Washington County Clerk of Courts, Brenda Davis, will serve 15 days to six months in the Washington County Jail and pay a $5,000 fine after being found guilty of criminal contempt of court.  Judge John DiSalle found Davis guilty Thursday after her refusal to turn over juvenile court records and appear in his courtroom back in November.  DiSalle also called her actions that day, “the most undignified display of behavior he ever witnessed.”  Davis’ attorney, Charles Gallo, said Davis has been complying with DiSalle’s orders but was not surprised by the ruling.   Davis is lodged in the Washington County Jail and will follow all rules of probation following her prison time.  Gallo plans to file an appeal.
