Judge Frank Caprio, a Rhode Island legend and beloved TV figure known as “America’s nicest judge,” has passed away at the age of 88 after a battle with cancer.

Caprio captured the hearts of millions with his compassionate rulings on the TV show Caught in Providence, where he often gave struggling defendants—especially veterans and families—second chances instead of harsh penalties.

In many cases, he personally paid fines out of his own pocket, showing that justice could be served with both fairness and humanity. His kindness made him a viral sensation online, with countless clips of his heartfelt rulings being shared worldwide.

“My father taught me that everyone has a story,” Caprio once said. “Before you pass judgment, listen.”
