Matt Walsh — the new judge in town on the DailyWire+ arbitration-based reality courtroom comedy “JUDGED by Matt Walsh” — is coming down hard on country star Morgan Wallen after Wallen was arrested by Nashville police for allegedly throwing a chair from a rooftop bar on Broadway Street.

Wallen, 30, was arrested earlier this week after a chair crashed to the ground near police officers. Witnesses reportedly described seeing Wallen “pick up the chair, throw it over him, laughing afterward.” In an appearance on “The Michael Knowles Show” on Tuesday, Judge Walsh quipped that all of the evidence in the case “adds up to a death sentence on multiple charges.”

“Everyone knows Broadway is for, like, white girls from New Jersey, not for actual residents of Nashville. So what are you doing on Broadway?” Judge Walsh asked. “What are you doing at a rooftop bar as a 30-year-old man? And then you add those two charges on top of throwing the chair, which could have killed you, could have killed ten people, depending on how closely they’re back together, depending on how heavy the chair is, which we don’t have that information.”

“But I think it all adds up to a death sentence on multiple charges. So I would I would execute him. I would execute Morgan Wallen. He should be killed,” Walsh added. “That’s my legal analysis.”

The new judge said he won’t be trying Wallen’s case in his courtroom as it doesn’t “rise to the level of the sort of cases that we see in this courtroom,” but Judge Walsh did tell Knowles about a few of the cases people will soon be able to watch on “JUDGED by Matt Walsh.”

“I don’t want to get into any spoilers or anything like that, but I will say that one of the cases has to do with a woman and her lips exploding,” Judge Walsh said, adding, “So we have exploding lips. We have cases that have to deal with a woman who got her finger bit by a dog. And she actually had a cut in a laceration on her finger because a dog bit it.

“We have a case that has to do with a man who didn’t want to cut the grass because he has an allergy to the grass,” the judge continued. “And there was a very intense dispute between him and his roommate about who would cut the grass because one doesn’t want to and the other has an allergy. So these are the sorts of cases that we deal with and know the cases that, you know, so-called real courts wouldn’t take. And they bring [them] to me and I give them the seriousness that they deserve.”

“JUDGED” premieres Tuesday, April 9, at 8:00 p.m. ET, with the first episode streaming for free on DailyWire+, X, Facebook, and YouTube and the second episode dropping the same night on DailyWire+. New episodes of “JUDGED by Matt Walsh” will drop weekly on Tuesdays, exclusively on DailyWire+.
