Question

Is there any idioms or phrases associated with a person who is probably guilty and stands accused of a fault himself/herself but judges other people yet?
For such people we say "His/Her foot is trapped himself/herself" in our language, meaning that he/she doesn't have the right to speak since he/she's one of the accused.
thoughts?

In my opinion, that person is a hypocrite who acts in contradiction to his behaviour; one would think that he's honest and truthworthy when he points out other people's misdeeds without mentioning his own wrongdoings.
