Given that she tried to run, sounds like she was guilty of the hit and run.

No sympathy.

Pretty harsh considering you don't know the extent of the hit and run. Hit and run can be anything from denting a fender without reporting it and leaving the scene to hitting someone one and causing bodily injury or death. So you are saying, assuming she was even guilty of the charge, that even if she only dented someone's car she deserved to be relegated to a life of being a veggie? Said life, of course, promises to be very short as they will probably pull the plug soon. Sounds like an accident as far as the police action goes, how was the cop to know what would happen when he tased her? OTH, Cops using tasers have been responsible for many deaths and injuries considering that the taser is supposed to be a non deadly response tool.

Yeah, I guess he should have popped a couple caps in her instead of using the taser.

Many more hit and run perps have killed innocent people while fleeing the scene of their first crime than will ever die from a taze. It’s standard practice now to flee from any little circumstance and endanger the population at large. High speed chases should be punishable by long sentences or even death

Has nothing to do with what she was arrested for. People can't be allowed to just run from an arrest. Whatever she will suffer from she is the only one responsible for a stupid decision. Actions have consequences!
