Jennifer Lien In Legal Trouble Again

[Guy Gardener]

I've gone back on my vilification of Carey, but I've seen too many episodes of COPs not to think that Americans like to pick fights for no reason. I am actually amazed that no one shot Jennifer.

Carey should have walked away, and maybe she did, but this lady comes across as way more sincere and less sinister on a news report than she does in blank text. I'm more prone to believe now that Jennifer was yelling and stripping for no reason pinned to reality at all.

At the end of the day Carey probably did Lien a favor. Something has to give, or call the cops for a person to get help and unfortunately for some woman with a couple kids she is now discussed on a BBS because she was the one who picked up a phone. And now Lien is in some kind of medical care.

If Jennifer can prove mental issues, and that she is seeking help plus medication, it's possible that she can side step some of the charges she is facing depending on who the judge is listening to her case.

Also her neighbours weren't trying to help Jennifer when they called the cops. They were trying to throw her down a well permenantly. The consideration had to be "We are not safe, let's send her up the river for ten to 15 years, afterwhich we will be safe."

That she got help, is a happy accident.

If Jennifer is free in 4 months, and back in the same house, her neighbours failed to destroy her once and will most certainly might try again. If she was renting, I doubt the same house is still available to her. If she owned the place, Jennifer is going to be the worst neighbour ever inside the limits of what is legal.

"failed to destroy her"? I dunno, I think if someone walks into your home, starts saying vulgar things, is aggressive and then strips in front of your kids you are not trying to destroy her you are trying to get her the fuck out of your face when you call the cops.

Jail = Destroyed. It's not a stretch.

Yes, Carey and her friends probably responded appropriately.

Jennifer Lein rammed a police car for giving her a speeding ticket.

What is unhinged Jennifer's appropriate response to being confined to a jail cell for 20 years, or narrowly avoiding 20 years of imprisonment?

Obviously the appropriate response is to move as far away from these people as possible and pretend they don't exist. If she had to see them again however, maybe Jennifer should apologise for her actions, but any sane person would burn a court house down before thanking her neighbours for the last 5 months she's spent in jail.

I swear there must be something special in the water in Florida.

I've read that the broad definition of sex offenders - including people like Jennifer who flash their boobs or someone who got caught urinating in an alley while drunk - overflows the registry so that it's difficult to access those resources to actually track real sexual predators. Jennifer sounds like she needs help, not punishment, and putting a woman on a sex offender registry for flashing her breasts doesn't seem like it's in anyone's best interests.

Again, all of this focus given to the flashing incident and not the arrests in April, is misguided IMO. The former, where she was trying to elude the police in a chase and then ramming cruisers with police inside, constitute a set of felonies, aside from which, her behavior could easily have gotten her killed. We know it can take much, much less in certain circumstances. This latter thing is just piffle in comparison, though what wouldn't be piffle would be placed on a sex offender list. My sense is that she is not going to be found guilty on any of the charges. The fairly quick commitment to the psychiatric hospital in Chattanooga and the repeated continuances (3 now I believe) suggest that the outcome will be a continuing and rigourous treatment plan, but with serious consequences for any lapses. Such a result is somewhat surprising given the reputation that the state rates from many people, considering the near complete loss of psychiatric hospitals and consequent warehousing of the mentally ill in jails (though probably not materially different than in many other states). Also, the fact that, through a mediated settlement, she was able to escape incarceration once already, in the domestic abuse case involving her mother.

This may very well be a last chance scenario and I can only hope that this period of months of quietude, and presumably consistent treatment, has afforded Jennifer the ability to view things with a clarity of perspective and an even balanced view of how positive a potentially illness free future might look.
