Michigan Woman Frisked, Jailed, For Not Renewing Dog License
CBS Detroit ^ | July 6, 2015

Michigan woman heads to court Tuesday after being arrested for failing to renew her dog’s license.

Becky Rehr says she drove to the Kalamazoo County sheriff’s office June 23 to prove that she’s recently renewed the license for the family’s 11-year-old dog, Dexter. Rehr’s 14-year-old daughter waited in the car as her mother was arrested, fingerprinted and held for three hours, The Kalamazoo Gazette said.

“We prefer not for this stuff to go to court,” Lawrence told The Associated Press. “It’s just a $10 license. For some reason, some people like to make it hard for themselves.”


If this had been my wife I would have come down there and beat you senseless your worthless low level civil service pant load.

Lucky they didn’t shoot the dog for not having a license.

LOL! These folks are clowns. You can just about kill someone in Michigan and get much less of a penalty than that.

I really hope she did in fact renew her dog license and it was a bureaucratic foul up so she can sue the every living crap out of them...

Lawrence needs a good old fashioned ass kicking. Seriously.

If you are a delinquent dog license payee it’s jail time for you. If you are an illegal alien murderer you get sanctuary and freedom.

I don’t see why anyone would license their pet, there are heavy drawbacks for doing so.

I’ve never licensed my dogs.

Plus I keep the keys out of reach.

Michigan? the state that’s home to millions of the beard and burka crowd? where Detroit is? the hellhole?
They can’t stop the street savages from killing each other and they arrest for dog licenses?
This is an out of control government.

“Failure to license a dog is punishable by up to 90 days in jail and $100 fine.”

Wow. Think this ‘legislation’ came about after little kids were killed by Pit Bulls or German Shepherds or roving bands of Poodles?

Talk about your unintended consequences! I mean this is SCARY! Any of us law-abiding, gun-toting, dog-loving Bible thumpers could be caught up in this wide net!

How I loathe Mother Government in all of her permutations.

*SPIT*

They've taken lessons from California. Concentrate on the law-abiding citizens - it's a lot safer.
