I tend to agree on some level with Sebby that she is not being treated the way any schmoe off the street would be treated. If course, it probably takes harsher treatment for her in order to get it through her entitled head that she has to listen to a judge and not continually blatently break the law as if there are no ramifications.
Was her sentence reduced to 23 days when she was there and now they've increased it back to the original? I admit - I haven't been following this. Surprise!
ETA: maybe scapegoat was the wrong phrase. Whatever. You've convinced me to go back to working today, so thanks.

So why do they take away her 22 days for good behavior? It was the Sheriff who let her out - it's not like she made a run for it.
I'm happy to see her serve her sentence, but I think the extra time should be done by the Sheriff.
