I think we all agree, that there is a pretty high probability that rosy is not genuine, but my point was merely, that while expresing legitimate doubts, there is no harm in giving her common sense advice, just on that very small probability that her question was genuine.
If it wasn't, well, the troll can just see what a helpful bunch of people we are.
One does indeed wonder how she found FR, if she doesn't have enough sense to inquire at the right places, and a lot of the story is peculiar, such as why would they arrest her, if her brother was beating her up and so on.
I think if she is a troll, she may have been expecting FReepers to jump and suggest violence, as in going and preemptively terminating her violent brother. Instead, FReepers acted very responsively in giving her legal, reasonable, helpful advice.
So -- troll or not, no harm done, whatever the original intent may have been.
I agree that she should be, and has been honestly and legitamately answered. Should not be Zotted yet. I just don't recall of any adult brother perpetuating harm on his sister- have never heard of this. Hubbies, Ex'es, boyfriends, fathers, yes.
