yes, that woman who died in police custody at the airport...
Well, now according to CNN, her kin is filing a lawsuit against Phoenix and the city's police department in a 'wrongful death' lawsuit. According to the article, she basically threw a temper tantrum and caused a scene at the airport. She was then detained and placed in a holding cell where she died somehow trying to escape the handcuffs. And it's the police department's fault.
Am I missing something here? I thought suicide or the attempt of it was illegal? I think this is the most frivilous lawsuit i've seen since the McDonalds/Coffee spillage lawsuit a number of years ago. http://www.cnn.com/2008/US/law/03/26...ath/index.html Quote:

I was going to say I hope her family hangs themselves, too, but then I saw that she's a pleasant looking, normal weight white woman--and now I'm so conflicted! OT Self-Righteous Squad, ASSEMBLE!

And, OMG, her hidden mental problem came out at the airport--and the police didn't care for it! WELL BIG FRICKIN DEAL! If you're causing a scene at the airport, and thats the last place you want to do this, there is no time to sit you down and go through your medical history. You get put the **** down, bitch.
That's like if I were to goto the airport and start preaching in the terminal, get busted, and claim that God made me do it. It doesn't ****ing matter, i still get burned. |

She doesn't look disturbed. And if she was disturbed, why was she flying by herself? Where was her guardian? I think the city/police dept should file a counterclaim against her family for being negligent on the 'disturbed' woman's health by letting her run around unattended.

The McDonald's/Coffee lawsuit was not frivolous. You may want to do some research so you don't look foolish in the future talking about something you obviously know nothing about. No offense, I'm just sick of people referring to that lawsuit as if it had no merit or it was frivolous. If you read the facts on it, you can totally see that McDonald's was clearly in the wrong.
As far as this lawsuit goes, good luck. I'd like to see the toxicology report from the coroner, but I'm sure she was on something. You don't just flip out and then die in a jail cell for no reason. |

This stupid whore's family should be charged for the wasted time of the court in bringing such a frivolous lawsuit.

she didn't die for no reason, she "accidentally strangled herself" trying to escape handcuffs. The only thing I can really fault the police for I think is leaving her alone in a cell. Irrational, flipping out people probably shouldn't just be handcuffed and thrown in a cell and then left unwatched. That's jut generally irresponsible, and simply having someone nearby probably would have saved her life. I dunno what I think about the lawsuit side, but there is definitely an element of police irresponsibility there.

Ahhh no! You can thank the family scum who hire a lawyer to sue. Lawyer is just a tool, the family is the one suing. Family obviously feels that the police are culpable in some manner. So you can just thank society as a whole.... |

Apparently, the McDonald's coffee was 'dangerously' hot. Well--define dangerously. And also, she spilled it in her car. Why was she ****ing around with coffee while driving a car? Too bad she didnt cause an accident because SHE would be the one who would be getting ****ed.
