Nope this judge with her pants down had to well go peeing in public.
With her town official husband who then was wrestled to the ground while trying to prevent cops from questioning her, according to officials. Yes this took place in Yavapai County.
As Superior Court Judge Pro Tempore Kristyne Schaaf-Olson, 42, was seen scrambling to get out of shrubbery as cops arrived around 1:30 a.m. on Oct. 4 in Prescott, according to the video obtained by Fox 10. Officers were called by several witnesses who saw the judge urinating in public, the police report said. In the body camera footage, she is heard emphasizing her official title.
"At minimum you're getting a ticket," an officer said. "That’s fine. I want to let you know, my name is Judge Krystine Olson," she stated. The report also said several witnesses walked by minutes earlier and waved the officer down after they saw the judge urinating. The Bodycam taken by an officer who asked if the judge and her husband were visiting, to which another officer replied, "I have no idea. She's useless. She can't even spell her name."
"Alright, this is your citation. It's a misdemeanor for urinating or defecating in public, okay? So, you're gonna have to sign it, promising to appear in court in about a month, all right? Your husband's gonna be transported to the Yavapai County Jail. He'll be booked in there," an officer is heard saying in the footage.

Schaaf-Olson’s pre-trial conference is set for Dec. 16, while Jason Olson’s pre-trial conference is on Nov. 18. “This is disgusting,” the responding cop told Schaaf-Olson, who was so drunk she couldn’t even spell her own name, but was quick to point out that she was a judge, the affidavit said. “This is unacceptable,” the cop told her. Schaaf-Olson’s husband, Jason Olson the parks and recreation manager for the Town of Chino Valley came over to pull away his wife, repeatedly ignoring the cops’ orders to leave her, the video shows.
