From classroom to the courtroom, the unexpected reunion happened after decades

(Web Desk) – A burglary suspect in American city Miami melted down in tears after judge in whose court he appeared for his hearing recognized him and asked if he went to the same middle school.

The unintentional reunion after decades presented nothing short of an emotional scene when the judge Mindy Glazer recalled how the suspect Arthur Booth was the ‘nicest kid’ at school.

"Mr. Booth, I have a question for you," the judge asked the suspect.

"Yes, ma am?" Booth responded.

"Did you go to Nautilus for middle school?" the judge continued, upon which the suspect burst into tears after repeatedly saying "oh, my goodness!".

Booth was left totally shocked. The judge expressed how she felt by saying how sorry she was seeing Booth at that position and hoped he would come out of this.

“I hope you’re able to come out of this and lead a lawful life”, she continued.
