    Heather Ellis Walmart Line Jumper My Thoughts

     

    Walmart line jumper Heather Ellis was given a plea bargin as the jury was deliberating her case.  She was given four days in jail, one year of unsupervised probation and told to take an anger management class.

     

    This case was not really about jumping in front of the line, it was about resisting arrest and assaulting two police officers.  Although most people who assault a police officer would get a much stiffer sentence, I tend to agree with her sentence.  The ridiculus thought of giving her 15 years in jail was just insane.  She is an upstanding individual, a teacher now, she was a college student at the time this event happened.  Yes she was wrong by jumping in line, yes she was wrong in her attitude towards the police but I believe it was just a random outburst.  Anger management should help her and four days in jail will send a message to everyone.  I think it was handled properly and so must have the district attorney that offered her the plea bargin.
