30:50Now PlayingBodycam footage released by the Atlanta Police Department shows a Georgia judge being arrested for simple battery against a police officer and obstruction on June 20. Douglas County probate judge Christina Peterson allegedly pushed an officer in the chest and kept swiping his hands away while he was trying to de-escalate a situation between security and a female outside the Red Martini Restaurant and Lounge nightclub. Peterson told one of her friends to “record, please,” as if body-worn cameras did not already record the entire incident. “God is not pleased,” she told the arresting officer.

Peterson’s attorney, Marvin Arrington Jr., characterizes the situation as a good deed gone wrong, questioning why the alleged attacker wasn't arrested while Peterson was.
The 38-year-old refused to tell officers her name. “I want to get booked,” Peterson said. "I'll be in here with Young Thug and Woody." At one point, Peterson was given the option of providing her name or getting back into the police cruiser until she did, to which she responded, “Good luck” and got back into the car. “You can Google me and find me anywhere in America.” She said to the officer “f**k you” and that she was praying for him in the same breath.
