- On March 1st, 1969 The Doors perform at the Miami Dinner Key Auditorium and Jim Morrison is later faced with numerous charges due to supposed incidents taking place during the show. Unaware of their future troubles with the law, Jim and The Doors board a plane the next day and head to Jamaica for a holiday. In the subsequent days while on vacation, Miami officials begin to issue warrants for Jim's arrest, and the media begins reporting the event nationwide. Jim Morrison returns to the U.S. only to learn that he is being charged with a felony and is now a wanted man in Florida.
On April 3rd, Jim turns himself in to authorities at the Los Angeles Federal Building after a second felony charge is laid against him for fleeing Miami. He waives extradition charges, and is eventually arrested on November 9th in Miami where he is released 20 minutes later on bond. All official documents pertaining to the trial and arrest indicate that Jim had a total of 4 charges laid against him - Lewd and Lascivious Behavior (a felony), Indecent Exposure, Open Profanity and Public Drunkeness.
On August 10th, 1970 the trial officially begins at the Dade County Courthouse as Case No. 69-2355 "State Of Florida vs. James Douglas Morrison". Max Fink is selected as Jim's defense lawyer for the case along with local attorney Robert Josefsberg. From August to October of 1970, details on Jim Morrison's trial are given national attention and the trial is looked upon as a farce by Jim, the band members, and legal attorneys on both sides of the case. Despite their opinions, Judge Murray Goodman is determined to make an example out of Jim for political and financial reasons, and all efforts are made to convict him. On September 20th, Jim is convicted with Open Profanity and Indecent Exposure, with the right to appeal, and given a 6 month prison sentence and $500 fine. He is released on bond pending his appeal, and states that he intends to appeal the case for as long as it takes. In February of 1971, Jim is residing in Paris where French law indicates that he cannot legally be extradited back to the U.S. to face the charges. He never returns from Paris.

In this video I see a man who has suffered many injustices, he gives me melancholy but makes me love Jim more. Thanks, I had never seen it
Nah. Brought it all on himself. I’m a huge fan btw
He also was tranquilized out of his mind here lol he’s never been as innocent as you think
It was a lynching and they broke his spirit.
Lots of his injustices were self created but couldn’t help himself
You know he got it easy they knew his golden boy upbringing would go his way the admiral father he should of done the 6 month sentence like a man
Miss Jim bigtime.
Jim looked a lil bit worried at the end
Jim was great with his super intelligent quotes in interviews. He was always so erudite and very articulate. Sad to see all his talent and rock star persona being destroyed by drugs and alcohol. He had it all fame, fortune and adulation but he threw it all away. He is still one of my favorite rock musicians and the doors will always be one of my favorite bands next to the Stones and the kinks. He lived an extremely short life but also a full one indeed. R.I.P. Jim. You and Ray and the doors live on and rock on forever.
Depends on the drugs. Acid and weed were beneficial but alcohol and herion killed a lot of people especially when Vietnam Vets came back.
I think the same. Acid and weed are great when taken in moderation but alcohol my god it’s so pervasive. It’s a legal drug and has been for many many years, I am an ex alcoholic and the damage it can do to you and those around you is immense.
All the crazy stories and no photos or film of anything? Lol. Jim was a one if a kind trip.
That arrest in FL really freaked him out Ray said. He wasn't the same amd he was really worried about going to prison. He took off for Paris
True I was just watching a interview where ray talked about that
Damn those teeny boppers.
The song sounds like hip hop meets the Doors and Pink Floyd
Really cool music that
Pink floyd was Jim's favourite band
@@REMAINS1666 the kinks
@@eleiser4806kinks and Sinatra and Elvis I think. Jim liked Floyd but wasn’t around to really see them at their best.
Watching. This. Felt. Surreal.
This Miami trial was a shame against Jim Morrison and the Doors!
It was the way the US government managed to end the Doors concerts!
For God's sake in the 60's when freedom of expression was breathed, everyone walked naked, when films like Hair, Easy Rider... (a warning foreshadowing for Jim Morrison), the movie Easy Rider .. .this foreshadowing that Jim was not aware....unfortunately it cost him his life!
Jim Morrison to be judged while organizing a festival that went down in history,...Woodstock Festival...have pity, but what a bad joke!
Jim Morrison did not live in vain... He won this cause that was never lost... He was living proof that you pay a very high price for having the courage to wear your soul on your face... as he said.. ..
I always loved Jim Morrison, now I love him even more!
Jim will live until the end of time in our hearts and beyond....Jim forever!!!
Myslím, že Jim byl ke konci života v depresi z toho, v čem žije, co z něho vytvořila jeho image zpěváka. Byl to hluboký člověk, který filosofoval a myslel spirituálně, v širších souvislostech. Myslím, že kdyby viděl, co se dneska považuje za umění, byl by zděšen. Duše básníka vždy naráží na hranici reality. Hudba Doors je nadčasova, to je opravdová hudba a umění. A bohužel, v téhle éře kulturního úpadku ji nikdo nenahradí.
@@jtalada díky, nevím, jestli mám pravdu, ale tak to cítím
All the Girls Loved Jim Morrison
So did the boys!
Why did you throw the Jack of Hearts away? It was the only card in deck I had left to play!
Jim was the man, face it...
for sure he was the incarnation of Nietzsche's Übermensch
@@alexanderdegothia Übermensch "who got some friends inside" lol
Ironically, the same judge would preside over the Ted Bundy trial in florida nearly 10 years later. Judge Cowart
Morrison for real pay the ultimate price...RIP Mr mojo risin✌
What song was in the background????????
Yes
is there "god in the making" instrumental? no singing. thanks, great video.
You could have at least had The Doors music playing in the background.
Maybe John Densmore said no. Lol
Who did the music in this?
Jim looks like my dad here LOL
Music: God in the Making (feat. Tuan & Leugain Beatz)
He looks uncomfortable being there and tired.
Who was the long haired heavy set guy with green shirt, could you imagine being in Jim's inner circle back in the days,? Harrison Ford worked with him in the late 60s as part of film crew
that was his good friend Babe Hill. If you have time you can read an interview of him here, it’s a good and true read regarding Jim. newdoorstalk.proboards.com/thread/1417
@@VaderPopsVicodin10 Harrison Ford is not present as a cameraman during this show.
Why you put in the music?
Federico Mazzeo why not?
@@alexanderdegothia cause I cant hear jim 😂
Federico Mazzeo a tried my best to take the music down a notch when he was talking i believe you can hear very well what he is saying if you don’t have a hearing problem and i’m sorry if you do i was just trying to keep a vibe trough the video and not make it boring.
this is great. what's the music in the background? that's a good groove....

