NO! The Sanitation cop did the right thing and should be rewarded. She finally ticketed the correct party instead of landlords who have to pay fines for what their tenants do.

All this lady did was throw away a newspaper. She wasn't throwing out her household trash.

Actually, she threw out the newspaper that was inside a plastic bag. Apparently there is a problem with residents carrying their garbage out to the city litter containers. It would look like that if someone saw here carrying a bag out to the litter container.

Maybe you should read the whole article next time.
