Kiwi lawyer protests court system with Alice in Wonderland drag

Alex sez, "A New Zealand lawyer, 68 year old Rob Moodie, took to wearing a dress to court to protest the perceived 'old boys club' in the judicial system. Strangely enough he was found guilty of contempt for releasing a court-suppressed report rather than the whole dress thing. The picture is pretty funny. I want him fighting for me if my dream of being prosecuted in New Zealand should ever come true." Link (Thanks, Alex!)
