Snickering Hound posted some interesting photos to say the least, are the guys in the photos some of the cops involved??

Seeing the beautiful women with bright smiles reminds me of a beautiful young woman at county court one day while as bailiff I spoke with after she had been assessed her punishment for DWI (this in central Texas).

She was alone, no friends or family, about mid-20s. I asked her if she was okay (people get their cages rattled when convicted of DWI, DUI, PI and other high misdemeanors), she was waiting for me to get her files and take her to probation to get lined out. Heavy fines, sometimes jail terms, a year or two probation, fees upon fees attached, heavy fines, the list is long and painful and I’ve seen many times the defendant being jailed for the 180 days if they violate probation terms (Texas remember?), so it’s no joke NOR a slap on the wrist.

She said that she was “buddies” with some local cops. She palled around with them and always laughed at their funny stories about arresting DWIs and others in alcohol related offenses. Then she got pensive and said, “Now, I guess they’re telling funny stories about me now...”. None of her “buddies” were there (even in plain clothes) for support, a hard lesson in life. I hope she does well after this is over, I think she will.

That young woman on the trunk might ought to be told but I doubt she’d listen anyway, she thinks those guys are too cool and their neat guns, patrol units, radios and funny stories...

I'm not trying to push any buttons but what exactly do you think the waitress did that was so wrong?
