AFAIK she was not transported to a dangerous neighborhood and dropped off there, she was simply released at the location where she was in custody. IOW, treated like anybody else.

The logic of the lawsuit is that since she was white and female, she should have been transported to a “safer neighborhood” before release. IOW, treated differently and afforded greater consideration than if she had happened to be black and/or male.

Wouldn’t that have been racial discrimination? Isn’t the assumption that she couldn’t be safe in that area a type of “locale profiling,” and/or discrimination against the inhabitants?

This is standard operating procedure in big cities. A friend’s car was stolen and when he reported it the cops came, took him to a station where the car was found, did the report and then he had to make his own way back home. The car was not driveable.

He was under the impression that they would take him back home. When he asked they said they were busy. It was a good thing he had a train card.
