[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] [b]Personally , I think the real unsung heroes  in this whole ordeal is the Irvine police department [/b]. This is precisely what the job of a police officer should be like , professional at all times , impartial , immune to individuals and their perceived socio economic statuses .

However , this being America I can't help it but think a minority woman wouldn't have benefited from the presumption of innocence, doubts, empathy and goodwill that Kelli Peters benefited from . You're welcome to prove me wrong [/quote]

I disagree.  I think the Irvine PD went on a relatively wild goose chase to prosecute the Easters.  I think it's great that they immediately saw that PTA mom was framed and did not charge her.  BUT, it seems like they expended a LOT of resources in getting the Easters and I don't think they were really worth it.  Crazy, yes, but probably not all that harmful, especially since no one believed their stupid plant.  Seems like much ado about very little. [/quote]

You do realize the PTA mom could have lost custody of her kids, right? This couple was trying to ruin her life.

The reason the police had to devote so many resources is because the couple was almost bullet proof with their knowledge of the law, their money, and their legal connections. Without a lot of persistence on the part of the police, they would have gotten away scot free and then what? Reformed? Decided to change their ways? Who knows what they were capable of. [/quote]

[b]If they were willing to go to such lengths over absolutely nothing... They were a true danger and menace to that community. [/b][/quote]

+1 PREACH.  [/quote]
