Stupid Crook News: On the Highway to Jail

This made me laugh.  Ironically surely 'cause neighbor behind me calls police if my music plays 1 minute past 9 pm, even with Johnny Cash version of "Hurt."

At tender age of 54, have learned needless assertion of my Constitutional rights does not make up for a night in jail.  Before that happened, I bought headphones.

I don't mind getting arrested, but incarceration sucks: you get bad food, hotel staff has a bad attitude, and you can't check out when you want.


[The Associated Press
EPPING, N.H. —

Authorities say a New Hampshire woman has been arrested four times in 26 hours for blasting the AC/DC song "Highway to Hell" and other loud music from her home and for throwing a frying pan.

Police first issued a warning to Joyce Coffey on Tuesday afternoon at her home in Epping. They say they were called back an hour later and arrested her for the loud music.

Police say Coffey was arrested again five hours later. She was released and arrested again before dawn Wednesday over more loud music.

Police arrested her again after her nephew said he tried to remove some of his belongings from her house and she threw the frying pan at him.

Coffey was jailed Friday and couldn't be reached for comment. WMUR-TV reports a judge has recommended she use headphones.]
