In his spare time, Willett also fights crime on the streets of Gotham.
Via MY Statesman:
Texas Supreme Court Justice Don Willett took no time at all to render his decision: The piece of food stuck in the Chick-fil-A customer’s throat Tuesday evening had to be set free.
“I was hunched over my MacBook, munching some Chick-fil-A chicken strips while discussing errands with my wife on my cell,” the judge told the American-Statesman. Suddenly, another customer rushed to the booth in front of him, he said, and “started performing the Heimlich maneuver on a dad who was dining with his young daughter.”The choking man, 53-year-old Danny Martinez, blamed the gluten-free bun he ordered at the restaurant on South MoPac Boulevard (Loop 1) and U.S. 290 for the evening’s pandemonium in which the judge and an Austin middle school teacher helped save his life.
“I think that was my big mistake,” Martinez told the Statesman on Wednesday. “The gluten-free bun was kind of dry, and it got stuck in my throat and I couldn’t breathe.”
