In this judge’s defense, his honor may not spend much time perusing the gossip columns or watching reality television.
A confused judge allegedly had to ask during a court session — what a “thot” is — as a businessman stood trial for the groping a woman at a Christmas party per the Daily Mail.
Valentin Krzyzyk, 27, had spent over £6,000 on Dom Perignon with friends at the Cirque Le Soir club in Soho, central London, when he was alleged to have lifted his victim’s skirt and grabbed her bottom, on December 20 last year.
However, waiter Labinot Citaku told the court Krzyzyk said he thought the woman was a ‘thot’, which stands for ‘That Ho Over There’.
He said: ‘I asked him what had happened and he was telling me that a girl came and stole his drinks on his table.
‘He lifted up her skirt, groped her bum and showed her what she should feel like.
‘I don’t know the word – it is what we call a thot, a table w****.’
According to court reports — Judge Michael Bromley-Martin was taken aback by the statement — requesting a offical definition.
‘Could we just go back to this thot thing. What was this thot?’
Mr Citaku replied: ‘In clubs I work in girls tend to go onto customers tables to have drinks with them, especially the people that buy a lot of drinks.
These are what people call ‘table thots,’ ‘table w*****,’ – where they see lots of drinks going to a table, the girls tend to follow the champagne bottles.’
Like every bad thing that happens in this world today — the use of the term “thot” can be blamed on rap and hip hop music per certain media outlets.
