See it wasn't that hard to pay the fine after all. Now she needs another fund raiser for the new one.

She should have shut up right there, maybe she should have spent the entire weekend in lock up.

Never read so much bullshit in one story before. Its amazing how someone will say so much just to get attention.

Well, lady, that alone is reason enough

It never ceases to amaze me how, when people screw up, the problem is always something or someone else. I guess they just can't take the heat for their own irresponsible actions.

The first thing she should do is grow up, since she has no one to blame for her incarceration, except for herself.

Although she should stop bitching and look on the bright side. For time served she gets credited with time and a half against her sentence.

She got a thin mat?? Bloody Luxury!!!

I bet she'll figure out real quick how to pay the next fine she gets before the ink is even dry!

I remember the first time that I worked in holding cells. One of the constables showed me where the mats and blankets(actually a canvas tarp) were stored for those who were lodged. The smell was quite musty in the room and I asked how often they washed the 'blankets'. I got this incredulous look and he said, '...wash them???'

She got a mat?!?!?!?!....WOW Edmonton cells sound like the Hyatt

Years ago, before the remand centre, I spent more than one week-end in city cells, The 'bunks' were stainlees steel pans, exactly the same as used in the morgues. IF a a fellow didn't cause any problems he could usually count on gettin at least a threadbare blanket!
