S2 E170-The Police State Arresting Criminals One Grandma At A Time

Notes & Links

The police state of Guildford brought a 59-year-old grandmother to court for breaking eggs. Alissa Ash was arrested for breaking eggs after an argument she had with her mother.  The argument occurred at the home of her mother and the police were summoned to calm the pair down.  According to the police they wanted to issue Alissa a caution but she refused to accept it, so they arrested her for criminal damage.  Fortunately for Ash, the judge dismissed the case because he could not find any criminality in her action.  Fiorella asks why are the cops more worried about broken eggs instead of the rampant crime? She breaks down this story and she talks about handbags on this episode of The Early Show.
