I remember a few years ago that Rick Thompson would arrest "serious criminals" and require them to be handcuffed. He did this to one lady who was arrested for an overdue library fine. Now here's some deputies with a bad check writer and no handcuffs. What's the policy?

For the record, this picture came from the Shoals Insider:

Heck yeah!Get you some of that.
I agree. The policeman made a judgment call. I imagine that some departments may have a "no judgment call" rule. But the officer is probably being nice and maybe he will have some influence. It is amazing how many policeman I know that simply wish to help people with small problems. If people would simply follow the law, which in many cases is common logic, then the policmen would only be out there helping somebody who is ill or such things. There are always a few bad apples, but that is true of any group.

I wonder if she wrote a bad check to buy those pink house shoes and stretch pants.


Big Grin Maybe she was arrested for the shoes and not the checks.


If not, they should tack on another charge, something like wearing pink house shoes in public.


Dont you think she was sitting at home and not expecting the law to come take her away ? Jimbo you didnt like it when people picked on you about the onion peels ,why do you want to do the same thing ? Roll Eyes

Sorry Fir, I hit a nerve with the stretch pants. My bad.
Are we sure she isn't handcuffed in the front and because she is trying to cover her face with her jacket -- we just can't see the cuffs...

Maybe the public humiliation of being "arrested" and taken to jail in your lounge wear and pink fuzzy slippers will make her think twice before stealing next time...yes, folks, I called a spade a spade -- she's a thief...

as for the sitting at home not thinking they would come get her? They announced to the world that they were doing the round up -- how could she not know?
