Over the past couple years, parents ordering their kids to hold up signs in public has become an entertaining form of punishment. There was this example last year of a sign that decreed its owner as a ” self-entitled teenager ” and this one of a kid holding a sign that says he’s a bully . But the following is the first example in recent memory of man being ordered by a judge to publicly shame himself in such a manner. Edmond Aviv is a 62-year old resident of South Euclid, Ohio. In February, he pleaded no contest to a misdemeanor charge of disorderly conduct – and here’s why: For well over a decade, Aviv has been feuding with neighbor Sandra Prugh, a mother of two adult/adopted children with developmental disabilities. She also has a a husband with dementia and a paralyzed son. In court documents, Prugh says Aviv smeared feces on the family’s wheelchair ramp; hurled ethnic slurs at her African-American kids; and spit on her multiple times. For Aviv’s sentencing, the judge ordered this bully to hold the above sign for five hours on Sunday, requiring the lettering to be large enough that it could be read from 25 feet away. He was also  ordered to serve 15 days in jail, undergo anger management classes and write an apology letter to Prugh.
