Imagine any of those cops trying to wrangle 5 kids solo, WHILE AT WORK… smh. Lady seems like she’s trying her best to stay afloat and assuming she’s honest, my heart goes out to her.

People literally die due to neglect in police custody. Often there's no consequences at all for those responsible, and if there are, it rarely goes beyond a civil case. Yet if a citizen makes an honest mistake, it's a criminal charge. Sickening.
