A St Joe man made his probation a little tougher by showing up drunk to court Wednesday.

Thomas Mitchell was charged with drunk driving last month and was facing a probation violation for a prior conviction on charges of receiving stolen property.

Judge Dan Kellogg ordered a blood alcohol test, which Mitchell failed.

According to court documents,  Mitchell tested at .147%, which is more than twice the legal driving limit.

Judge Kellogg tossed him in the clink to sober up and ordered continuing alcohol testing.
