Jorida Davidson, the 30-year-old Maryland resident who was arrested and charged with voluntary manslaughter after allegedly striking and killing a woman with her SUV on Connecticut Avenue on October 7, reportedly violated the terms of her court-ordered supervision. Dave Jamieson reports that Davidson — who was ordered under “intense” supervision inside her Chevy Chase home after being arraigned — took a ninety-minute trip to a local airport (a “family tradition”) which carried her beyond established curfew. If hundreds of episodes of Law and Order have taught me anything, it’s that the justice system tends to frown on people making trips to the airport before they are scheduled to face manslaughter charges. D.C. Superior Court Judge Lynn Leibovitz laid the smackdown on Davidson today:

“Traditions, you forgetting — they don’t trump my orders,” the Hon. Lynn Leibovitz told Davidson. “You’re under high-intensity supervision. The requirements of that program are very strict, and if you don’t follow them I’ll ask why… I shouldn’t send you to the [D.C.] jail.”

Word up, your honor. As a consequence of the violation, Davidson’s curfew has been pushed up a couple of hours to 8 p.m. The next hearing in the case is scheduled for January 5.
