Ebola nurse defies orders to stay at home and goes for a cycle as police follow in car
Daily Mail ^ | 11:59 EST, 30 October 2014 | Martin Gould In Fort Kent, Maine and Louise Boyle

Posted on 10/30/2014 10:15:42 AM PDT by CorporateStepsister

Nurse Kaci Hickox defied Maine's mandatory Ebola quarantine on Thursday and headed out for a bike ride with her boyfriend.

The 33-year-old nurse left her home in Fort Kent, Maine with partner Ted Wilbur this morning, wearing gloves, a safety helmet and couple of layers of fleece to combat the bitter cold.

Miss Hickox broke her quarantine at 9am and took an ATV trail behind her home for the hour-long ride. A state trooper who had been stationed outside the house followed her in a police cruiser.

'It's just good to be out,' Miss Hickox told MailOnline as she left.

Maine police were monitoring her movements and public interactions but there was no court order to arrest the nurse.

Our baby is so precious. She loves poor Africans, and will do everything she can to help them. She loves them more than Americans, who are so prejudiced and hateful. She’s so smart too - she worked for the government and travelled the world. She knows better than anyone when she is infected or not.

Our precious baby is also so politically aware and active - she’s not going to let those racist, sexist governors boss her around. She’s so brave to stand up for her rights! How dare those nasty people not let her ride her bike!

The first idiot like this that actually gives Ebola to someone... should be shot by firing squad in public!

Don't kid yourself. Her attorney is telling her exactly what to do. The chances of her having ANY contact on this trail is probably "0".

But would her attorney let her go to a mall?? I doubt it.

So this is just a phoney boloney little run to provoke Christie...and the local Republican politicians.

Yeh...shame on me but she's on my wish list.

Something wrong with this story.

She will be a featured speaker at the next DNC convention - maybe even run for office like Sandra Fluke.

She is wasting our money and safety.
That state trooper could be catching a drunk driver or something. Instead he is just riding along watching her a$$.

She works directly for the CDC, is a registered Democrat-—draw your own conclusions.

I wonder how much she has been quarantined from the boyfriend. Not to arouse prurient interest necessarily, but just wonder if he is afraid to get too close to her.

There is no court order to arrest her. Just as I thought, so the question is, why not?

It might be something like this kind of relationship.

“There is no court order to arrest her. Just as I thought, so the question is, why not?”

From one of the Maine HC officials last evening on FNC, Maine is currently in court on this matter. Unlike this bitch, they are following the law. When and if they get a court order, she will go to jail is my take on what the woman said.

This should be considered attempted murder.

Probably because she's not exposing herself to the public. The bike run is phony. I bet they closed off the trail at the entrances/exits and notified everyone along the trail.

She's just a little smart-a**.

Hickox shook the hand of MailOnline's reporter at the scene and said: 'You could hug me. You could shake my hand. I would not give you Ebola'

“...she’s not exposing herself to the public”

She is out in public. All she has to do is sneeze, or grasp a door knob, or any other many things, which she has had to do already.

If she is infected with Ebola those things will matter.

It will be hilarious if she comes down with full-blown Ebola symptoms.
