EASTON, Pa. (AP) — A man accused of driving drunk said Pennsylvania courts have no jurisdiction over him because he's his own country. After seeing the paperwork that 44-year-old Scott Allan Witmer filed with the court claiming sovereignty, a Northampton County judge said Tuesday he cannot be released from jail until he gets a mental exam.

Witmer, who represented himself, said he believes police lack jurisdiction to pull him over. As he said in court: "I live inside myself, not in Pennsylvania." He said there is no victim in the crime and asked to go to trial.

Yup, that's going to work. :yes:

Damn, if this was the old days, saying that to the cops would have likely landed him with a simultaneous trip down a flight of pistol grip-shaped stairs.

you really can claim soverign state though, but you have to go through a shit ton of paperwork and you will be basically considered a terrorist and heavily watched by all levels of the government, but i doubt he did all that, claiming to live inside his body and not in penn, thats ridiculous
