Judge to justin Bieber: Join the Marine Corps or go to jail

Filed · 1543

MIAMI — A Miami judge is giving troubled pop star Justin Bieber a choice in punishment following his arrest on Thursday: Join the Marine Corps or go to jail.

Bieber faces charges of drunk driving, resisting arrest, and driving without a license. He also reportedly refused to cooperate with officers on the scene and used "choice words" when police tried to question him and administer a cursory pat down and field sobriety test.

Judge Joseph Farina reviewed the charges and the arrest report which details a litany of belligerence and profanity directed at police. "I ain't got no f------ weapons," the report quotes Bieber as saying. "Why do you have to search me? What the f--- is this about?"

Bieber, a 19-year-old who was tragically discovered after posting a video to Youtube of himself, may soon be joining the ranks of Marine recruits.
