Bird, 57, had stepped out for what he referred to as his ‘final drink before jail’ while awaiting his sentencing hearing on March 27. After returning to the court later that day, Bird was visibly drunk, prompting security officers to ask him to leave on two occasions. Instead of complying fully, he pushed one officer in the chest, although no injury was caused, according to court reports.
