LOL! More guaranteed income for lawyers. The city and the police department will still get sued, the lawyers will still get paid and we will still be stripping stupid/crazy/drunk people naked if they make statements of self harm. This is a sane response to an insane tort system.
But this woman will get paid by taxpayers for being a stupid obnoxious drunk. Wanna bet she blacked out and has no memory of the entire evening and was horrified to wake up naked in a holding cell? Wanna bet she denies ANY contributory responsibility for her predicament?
Insane tort culture + victimhood culture = thugocracy and you think the TLA has no share in it? You're a fool.
There is zero evidence — zero — that this woman was either drunk or stupid, as you assert.
I saw nothing from the text that refuted what the article said about her: she was the victim of an assault, and then the victim of a stupid twit of a cop that couldn’t tell the difference between perp and victim.
If you have any such evidence, produce it.
Otherwise, I think you are firmly establishing yourself as the bona fide fool.
No, she will get paid by taxpayers because she encountered a herd of stupid obnoxious cops.
Do you realize that the US Supreme Court held in Bad Elk v. United States, 177 U.S. 529 that it was permissible (or at least defensible) to shoot an officer who displays a gun with intent to commit a warrantless arrest based on insufficient cause. It ruled that (police) officers who executed an arrest without proper warrant were themselves considered trespassers, and any trespassee had a right to violently resist (or even assault and batter) an officer to evade such arrest.
