Rip Torn Pleads Not Guilty to Thing He is Totally Guilty For

Rip Torn is gonna fight the man! Despite the the steep legal odds that were stacked against him after a drunk, armed Torn broke into a bank and thought it was actually his Connecticut home, the 79-year-old actor pleaded not guilty today to charges that include criminal trespass, carrying a gun without a permit, carrying a gun while intoxicated, burglary and criminal mischief. From here, it looks like he kind of did all those things, but from Torn's point-of-view, he was merely shouting "Not guilty!" into an exciting cotton candy cloud world, not a courtroom. Perspective!
