Policewoman Goes To Jail Because She Couldn't Be Bothered To Arrest A Suspect

Firing her was the right thing to do. There are a few females in Law Enforcement that have passed all the tests, but cannot and do not apply what they have learned. Many just want the uniform and pay. Oh! yes there are some males officers that perform the same as she.. Many women police officer know their physical limitations and play it safe. I don't think she deserve a year in jail, but 48 hours would have been eniough and the lost of her job. I've worked with two female officers and did feel secure working with them, and requested not to work again with them as a partner. They enventually quit.

well it is fair as she had a job to do and if she felt she was incapable of doing her job she should have called back up then resigned. It is about time we hold others such ass law enforcement accountable as delivering mail could have waited. What if there was someone there that had interrupted the burglary and as a result was killed she could also be facing accessory to murder charges. Duh.

It seems the sentence is overly punitive; this Sheriff's Officer should have been specially reprimanded, never sent to jail. Disgraceful.

It's a normal thing here in m'sia to ignore crimes in progress and continue down the street for a cuppa....or doughnut...Heck, we can even say"it's not my job" to a complainant n send the grumbling home.....and continue texting or chatting over the phone.....so, i dont see whats the big deal here...she did confiscate the tools n prevented a break in....she would have been commended if she was in m'sia...for actually doing something.....hahahahahhaha

Wow, a year in prison! Talk about over kill. Come on! What about when cops give warning tickets to speeding drivers?

It was certainly a mistake, but in jail for a year! That's ridiculous, especially if she had an otherwise good record. Perhaps she should have lost her job, but a year in prison? Whew! That's a waste of prison space in my opinion.

who the hell does this a&&wipe think she is??!! QUEEN BE-OTCH COMES TO MIND STRAIGHT AWAY!

good...some ppl are not cut out for police.....although many are STILL on forces all across the country. That is also a career that has failed on many levels.

males will always fire women for bullshit .. the officer took the tools, he did not commit another crime .. had a male done the same thing he would still be on the force .. that partner is a dumb bunny, she has bad karma now .. she must always look over her shoulder, no one likes a petty, young & self-important co- worker .. what a jerk maley turned out to be.

why can't we get that kind of Justice here in the states? police abuse their power and authority every day and they get paid vacations and cushy desk jobs until everything blows over.
