Unconscionable. So many different people failed that woman, starting with the police who arrested her.

I was falsely arrested once because I shared the same last name (possibly different spelling) and lived in the same room number but different building of the guy the SP's were looking for. They even looked at my ID first. Then, once they had handcuffed me and paraded me to their squad car past my platoon sergeant and most of my platoon, we got half-way to the station before they read my name and SSN to the dispatch. Oops. Pissed me off to no end, but they still had a better match than these cops in Atlanta.

That said, I can't even imagine rotting in jail for 53 days over something like that. I'm not one to support many lawsuits, but I hope she walks away from this a millionaire.
