? She kept egging the judge on, so he kept piling on the sentence. Anybody with half a brain would have realized after the first contempt of court that "hey I need to keep my mouth shut now or it will get worse".
Why do you think that people like this have so much hate?
Not her fault at all, the justice system is stacked against her and that judge is racist.