@@Angel-ru6jd Ah, thanks man, much appreciated...
Man it's incredible how his looks changed so much in just two years or so, receeding hair line, bloated face, youthful look gone
he looks outstanding. so handsome. i like his mature look much more that the naughty one.
"Changeling"...
Receding hairline? If you think Morrison hairline is receding here in this footage I feel sorry for you.
Jim was scared to do jail time.
I wonder if the young girl fans even recognized him!
When your in your twenties you look up to him as a mystical hero like I did but now I’m 39 I see him as a unfortunate waste of talent very foolish
He will always be remembered for the thing he came to depise, the leather-clad rock god.
This gives me some sort of awful, psychic-somatic retro funk. He is so beautiful it makes me nauseas. He looks like a man who has seen his very short future.
He was actually optimistic toward the end of his life. Addiction has its way of draining any form of that from you though.
@@loungefly92 you’re not optimistic if you’re dabbling with heroine
@@Earthtime3978 It's a disease, you can still br optimistic regarding life. Substances just make a mess of potential happiness. He wanted to kick it, which is partly why he moved to France.
@@loungefly92 I’m over 20 years sober I know all about the disease concept . He didn’t want to kick shit. His very nature was not one of optimism . He had a death wish. “Bird of prey, bird of prey, am I going to die?”
He forced deaths hand. You’re very mistaken about Jim Morrison.
@@Earthtime3978 I think you read too much into the mysticism of Jim. He was fascinated by death, sure. He was also a sensitive guy that negated any positive influences in his life. I'm glad you're sober, but to pretend either of us know anything is just ill-information.
Where can I get galsses like those?

Thanks maan!!
Yeah, these glasses are really great!
Morrison was absolutely pilled up on tranquilizers here for his court. I think they used to be Quaaludes?.. It’s what Xanax is today being benzodiazepines/tranquilizers
I remember him saying it an interview before that he either was going to take a bunch or it was after he admitted it.
This guy definitely had addiction and may have been bipolar
People have told me I remind them of him
Can’t tell how I feel
Are you bipolar?
@@Dzanarika1 yes Bipolar II the people in white suits and stethoscopes said...
Take showers, not baths.
Why would you insert fake noise and damage Jim's reputation?
So sad..even died before he could serve his sentence..imagine having a life end that way. Tragic
Awesome content keep going! mhwlawfirm.com always on your side.
This and the Manson trial, complete circus act!
Well jim was slowly falling apart at that time because of his alchohol and heroin abuse which destroyed everything that he loved,he was very lucky to make it through the la woman album at the chance he could.
One of the very first comments about jim was heroin user.
Jim Morrison was NOT a heroin user but i do believe he dabbled in his later months...
@@alexanderdegothia I always think the same about it.to much pressure on him at the End of he's day's.
Jim wasn't a heroin addict. He did try it a couple times in Paris once he moved there in early 71, and it actually was the reason he died as he took some after he had been drinking l, which almost always has disastrous consequences. Jim was an alcoholic first and foremost, and that goes back to even before his time with the Doors.
Alcohol was his drug of choice, and also lsd. He didn’t start heroin until the much later time
