A judge known for unusual sentences has handed down some more out of the ordinary punishments, a 30 mile walk and pepper spray to the face.

Wale Aliyu explains how this judge makes the punishment fit the crime.

Option number one for 18-year-old Victoria Bascom is 30 days in jail for stiffing a taxi driver on a ride from Cleveland to Painesville.

But lucky or unlucky for her, judge Michael Cicconetti gave her option number two.

"What would you do if you didn't have a cab?," ask the judge.





"Walk," replied Victoria.



" So i think it's only appropriate that you walk the 30 miles," says judge Cicconetti.



She chose to walk 30 miles over the next 48 hours at the Lake County fairgrounds.



And if you think that sentence is farfetched, you won't believe the next one.



After spraying a person with mace at Burger King, 20-year-old Diamond Gaston also got two options, "Either 30 days in jail or take a shot of mace to your face or whatever, and I'm just like, okay, i'm just going to opt out for the mace."



But even the unusual judge Cicconetti knew he couldn't make his punishment sting that much.



The can had no mace -- just water.



Judge Cicconetti explained, "I think it was the fear of it, knowing that or believing that it was going to be pepper spray was enough to say okay."



"He's like, oh, it's water, and i was like, oh, okay, like, that's a relief," said the defendant Gaston.



"i wouldn't do anything illegal. Will there be maybe some public feedback or whatever? i don't care. Yeah, it's a little different, it's a little unique, but maybe we just need that a little bit in the judicial system.," said the judge.
