Former district judge Woody Densen was indicted today for criminal mischief after getting caught on video keying a neighbor's car. It's a state-jail felony charge, since the car damaged was expensive, so he's facing up to two years in jail.And around the courthouse, among veteran lawyers, there is much cackling. Schadenfreude is the Word of the Day.Densen came on the bench in 1983 with high hopes from his criminal-defense colleagues; he quickly squandered all that good will with ineptitude, a ha
