What about the part where she said she needed special assistance in order to take the stand because she lost her hearing. OMG.

Fixed.
Have you read the story? Both parties are white. One (the criminal) is much richer than the other. It has nothing to do with race.
+1.
There's obviously some racist die-hards still around us
I don't know. Both parties are white but do you really think that if this had happened at an inner city LA school and the PTA volunteer was black and poor that the cop would have been looking for reasons to exonerate? I think that is PP's point. The woman being an older frail white woman living in Irvine is the primary reason the cop thought twice about it.
And I'm a white woman FWIW.
You may not know, but white women can be crazy too. Like the one who committed the crime depicted in the article. Or, apparently, like you.
Read the article and you'll see that...
1) The initial suspect fully cooperated with the police
2) She had zero, as in zero, previous felonies or crimes
3) Nothing in her house, exhaustively searched, supported the drug possession
4) The drug find was in itself very unusual
5) There were obvious red flags with the 911 call
6) Everyone in the school, who had been working with her for years, testified on her behalf
I am sure that, in the same circumstances 1 to 6, anyone black and poor would have been treated the same way.
Please, Stop the Racist BS.

You know what? Now that I've thought about it, I know 8 Jills. 1 is normal.
Hmm . . . what is it with that name? I know 1 and she comes across nice at first and then you realize she's a judgmental, mean girl.

I also agree that she may have benefited from white privilege. At the time, nobody had any idea who planted the drugs. They originally thought it was the crazy guy across the street, who was Asian.
Juries do not take hiding assets lightly. I'm sure the have years of attorney's fees, therapy, and other expenses associated with this five year ordeal. I hope their children have a sane person in their lives.
Having just gone through a lawsuit, I will say yes her suffering was worth that much. I cannot tell you how horrible it is to have crazy people come after you. It is a strain on your psyche, your marriage, your family, and your finances as you fight the lawsuit. It is horrifying. This couple planted drugs in her car! Absurd.

I still don't understand what put them over the edge? Did they feel that Kelli had somehow "wronged" them? Is that how crazy people think? I guess I don't know how to think that way, so it is hard for me to comprehend. If they are narcissistic does that mean that everything (every single thing) is about them - even if it is not remotely about them? The idea that they were so obsessed with Kelli and the harassment, etc. is unbelievable. They can say goodbye to any kind of normal life from now on (not that they had one to begin with). I know it exists, I just don't understand what drives people like Jill and Kent.
