(FOX NEWS) – A North Carolina judge sent a prospective juror to jail after he refused an order to wear a mask, despite there being no mandate on the books.
"I never thought I would show up to jury duty and end up behind bars. So it happened," Gregory Hahn told Tucker Carlson on "Tucker Carlson Tonight."
Judge Charles Gilchrist, who was first nominated to the bench by former Democratic Gov. Bev Purdue, remanded Hahn to custody after he refused the judge's order to put a mask on. The Harnett County Courthouse in Lillington reportedly does not have a mask mandate. Wearing masks, Hahn said, was optional at the courthouse, and North Carolina Democratic Gov. Roy Cooper lifted his statewide mandate months ago.
