CAUGHT ON CAMERA: Defendant sucker punches his own lawyer

A defendant on trial for allegedly attacking a corrections officer sucker-punched his attorney in an Arizona courtroom after the judge ordered him to leave.

The defendant, Lamont Payne, had repeatedly interrupted the judge during the courtroom proceeding last year.

"He was swearing and rolling his eyes and making a scene," his public attorney Vladimir Gagic told a local TV station. "Just causing a commotion and being a troublemaker."

As Payne got up to leave he sucked-punched Gagic, and it was caught on tape. Check it out below. The sucker punch comes right after the two-minute mark of the video. You can also read more HERE.
