If you don’t agree with us, you must be crazy. Right?

I'd rather be violently raped 7 times or more than serve 3 years….which also makes me think that rape sentences are also way to long!
Who Ever
It's not as bizarre as one might think. More than a decade ago, I had just moved into a new apartment after having lived with my mom before that. Incidentally, one of the people who had lived there before me happened to have the same first name. I had been getting mail from the two former tenants of that apartment, as one always does in apartments but I didn't think anything of it.
For some reason, there was all this drama just to get the electricity turned on there but I had an ice chest and I didn't think anything of it. Next thing I know, the electric company has added more than $100 to my bill! They claim it was unpaid charges even though I had paid them on time every time in the apartment I had lived at several years before then. I spent all this time on the phone with them but they wouldn't believe that I was someone different than the person with the same first name who had lived in that apartment before me because you know how we women are just getting married and changing our last names (and oh did that one piss me off!). I had to dig up my birth certificate, plus the apartment management vouched for me in order to get those charges dismissed.
Just when I thought that fiasco was over, a police officer knocked at my door and I had no chance but to open it because my best friend was at my house and she had gone out back to smoke so I obviously couldn't pretend to not be home. The cop asked me what my name was, and not thinking about the recent fiasco with the electric company, I told him my first name. The next thing I know, I'm getting handcuffed for some warrant for grand theft and I was sure I'd never ever stolen that much in my entire lifetime (even though I stole like maybe two small food items when I was a teenager). I wasn't smart enough to take my keys and lock the door behind me when dealing with police so, the next thing I know, I'm in handcuffs in my own house, my ID is in the bedroom along with my bong that was sitting in plain view in there, so I figured I'm going to jail no matter what. Luckily, this cop was somewhat reasonable, probably because I'm a white woman, so he let my best friend verify my actual last name and then he uncured me and let me go get my ID for proof. He did tell me not to get the gun my dad had given me (even though neither of my parents are gun people and I've never owned a gun). I was just glad the cop didn't go in my bedroom and see my bong. So I got my ID, proved who I am, and that's the only time a police officer has ever apologized to me. I told him I appreciated his apology and told him to make sure another cop doesn't come and do the same thing. Then I wished him safety in his job because it showed a lot of respect for me as a citizen for him to actually apologize and I'm sure he was sent by his department who was convinced I was the person they were looking for and that it wasn't his personal mistake.
After the cop left, I knew the name of the other person because I kept getting her mail, so I looked her up on Facebook and, had the cops done that, they should have been able to tell instantly that it wasn't me because I have a much heavier bone structure than that woman. It sure would be nice if they did more research before assuming one person is someone else. I will say that I'm really thankful (and actually surprised) that I didn't get taken downtown just on a first name basis alone.

Every person involved in this, the police officers, the hospital staff, the attorneys should spend 3 years in prison.

Excellent t-shirt and perfectly logical to anyone who can play cricket.

How much money was involved, meaning the arrested person, who was he supposed to be , a rich dude? From the sounds of the narrative by Steve, the police, the mental hospital, the doctor"s are all very guilty of stealing this man's life for three years , drugging him, confining him. This is a total breakdown in the so called system. No, this sounds like a payoff to a public official(speculation) the entire mess will blow up in a massive lawsuit. I do not care about the over worked people, you are still guilty of gross abuse, 3-5 minutes of Google time. I do not care the reason, or excuses , they are all guilty of several crimes.

To me that's criminal negligence by everyone involved.

The only way I'd believe he is crazy is if he doesn't sue.

This is why being poor in America is a fucking death sentence.
