MandyGirl Posted June 21, 2004 #1 Share Posted June 21, 2004 You guys might have seen this already, but I just came across it. Not a good way to end a cruise... http://www.cnn.com/2004/LAW/06/18/marshmallows.ap/index.html ~ Mandy NCL Sky 12/2000 - Western Caribbean Celebrity Galaxy 12/2001 - Southern Caribbean S/S Norway 03/2003 wedding cruise - Eastern Caribbean ~~~~~ Married on the beach in St John! ~~~~~ HAL ms Maasdam 11/23/2003 - Western Caribbean HAL Zuiderdam 11/2004 - Eastern Caribbean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Anorak33 Posted June 21, 2004 #3 Share Posted June 21, 2004 But Mandygirl - she apparently HAD paid her fine before cruising according to your link. "U.S. Magistrate Judge John O'Sullivan, who had a copy of a citation indicating the fine had been paid, apologized to Clarke, who spent nearly nine hours in detention, and demanded that the U.S. attorney's office determine what went wrong" Just another occurrence of US law enforcement agencies not checking their facts yet again. And do they really need to shackle people for alleged nonpayment of a $50 fine? Are they still in the Dark Ages? Does this seem reasonable to US citizens on this board or am I out of line on this?

elmorejj Posted June 21, 2004 #4 Share Posted June 21, 2004 OOHH, I`m glad I don`t have any tickets!!! I for one don`t see a need for leg shackles, isn`t handcuffs enough? Everyone who takes teenagers cruising, make sure they don`t have any outstanding parking or speeding tickets. We all know how moms and dads are the last to find out when our kids get a ticket!!!....jean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sue's Mom Posted June 22, 2004 #7 Share Posted June 22, 2004 And all for $50 which had already been paid anyway! Haven't they got better things to do and people to chase? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
