May she rest at peace. ACAB always and forever.

I'll tell you that some cops are good people who want to help others. Some are disgusting people on a power trip who want to take out their anger on others. The vast majority aren't bad people, they're just employees working for a paycheck. However, any cop who tried to defend the actions of these inhumane pieces of shit is a bad cop.

The system is bad and allows bad people to do bad things while encouraging good people to join them. The system often punishes those who speak out. Blaming all cops is like treating the symptom instead of the disease. It's not like you throw on a uniform and instantly start shooting black guys in the street. We need reform, we need community service and outreach, we need accountability from a 3rd party, and any good cop would absolutely agree.

Yes but it’s not the Spiced Pear anymore.

Thanks

Thanks!

The Den Den fried chicken restaurant in Providence had fried oysters that were really good. Not sure if they still have them on the menu...

Fried scallops are also extremely popular.

Huge medical malpractice lawsuit. I would guess 20-40x what they get from the municipality.

There really isn't a situation where any kind of trespassing warrants this outcome and this treatment by police. Hospital, buffet, mall, car dealership, etc, etc.

The hospital should be sued. She is not in condition to leave as she died right there.

There are scenarios where qualified immunity is relevant and problematic, but offering protection to someone taking a doctor’s advice on a medical issue ain’t one. They were told by medical professionals that she was fine and faking it, and that they wanted her removed from the premises.

It’d be one thing if it was an all you can eat buffet trespassing her, but someone making a decision based on an expert’s qualified advice is meeting a much higher burden of care than what qualified immunity exists to protect.

I’m sure there are some social workers who would ignore the doctors’ finding, but I expect they’re few and far between.

>Wouldn’t it have been faster to have someone reevaluate her then tell the officers with her able to hear it?

She was arrested at a hospital. At the request of the doctors there. Because she refused to leave.

So no. Probably not.

The only good part is people being aware of this in Rhode Island independently of the fact that she's from here. More people need to see stories like this if anything will ever change.

Not sure about eb I got some friends who say it’s not bad some say it sucks but I never worked there. But being an electrician is easy physically and very fun imo. Also take my ratings if hardness with a grain of salt cause I’m 19 so I can take a beating a bit better than a 40yo.

Massive medical malpractice lawsuit, possibly a lawsuit against the City or town as well. Saw this grim story the other day, didn’t say where she was from originally, this is a national story. The footage is disturbing, scary and incomprehensible.

Don't forget California

Unfortunately the family will never find peace. Doesn’t matter if one or all of the cops are fired, or they get some sort of financial decision made in their favor. Wouldn’t it have been faster to have someone reevaluate her then tell the officers with her able to hear it? No, cause it’s their way or their way. The way she was treated and laughed at for everyone to see is just disgusting. Imagine what was being said off camera?

U mean spiced pear?

Thank god. I was going to be pretty angry if they tried to keep those inflated rates now that natural gas has come back down from the peak

I saw this the other day but didn’t realize the RI connection. Truly so sad to see someone’s final moments, while at a hospital surrounded by people meant to be public servants.

It’s overpriced bland Sysco food. Plenty of other places that have fresh seafood and actual good menus

So friggen true. I lived in Newport for years and it would never cross my mind to send someone there.

How is it funny or dumb to talk about parades in a post concerning parades? That’s all I’ve been doing and you’ve been here rude the entire time.
