Jessica Hall, mother of three -- wife of a man currently serving his third tour in Iraq -- gets two years in prison for throwing a cup of ice into a car?
Somebody needs to make a list of some of these cases with insanely harsh punishments that do NOT fit the small insignificant crimes.
Do they all involve black people?
Virginia law defines a cup of ice as a missile. (!)
Ms. Hall threw a cup of ice into a car. No one was hurt by her act of road rage.
Two years?
Somebody remind me. What obscenely authoritarian police state am I living in? Or why don't we just wait a few years and ask Ms. Hall's children, ages 4, 6 and 8?
It may be too much to hope for in Bush country, but the Virginia judge still has a chance to undo this criminally insane punishment.
