Why wasn't he farting on Monday, or Tuesday, or Thursday? We would have been told if he had.

Something sneaky is going on. I would not excuse him from the courtroom for that. The Judge can advise his lawyers to bring sprays for the stench, but the trial will go on. The Judge could also block out rows of seats behind him. Also, they could supply the jury with masks.

He's not getting out of this. And, this is disgusting. Sure didn't stop him from that Bodega stunt he pulled.

There was a lot going on, focus was on many things.
It is not polite conversation to talk about bowel habits.

ETA It is possible he is doing it on purpose to be passive aggressive.

Or he has some serious health issues.

He’s probably been farting in people’s faces for years, but nobody’s had the guts to mention it.

my grandfather said his cousin was a hellraiser.

one time his folks were going to town and would not let him go with
them.

he fed the horse some sulpher.

this would have probably been late 1800s.

Specific opioid medications that have been reported to cause flatulence as a side effect include:

Morphine
Oxycodone (e.g. OxyContin, Percocet)
Hydrocodone (e.g. Vicodin, Norco)
Codeine
Tramadol

This side effect may be more common with long-term opioid use rather than short-term. Patients taking opioids who experience problematic gas or bloating should discuss it with their doctor, as adjustments to the medication regimen or additional interventions may help.

There are a few prescription medications used to treat mood disorders like depression and anxiety that can potentially cause increased flatulence or gas as a side effect:

Antidepressants:

Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs) - Medications like fluoxetine (Prozac), sertraline (Zoloft), and paroxetine (Paxil) have been reported to cause gas and bloating in some patients.

Serotonin-Norepinephrine Reuptake Inhibitors (SNRIs) - Drugs in this class, such as duloxetine (Cymbalta) and venlafaxine (Effexor), can also potentially lead to increased flatulence.

Benzodiazepines:

Medications like alprazolam (Xanax), clonazepam (Klonopin), and lorazepam (Ativan) used to treat anxiety may cause gas and bloating in some individuals.
Mood stabilizers:

Certain anticonvulsant drugs used as mood stabilizers, such as valproic acid (Depakote), have been associated with flatulence as a side effect.

The exact mechanisms by which these psychiatric medications can contribute to increased gas and flatulence are not fully clear, but they likely involve disruptions to normal gastrointestinal function and motility.
