(August 30, 2006)—Anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan’s stay this month in Central Texas has not been a pleasant one.
First she was admitted to a local hospital for treatment of exhaustion and dehydration and to undergo gynecological tests. Last week she underwent a hysterectomy.
Then Tuesday night police from the Waco suburb of Woodway arrested her near Crawford on traffic warrants.
She was cited for following too closely and failure to appear.
Sheehan was released after she paid a $400 fine.
She plans to remain here through Labor Day, but then she and other anti-war demonstrators are planning to shift their protests to Washington, D.C.
The planned protests and events will be known as Camp Democracy, organizers announced Tuesday during a news conference in Washington, D.C.
The protests will begin on Sept. 5 and will run through Sept. 21.

It's all about her. Traffic fines are for the "little" people.

Failure to appear???!!!! Geez, did she forget she was coming back.
"Following too closely" usually means an accident.

"....traffic warrants.... following too close.... and failure to appear."
Absolutely thumbing her nose at the legal system. Exactly who does this looser think she is? I hope they give her the maximum penalty for all of the above.
Failure to appear in most jurisdictions results in an immediate arrest warrant and potential jail time.

...and to undergo gynecological tests...Ewwww.
