I would bet she's "a woman scorned" by one of the firefighters. But what a mind-blowingly stupid way to act out on it.

Firetruck tires are very costly.

Hope Solo really let herself go

That is most likely the reason.

Way, way too high on the crazy axis.

The eyes, the eyes - dead give away.

Bat$hit crazy...

My prediction, this gets bargained away to something like malicious mischief because “no one was harmed” and because she was “victimized” by some firefighter. Everyone is a victim these days it seems of something.

To exacting a full measure punishment for doing something truly repugnant sets an example to others to not repeat.

They say the death penalty does not deter crime. I believe the quick use of the death penalty as opposed to languishing on death row for decades does deter some, I admit some not all, from doing premeditated murders not part of a killer for hire conspiracy. Perhaps doing them in public would make them more of a deterrence too.

Does she work at a tire store? Sick of tires or trying to increase sales?

[imardmd1]

Maybe she’d life to take up residence in Gowanda. Not too far away from Ellicottville.

[Nifster]

Yup....bet there was alcohol or drugs involved

[PAR35]

She can’t even spell Moron correctly. Is she Cretan?

[wally_bert]

I cringed when I had to buy a replacement tire unexpectedly a few weeks ago when a fat nail went through it.

[headstamp 2]

Too bad she didn’t blow her a** off slashing a 150 PSI inflated truck tire.

Really stupid.

Hyphenated last name? Married, maybe, but to what?

Some felons regard prison as a benefit. They are fed, clothed, housed, air conditioned, have televisions, porn and the gays have a wide choice of potential partners.

Prison should be a deterrent. Solitary confinement: darkness in a sound-proof concrete cell should be the housing arrangements for all felons. Those who don't go insane will rue the days for the rest of their lives that they committed a crime.

The word will spread through the criminal underground and crime will drop like a rock.
