Judge fines cancer patient for overgrown lawn: ‘I’d give jail time if I coul

A hardline judge has fined and ridiculed a 72-year-old Michigan man with lymphoma, ruling that he “should be ashamed” of being too weak to mow his overgrown lawn.

Burhan Chowdhury of Hamtramck, a community about six miles north of Detroit, admittedly fell behind in yard maintenance after he was diagnosed with cancer of the lymph nodes in 2019. His overgrown property prompted local officials to subpoena Chowdhury.

In now-viral footage of the Zoom court hearing on Jan. 10, Chowdhury’s breathing appeared labored as Judge Alexis G. Krot of the 31st District Court berated him.

“You should be ashamed of yourself,” says Krot, in a video shared Jan. 12 on social media, and viewed more than 37,500 times as of Thursday morning. “If I could give you jail time on this, I would.”

“You’ve got to get that cleaned up. That is totally inappropriate,” she continues after ordering he pay a $100 fine for the eyesore.

Chowdhury’s son, Shibbir, 33, was also present, and spoke on behalf of his father when he told Krot that cancer treatments had left his dad very weak — and prevented him from mowing the lawn lately.

Overgrown grasses and weeds on Burhan Chowdhury’s property. His son, Shibbir, 33, spoke on behalf of his father when he told the judge that cancer treatments had left his father very weak — and prevented him from mowing the lawn lately.

For years, Shibbir helped his struggling father around the house, but had been in Bangladesh for three months prior to Chowdhury’s citation on Aug. 2.

Rhetorically, the judge shoots back: “Do you see that photo? That is shameful. Shameful. The neighbors should not have to look at that.”

Since Tuesday, nearly 10,000 social media watchdogs have signed a petition on Change.org to demand that Krot be removed from her seat. “She has a history of being bigoted to immigrants,” the petition alleges.

The petition also pointed to a post on Instagram by Detroit crime blogger @crimeinthed_detroit, where one follower quipped, “Who appointed Karen as judge?”

A Change.org petition is calling for the removal of Judge Alexis G. Krot from the 31st District Court.

Krot has not returned requests for comment about the petition, as her role as a judge forbids her from making statements about the case, according to Detroit news station WDIV.

Meanwhile, Shibbir told WDIV he acknowledged the “mistakes” that led his family to break a city ordinance.

He also told the Washington Post, “She was telling my father, a sick person, that he should go to jail. That’s ridiculous. You can’t give a 72-year-old person jail time for not cleaning an alley. I was really shocked by it. I didn’t expect her to yell at us in this kind of a situation.”

Shibbir paid his dad’s ticket on Wednesday, according to Insider, while also receiving support online from those who witnessed the disturbing public hearing.

“People understand that a situation like this can happen with someone who is old or sick,” he said.

The "neighbors" should have helped the sick dude and cut his lawn for him. How hard can it be? My Dad used to send me out to cut my elderly neighbors' lawn, shovel their snow, etc.

True, I also doubt that the son was in Bangladesh for 3 months while his Dad was dying of cancer, but if so that is also pretty shitty

these people don't belong here. while i sympathize with the father, not speaking much english and having your son go back to the homeland isn't an excuse for allowing your lawn to become a dangerous eyesore to everyone else in the neighborhood.

in a homogeneous neighborhood it is safe to assume the neighbors would be aware of the man's cancer and help him with that kind of stuff. but because he's a foreigner who can't speak english no one bothered to talk to him.

In America we view our neighbors with suspicion and don't help them, which is partly pathological individualism and partially justifiable shell-shock from a "diverse" world

doesnt matter how bad it is. you dont solve it with cops unless its abandoned property.

knock on the door to complain. talk to the guy, learn his circumstances, and cut it yourself or hire a local kid to do so.

Just when you absolutely want to link arms with lib activists and empower normal America against arrogant elites, libs make this about being "bigoted to immigrants".

Suddenly you realize libs want to exploit the situation to allow rape gangs into the neighborhood or locate a house of 38 somalians next door and the public criticism of the judge, whom you had previously viewed with contempt, matures into hating her because she is white, as are you.

And you leave hating libs more than before, the terrible judge stays on the bench, the neighbors all continue to hate each other, and America remains a hellscape
