A Georgia Superior Court Judge was arrested for drunk driving after he backed his Mercedes into a truck in the parking lot of Wacko’s Gentlemen’s Club early Tuesday morning.
48-year-old Robert Guy Jr. was arrested and booked on Friday after he backed his Mercedes into a Ford F-150 and then offered the owner of the truck $500 to avoid giving his identity and insurance information, according to the arrest report obtained by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
Guy tried to drive off, but he couldn’t because he was too intoxicated.
According to the arrest report, Guy was slurring his words, and police could smell a strong odor of alcohol on him.
After repeatedly refusing to hand over his ID, Guy was arrested at the strip club and charged with DUI, failing to submit to a breathalyzer, and DUI-property damage.
The Sheriff’s Department did not released Guy’s booking photo because of his status as a judge.
Guy reported his arrest to Georgia’s Judicial Qualifications Commission and then resigned.
“It has been a distinct honor and privilege to serve the Council of Superior Court Judges as President and in other roles; however, today I am resigning effectively immediately as Council President,” Guy wrote in a statement, according to the AJC.
The New York Post reported:
One of Georgia’s most senior judges has been arrested for alleged drunk driving after a fender bender outside a Florida strip club called Wacko’s.
Robert “Bert” Guy Jr., 48, resigned as president of Georgia’s Council of Superior Court Judges on Friday, days after his arrest just across state lines in Jacksonville.
The Superior Court judge allegedly backed his Mercedes-Benz into a Ford F-150 in the strip club’s parking at 3 a.m. Tuesday — then offered the other driver $500 to avoid exchanging information, alerting him to his powerful position, according to an arrest report obtained by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
The judge then attempted to drive away — but “was unable to do so as he appeared highly intoxicated,” a parking valet told police.
Guy was escorted back inside Wacko’s Gentlemen’s Club, where employees “kept a watchful eye on him,” the affidavit said.
