‘”The First Thing We Do, Let’s Eat All the Lawyers.” –paraphrasing ”Henry VI,” Part II, ..

NY Post:

Claw and order.

Multiple people were rushed to a hospital in India on Wednesday after a bloodthirsty leopard went on the attack inside a courthouse.

Eyewitnesses at the Ghaziabad District Court in Uttar Pradesh State say the spotted predator appeared “out of nowhere” before it began mauling those inside the building.

Several lawyers, a police officer and a boot polisher were clawed by the creature, according to Jam Press.

“The leopard was first seen under the stairs in the court building,” one witness told local media. “On seeing the people, the leopard ran from there. It pounced on the people and started running.”

The boot polisher was reported to have sustained the most severe injuries, with his condition described as “serious.”

The wild cat also mauled at least four lawyers, with one ravaged by the beast while trying to fend it off with a shovel and a stick.

The shocking incident was caught on camera, with the frightening footage showing the leopard with blood around its mouth as it snarls.

Ambulance crews quickly arrived on the scene, as did a 12-person team from the local forest department who were tasked with capturing the creature.

The leopard was eventually detained.

“The leopard was eventually detained.”

Detained? Has it demanded an attorney?

The verdict is in: Spotted leopard trumps black swan.

I know that the boot polisher is literal a guy who polishes shoes and boots, but I can’t help thinking of it as the “nice-ified” version of bootlicker (itself, a euphemism for “a** kisser.”)

So the idea of an a** kisser hanging around a courtroom is… amusing.

(I do hope the boot polisher survives and returns to good health.)
