The Saggy Pants Judge claims he let the guy off easy.

In a comment to this post about a man being jailed for three days for wearing saggy pants to court, Mr. Torvik wrote "that perhaps Mr. Ramsey got off easy" because he was jailed for three days but not fined.  Mr. Torvik pointed out that some towns including Albany, Georgia, are fining people who wear pants that sag more than three inches below the top of the hip.  The link in Mr. Torvik's post didn't work for me but I did find this article from the Albany Herald.

Wearing saggy pants in the courtoom: is a fashion statement worth three days in jail?

"Autauga County is a friendly community in the Appalachian foothills with gently rolling land, outcropping of mountains and valleys."  So says the Autauga County, Alabama website.  However, woe be to the scofflaw who wears saggy pants in front of Autauga County Circuit Court Judge John Bush.
