Housekeeper Who Stole a Bag of Frozen Meatballs Facing As Much Jail Time As Steubenville Rapist

Why do we stand by this absurd criminal justice system?

A housekeeper at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point is facing two years in jail for allegedly stealing a bag of meatballs. Estelle Casimir, 56, who had been working for West Point’s food service company, Watson Services, for 28 years, was purportedly seen carrying the bag in an area where she doesn’t work. According to an affidavit, when supervisors approached Casimir and questioned her about the bag she was carrying, she told them she was throwing it in the garbage. Casimir was reportedly only responsible for cleaning the latrines in the mess hall, not disposing of food, and according to supervisors, could have thrown the bag in a closer garbage instead of the downstairs dumpster she said she was headed to.

And if you bring cigarettes over state lines it's even longer than that!

I would hesitate to post any "news" from this leftist propaganda rag that cites "Gawker" for its source. I have never figured out why there are outrageous leftist and usually untrue posts here occasionally. Trying to be "fair and balanced" I suppose. I would settle for true and true.
