Emmett Township Public Safety Officer Ben Hall is being called a hero because he didn't give a 25-year-old mom a ticket after pulling her over because her daughter was in the backseat without a booster seat.
Officer Hall saw Lexi de Lorenzo driving near downtown Battle Creek with her daughter in the back seat. She had a seatbelt on but Michigan law requires a booster seat for children less than 8 years old.

Very nice, but the officer spent too much money.
In Michigan, a 5-year old can use a booster seat, which is far cheaper than a full car seat.

“It was an unforgettable experience,” DeLorenzo said. “I’ve never heard of a cop going out of his way - when he could have easily given me a ticket and made things more difficult. He, out of his own pocket and the kindness of his heart, did something to help me.”

Yup. He solved a problem rather than contributing to it.

Nah... cps only goes after conservative families.
Being a “single mom”, she probably is a democrat.

Sounds like a Fox and Friends type story, that’s why I don’t watch that show.
