Wow. Zee-Row Tolerance sucks rocks...
There are security tapes at the Great Wall of Mart........should be a easy job for the judge if what she says is true.
Zero tolerance equals zero judgment. IMHO, the police and the Kids and Cars group are showing no judgment. At least for the police and prosecutors, they are paid to exercise their professional judgment. Instead, they’re Nifonging this case.

I am convinced that a large percentage of cops need to be handcuffed, tazed and jailed.
Yes, like the mom might get kidnapped by an out-of-control cop with an attitude problem.
I had a friend of mine who was suspended for getting in a fight on a bus on the way to school. Thing is, the guy pushed him over and my friend never laid a finger on him. The principle even acknowledged that but say zero-tolerance tied his hands.
Great job officer. I wonder if a promotion is in order as his/her investigative skills are obviously finely honed.
poor woman...
Once again the gooberment thinks it’s more responsible for raising your kids than you are. As described, I see no problem with what the mother did.
PS - If I read correctly, it was a community resource officer (no gun, yellow lights on car) that summoned a real cop.
It seems a zero tolerance policy lobotomizes these public safety people and removes the part of the brain where common sense resides.
Every parent knows she speaks the truth. The officer who arrested her should be exposed and tormented for being such a jerkoff.
I’m a strong advocate for child safety, and have a dim view of parents who leave unattended children in a car even for a short period of time. Having said that, if the womans claim of being only a short distance away with the car always in her view is true, then she did not leave her child unattended IMHO. If this case goes to trial, she should demand a jury trial.
“community service officer” - WTF is that?
Especially these fat stupid women who have no business being cops in the first place. NYC is crawling with these bitches.
The cop aside, the DA who took this case to trial should be recalled or fired, whichever is faster.
Ridiculous!
Not even a cop. A “community service officer”. Did she even have the authority to arrest or detain?
Crestwood Police Chief Timothy Sulikowski declined to comment about the case. But he did not dispute the contention that Coyne parked nearby or was away from her car for just a few minutes.
He did, however, suggest Coyne put her child at risk.
"A minute or two, that's when things can happen," he said.
I want to know how the Police Chief managed to make these comments while simultaneously declining to comment.
When I rule the world, this non-commenting jackass with all the comments is fired.
