Yep, That's A Lawyer Having Sex On Camera During A Hearing!

No exaggeration here.

Yesterday’s Morning Docket included a relatively understated item about a Peruvian lawyer being reprimanded for having sex on camera during a hearing in the case of a violent gang known as Los Z de Chanchamayo. This struck us as deserving of further inquiry because (a) a lot of activity can look like someone having sex, but often it’s just a viewer’s overactive imagination and (b) while inviting an illicit distraction during a home owners’ association meeting is understandable, proceedings against a gang would presumably keep an attorney’s interest long enough to keep it holstered. After reviewing the tape… nope, that’s pretty clearly sex and nope, this wasn’t interesting enough to keep these two from getting it on.

The video here is, I suppose, marginally NSFW. There’s no frontal nudity, but there’s not a lot of imagination needed.

UPDATE: The original raw video footage is gone. Here’s a news report with the relevant scenes)

So many questions! What’s up with that angle? One assumes Robles thought he was out of frame when he kicked off the festivities, but why is he employing a wide-angle shot in the first place. Zoom is the place for extreme close-ups, not Terrence Malick tributes.

Per the Post:

Robles completely stripped off, then started kissing an equally naked woman who soon straddled him, according to video that went viral on Twitter.

The outraged judge, John Chachua Torres, immediately called a halt to proceedings — ripping Robles for having “disrespected the dignity” of the court, Todo Noticias said.

“This lawyer has lacked the honor and dignity of the profession,” the judge said.

“Immediately,” you say? Because this seems to go on for quite a while. Is no one else using the Gallery View?

And if you’re a violent gang and your name’s entire Google footprint becomes “lawyer bones on camera during hearing” you have to pack it in and pick a new name, right? There’s no coming back from this sort of reputational hijacking.
