Lord have mercy.

[ARCADIA]

you're bound to make $millions$ by those trying to uphold it who make one mistake.

How does something like this mistakenly happen? It takes real work to get so many people of sub-normal intelligence into little blue suits and badges, that there is little probability that it happened purely by chance.

[Squantos]

Ahhhh come on I thought it was funny ! ......:o)

Hows Wardaddy BTW ??

[cyborg]

LOL me thinks he's fine. He's got a good woman taking care of him.

[thathamiltonwoman]

First Nichols and now this. I'm staying the heck out of Fulton County.

[Squantos]

Okie Dokie.........Stay safe !

[FlJoePa]

Sounds like a Linda Blair movie.

Ten million sounds a little light to me.

Let me suggest a compromise. Let's give the lady $100,000 to cover her legal fees, and then use the rest to prosecute and jail a dozen of these "cops". They should each serve 10 years in the general population of a maximum security prison. I am almost sure that this will get the needed message across to the department. That way, the next time an officer walks into something like this, they should have no problem deciding on what needs to be done, and how fast it needs to take place.

Her behavior was probably the mitigating factor. Just because she says she wasn't covered up doesn't mean she wasn't covered up. Drug addicts lie.

Good points. However, Law Enforcement lies also.

Interesting to see where this goes...

Everyone involved here is black.

Except for the people expected to fork over $10 million. That money won't be extracted from the perpetrators. The deep pockets of the taxpayers will be ravaged.

Hmmmm...where does the money for the "police budget" come from? hahaha FMCDH(BITS)

No - You weren't following me correctly! - I was saying it the money paid out (lost to this victim) should come out of the ALREADY existing police budget (thus them doing with less) - It should not simply be paid by the tax-payers additionally onto what we already pay to the police department -

You see, this is how it works. Police are sued, they lose and the only real consequence is to the tax-payers ...not to that individual police department - If a police department is sued and losing (in a case such as this) that police department should actually feel the hit! (meaning, no new cars for X number of years, no new uniforms for X number of years, etc, etc - Police departments today get new toys and new gadgets about every month - this should stop and especially STOP in police departments where lawsuits have been lost!).

This is not Iraq under Saddam. No one deserves this treatment. There are isolation rooms for a reason.

[fso301]

Without actual pictures, I can't comment on the merits of her case.

[Joe Miner]

Would it be possible that a large part of the judgment be used only to fund nice private schools for her five children and a nice egg roll when they graduated from college?

Are they Chinese?

If you can show me 2 cases where a large city's police budget that has taken a hit by a lawsuit, and not reimbursed through a higher budget the next year, I'll agree with you. It don't happen my FRiend.

You know, this is the problem with many citizens who say "I don't want my tax money to pay for this (whatever)!! The government should pay for it!"....We are the "government" when it comes to paying governmental expenses. Other than that, the "gubbmint" doesn't have use for us at all.

People make me laugh when they say "the 'Gubbmint' should pay". It's still YOUR FREAKIN' MONEY!

These things cannot happen unless Bush authorizes them. We must find the memo.

Have you looked in Sandy Bergers britches ? Maybe he grabbed it by mistake last time he was in the archives ...

[YOUGOTIT]

Then why did they fire the jail super?????????

[Chapita]

I wouldn't be leering at a white woman, much less a black! I don't want anything that a woman doesn't want to give - even peeks.

"Drug Addics Lie"

Not as much as the police lately.
