Being tired isn’t an excuse for a lighter sentence, it should be an excuse to give her a heavier sentence. She is/was a sworn officer of the law. She should know the dangers of exhaustion in her job, and yet she wanted more time. And her supervisors granted it, which makes them liable in the death as well.

I am really concerned about evidence tampering regarding the locks, her toxicology reports and well, everything.

You missed step one:

Remember kids to stay up 24 hours before committing murder, after all, “being sleep deprived” is now apparently an acceptable defense for criminal activity

If they let her slide because of that bullshit overtime excuse then cops should be immediately barred from working overtime. In fact they should be barred from holding any job outside of their regular schedule if the chance of overwork means they will potentially make a fatal “error”.

Lets see how that flies with the…

I know Chris and this take is 100 percent correct. She is competent, just and fair. She probably told him that he’d have to start doing his job correctly and held him accountable for his actions.

Ah, the sweet, sweet sound of unearned privilege being revoked.

In my experience, nothing makes a misogynist, half-assing dude go from zero to sputtering Kavanaugh than a woman finally holding him accountable at work.

Truth really is stranger than fiction! This family is evidence of that. So fascinating! I’ve recommended biographies of them to people for years.

A few other choice nuggets from the Outside article:

Yup. More specifically, by a single member of the club. There was only one complainant in the grievance filed against her--a guy whose main complaint was that she punished him on the multiple occasions that he refused to do his job. smh. 

Yeah, weird, isn’t it. In the hierarchy of private universities in CA, Stanford by far outstands USC. If you’re in the know, USCs sole advantage has been it’s fundraising system which makes everyone else in the country (with the exception of Harvard and Yale and maybe a few others) look like noobs. Otherwise, Stanford…

That one baffles me, since not only is she claiming that she would’ve been accepted at USC if not for this bribery scam (possible! Not likely or provable, yet possible), but also saying that had she been accepted to USC, she would’ve gone there instead of Stanford. Don’t get me wrong, USC is a good school, but unless…

Nancy’s two most popular books -- Love in a Cold Climate and The Pursuit of Love - have been turned into TV series, and these were more or less auto-biographical.  The Radlett family in Nancy’s books is the Mitford family.  

YES. “Betraying” her makes it sound like Nancy revealed a secret entrusted to her. Everyone knew Diana was a Nazi — she bragged about it to the end of her life. She used to swan around the pre-WW II Nazi rallies in Germany, in black leather, making the Nazi salute with her sister Unity who was, I’m sorry to say,…

Diana wasn’t the second eldest, you forgot about Pam!  Poor Pam.  Everyone forgets about her.

“No One Betrays You Like Your Sister”

I am a shameless Mitford junkie. I have read all the books by all the sisters and all the books about the sisters, including a very trashy one called Unity Mitford: A Quest. They never fail to astonish, horrify, and delight. Though I believe Debo (later the Duchess of Devonshire) is my favourite, I can’t help but…

Jessica was my favorite Mitford, although I have a special place for Deborah as she married the Duke of Devonshire. Don’t forget that Unity was conceived in Swastika, Canada!

I am absolutely obsessed with the Mitfords, especially Jessica (who I met and who complimented me on a review I wrote of one of her books and I almost DIIIEEEDD yes I’m bragging because it is the most awesome thing that ever happened to me). Her memoir, Hons and Rebels (sometimes published as Sisters and Rebels), is…
