Doing Things By the Book!
Heidi Dalibor from Grafton in Wisconsin has been arrested and booked for not paying her library fines. Although Dalibor had ignored calls from the library, together with their letters and a notice to appear in court, she was still surprised when officers with a warrant knocked on her door, cuffed her and took her to the police station to be fingerprinted and photographed
The 'criminal' had to pay around $30 in unpaid library fines; it cost her mother rather more, at $172, to get her out of custody.
So what marvelous tomes of knowledge cost the Dalibor's over $200 for the pleasure of reading? White Oleander and Angels and Demons. Oh, dear; it wouldn't have been quite so bad if it had been great literature that had cost her so dear.
I dread to think what this literary escapade cost the State.
