Video: US teenager lands in jail after lewd hand gesture to judge Penelope Soto, 18, was in court after being arrested for illegal possession of the prescription drug Xanax. Dressed in an orange jumpsuit Ms Soto laughed when Circuit Judge Jorge Rodriguez-Chomat asked how much her jewellery was worth as he inquired about her financial assets in order to decide on a penalty. The judge told Ms Soto "we're not in a club, be serious about it." He initially set Ms Soto's bail at $5,000 and said, "bye-bye" to which Ms Soto laughed again and replied, "Adios." Believing her behaviour to be disrespectful behaviour he summoned her back and doubled her bail at $10,000. The outraged teenager asked: "Are you serious?" to which the judge replied, "I am serious. Adios. The teenager then made a lewd hand gesture and blurted an expletive as she walked away. The clearly aggravated judge hauled her back again and sentenced her to 30 days in jail.
