A Garrard County woman is arrested for wearing short shorts to court. 
Judge Janet Booth sent 28-year-old Kirstie Arnold to jail for wearing short khaki shorts to a scheduled court appearance Monday. In a jailhouse interview, Arnold told Action News 36 she doesn't think the shorts were short and says she felt "dressed up" in them and a white baby-doll tank top.
Arnold was only supposed to spend four days in the Boyle County Jail but after her arrest, police found cocaine and prescription pills in her purse. She now faces a half dozen charges in addition to contempt of court.
Arnold tells Action News she has been in trouble with the same judge before for wearing a tank top with no bra to another court appearance. Arnold says she has learned her lesson. She won't be wearing short shorts to court again, instead she will wear jeans and a long-sleeved t-shirt.
