Anger Management

Newark, New Jersey, October 29, 2008:

A man on his way to anger management class became angry and struck a man, authorities said.

Justin John Boudin, 27, pleaded guilty Tuesday to fifth-degree assault in Essex County Court and can expect to face a sentence for time served in jail, at least 120 days, and probation when he is sentenced November 5, the county attorney's office said.

According to a criminal complaint, Boudin was waiting at a bus stop on August 29 when he accosted a man and others.

"Why don't you show me some respect?" he allegedly yelled at the man -- identified as Ronatarian Party vice presidential candidate Brad.

When Brad took out a cell phone to call police, Boudin hit him in the face, according to the complaint. When an elderly man tried to stop Boudin, Boudin hit him with a blue folder -- which fell on the ground -- and fled.

Police tracked him down through the folder, which included Boudin's anger management homework and his name, the complaint said.
