The judge did the right thing to postpone it until she can have a mental evaluation done.

The "malicious destruction of property" charge is just wrong. A little soap and water will clean that right up. At least she acted out in a non-violent manner.

(589 posts)15. I also think it' important to emphasize that even though the reporter
said she began throwing bacon at the officer it really wasn't striking him.
He was behind bullet proof glass .

never realizing they were being given a message.
