A Maine nurse back from treating Ebola patients in West Africa followed through on her vow to defy the state's "voluntary" quarantine on Thursday, leaving her home for a bike ride.
Kaci Hickox and her boyfriend stepped out of their home Thursday morning and rode away on mountain bikes, followed by state police cruiser.
There was no immediate comment from state health officials, who were going to court in an effort to detain Hickox for the remainder of the 21-day incubation period for Ebola that ends on Nov. 10. Police were monitoring her movements but couldn't detain her without a court order signed by a judge.
The end of the 21-day period would be Nov. 10.
Hickox, accompanied by her boyfriend, Ted Wilbur, earlier met with the media late Wednesday in the driveway of her home in Fort Kent, and said she will not observe the quarantine directive. The nurse, who returned from Sierra Leone last week after working with Doctors Without Borders, said that she had made no progress in her attempts to negotiate an end to her quarantine with state officials.
If a judge grants the state request, then Hickox will appeal the decision on constitutional grounds, necessitating a hearing, Hickox attorney Norman Siegel said....

Where’s an out of control cop when you actually need one? /S
Would be a shame if there were a hunting accident.
I wonder if she will be able to get a job after this stunt. Probably, but if I was reading her resume as a potential employer I would have second thoughts about hiring her.
She seems to be more of a political hack than a nurse. Does anyone know for sure if she really is a nurse.
Due Process, my Friends in Liberty, it is all about freedom, yet with responsibility.
This is fake defiance.
If she really wanted to make a statement, they should have headed straight to the mall.
A bike ride is fairly safe, but if they’d gone to a crowded area it would be more obvious how self-centered she is, plus the public would WANT the law to arrest her.
This woman has done one thing at least. She has Americans of all political backgrounds hating her guts. This woman is enjoying the spotlight and milking it for all its worth. She’s a disgusting human being. Sadly, she represents the America of today and the all about me and I’m first mentality.
Arrest her butt... Selfish harpy.
This woman has to be a leftist.
If she pulled this stunt in Texas, the State Board Would pull her license and the cops would arrest and jail her.
She should be GRATEFUL there’s a Maine State Trooper watching her home. Because if not, I would NOT be surprised if somebody set the place on fire, or similar. . .
Now we witness why liberals are despised.
Barack Obama and Eric Holder have set the example.
They have demonstrated by their actions that we are no longer a nation of laws.
It’s the Leftist Mantra - “If It Feels Good Do It!”
IT’S ALL ABOUT ME.....
People no longer have to keep promises or oaths, or obey laws, rules and regulations if they don’t want to.
That is, unless they are Christians, Heterosexuals, Conservatives or other out of favor cultural groups.
If you are not members of a leftist victim group or generous financial supporters of Obama you have no place in ObamaWorld .
Somebody throw out a spike mat.
If she tries to enter a business and the owner doesn’t want to let her enter, I wonder if she would sue them for discrimination.
LOL Shoot her dog every time she leaves the house. /s
I wonder if people can sue her for violating the quarantine and making them feel less safe.
This self-centered moron “nurse” is a typical LIB asshat...soon she’ll be a typical DIM moonbat. I bet the DIMs have plans for her within the idiot (DIM) party.
It would be a greater shame if she were to die of projectile diarrhea in the next hour.
Alone,of course....because no ambulance driver (or relative) was willing to get within 500 yards of her.
