Several readers sent along a link to a Daytona News Journal story about Tammy Sytch's court hearing on 6/30.
According to the article, Sytch told Judge Karen Foxman, who is presiding over her criminal case that Sytch's fiance James Pente was working on acquiring another defense attorney for her, but until then Sytch was asking for a public defender.
When Foxman asked Assistant State Attorney Ashley Terwilleger if she had spoken with Pente (who had been present at the hearing but left the court), the following exchange happened:
“He didn't approach me, but he spoke to me, not surprisingly, as I was passing by,” Terwilleger responded.
“What did he say?” Foxman asked.
“He called me a dirty (expletive), among other things that I didn't fully catch,” Terwilleger said.
Judge Foxman told Sytch to relay a warning to Pente, telling Sytch, "So you understand ma'am, if you want him to be present in court, this kind of behavior is absolutely unacceptable and I will not allow him to be present if he's going to disrupt proceedings or be inappropriate or unprofessional or threatening in any manner. So if you talk to him, you let him know that this could rise to the level of contempt of court and if he were to do something like that, I would go into proceedings to see if I would sanction him for his behavior at the courthouse."
Pente did not respond to the newspaper's request for comment.
