Prosecutor asks Willie N. to sing for indictment
Mar 29^th, 2011 at 1:20pm

EL PASO, Texas – A Texas prosecutor says Willie Nelson can resolve marijuana possession charges by agreeing to plead guilty, pay a fine — and sing "Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain" for the court.

County Attorney Kit Bramblett says he recommended the penalties to Hudspeth County's judge Becky Dean-Walker. Bramblett says the judge specifically demanded Nelson appear in court instead of pleading by mail, which is a common procedure in such cases.

Bramblett has told The Associated Press that the judge "wants to meet Willie."

Dean-Walker didn't immediately return a call seeking comment Tuesday.

Nelson was arrested Nov. 26 for marijuana possession at a Border Patrol checkpoint after an agent smelled an odor coming from his vehicle and decided to conduct a search.

Nelson's spokeswoman has declined to comment on Bramblett's sentencing suggestion.

EL PASO, Texas – A Texas judge says Willie Nelson won't have to sing in court to resolve marijuana possession charges — and a suggestion that he do so was a joke.

Hudspeth County Attorney Kit Bramblett had said Nelson could resolve the charges by pleading guilty, paying a fine — and singing "Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain" for the court.

Bramblett said Judge Becky Dean-Walker demanded Nelson appear in court, not plead by mail.

Dean-Walker told The Associated Press she thinks the prosecutor was trying to be funny, "and it got out of hand." She said Tuesday that Nelson can plead guilty without coming to court and singing.

Nelson was arrested Nov. 26 at a Border Patrol checkpoint in Sierra Blanca. His spokeswoman had declined to comment earlier on the sentencing suggestion.
