Brass knuckles in nursing homes?
Links August 12th, 2003 |How in the world does anyone, anywhere, at any time, come to the conclusion that this is acceptable behavior?
An aide in an Arkansas nursing home allegedly beat an 81-year-old woman with brass knuckles because she had been “disrespectful,” police said Friday.
[…] An affidavit filed by sheriff’s detectives charged that Ryan was beaten on July 30 in her room at the Dallas County Nursing Home by Gayla Wilson, 44, who used brass knuckles. The affidavit said Wilson complained that Ryan was repeatedly “disrespectful” of her. Wilson allegedly recruited a second nursing aide, Shermika Rainey, 17, to hold Ryan during the attack.

You are absolutely correct, Mike, this is not right. At their age, they deserve at least silver knuckles, if not gold. Brass should only be used much earlier in their lives. How tacky.

Ok lets not rush to judgemnt. Lets give them a fair and balanced trial.
Then give them a fair and balanced prison term. 20 years sounds fair to me and if they both get 20 years it will all be balanced.
