May I suggest another option to jailing this Alzheimer’s patient? When did we start treating people with dementia as if they
were criminals who actually know what they are doing?

She is not responsible for her actions, and medical treatment and possibly hospice care may be much more humane for her
than being tossed in the clink with no memory of why she is there.

How about the local churches? My husband’s late aunt had Christian volunteers look in on her for the last months of her life.
She suffered from the same ailment.

This very sick woman and her husband should not spend their golden years with her in jail and him at home alone and unable
to care for himself.

Did you think this through? There are fine Conservative ways to deal with people like this without the jack-booted LEOs and
leftist judges with no ability actually to JUDGE.

There are better ways to keep her from attracting the bears with some guidance from friends and/or church fellowship.

News flash. I have no children. Thanks for reminding me.

I have no children either.
I can’t have any of my own.
And my step-daughter died in a car accident in December 2000 because her ex-boyfriend ran her off the road.

Levinfan also didn’t think it through as to where I myself reside.
We had an invasion of bear due to Corzine with his “Now don’t hunt those bearth!”* said with a lisp
Greenwood Lake [8 to 12 miles away straight line] had problems with pets being eaten by bear.
Lady walking her dog had to flee as her poodle got eaten, she had no choice.

Oh, and we now have an overpopulation of coyote here in NY because you need: A hunting license, with a predator endorsement/license, and a nuisance animal license before you can knock them one!
So guess what, the coyote here are bold, opportunistic scavenging pests that will eat your pets AND attack your children.
But hey, they were brought in to control the deer population!
Which they don’t do.

So I choose to laugh about bird based supervillainy instead.
“Go forth, my pigeony army, and poo on their heads!”

Then I guess we should forceably commit her to care. That is the other option, and one people would be up in arms about too. In neither case can she be allowed to keep up the behavior.
