Judge admits stealing panties

Suffolk County District Judge Robert Cicale pleaded not guilty, posted bail, and walked out of court on Friday from the other side of the bench. Call it a lapse in judgment: a bizarre burglary involving the judge, who admitted he is a serial underwear stealer. In a written confession, Cicale, 49, told police that on several occasions he broke into a home across the street and stole women's underpants out of a hamper.
