A man up on drug charges decided to smear his feces around the court room. Well, he was found guilty and sentenced to ten years. I wonder if smearing the feces made any difference in sentencing?

Maybe he was hoping for an insanity defence.
Or figured this would be the best way to ensure no-one would want to cell with, or go near, him in prison.
