This woman used to live in my town. She certainly has been a headline grabber over the years. She ran such an aggressive campaign asState Director for Ross Perot that she became the last worker standing long before the election was ever held.
Then she was arrested and convicted for dognapping pure-bred dogs right out of their owners' back yards, neutering them, and selling them across state lines.
One sad aspect of her very sad life was when her mother was killed by a teen driver in a hit/run accident while walking near Cindy's home. The teen was fumbling with a tape or a CD player in her car, changing the music. When she looked up, Cindy's elderly mother was walking right into her path.
It does not excuse the SWAT tactics of the DNR. They would have done the same to an unimpeachable saint.
We need to seriously consider the value of anonymous "tip lines". It seems to me that they are mainly used to harass people and settle scores.
