I'm mad today. I have a stepson who is totally blind. Last summer we caught his home health care worker stealing money from him and using his food stamp card for herself. (he is raising three kids alone). When arrested, she admitted stealing the money. That was August, she wasn't charged until October. This June, they dropped the charges, with not even any restitution. She had stolen from two other clients who declined to press charges. Without a conviction she can continue in the field.
 
I haven't been around here for awhile, so hi again!
Floorist, I'm very sorry to hear that about the thieving healtchare provider. People like that are so disgusting. Stealing is wrong to begin with, but stealing from people who are that vulnerable is really low.

It is doubly sad that she got away with it and can probably continue to do it to others. Meanwhile, there are people who get coerced in to making plea deals for crimes they didn't commit who end up spending a lot of time in jail. The law is sometimes arbitrarily applied. Usually the more money or power a person has, the less likely they are to be indicted.
 
Yeah, the cycle of violence is just ugly. The son of one of the victims (I think the one from Baton Rouge) came out and gave a speech about how he wanted people to do their protesting in a peaceful and legal manner. But there is too much anger and irrationality and then you have hatemongers encouraging even more violence instead.
