Supreme Court considers if exonerated people can be charged the same fines and fees as the guilty

Man. That sounds many kinds of fucked up.

That's because most arrests are a money grabbing scheme.

That is how Andy of Mayberry got started. He pulled over Danny Thomas for not stopping at a stop sign. Andy got the money - and his own show. Everyone remembers Andy Griffith. How many remember "Make Room for Daddy".

Some money grabbing scheme are beloved.

It is worth noting that Danny Thomas was the producer of "The Andy Griffith Show", so...he won the money grabbing game.

That is a terribly worded article. I don't think he was thrown 100 feet. The article says (more than once) that he was lifted a few feet off the gorund, I guess meaning the floor. He was lowered ~100 feet from the bell tower by rescuers.

Terribly written/worded article.

Yeah, AFTER " beheading and cannibalizing a fellow passenger on a Greyhound bus" he got to be a Canadian citizen, anyway?

There's something the AP isn't telling us here
