I agree with the court that she should not be able to sue for their terrible performance of their job. I hope those involved in that obviously bad decision will have multiple nightmares every night for the rest of their lives. Actions should have consequences. But grounds for a lawsuit? No.
Of course. From the Feds all the way on down to your local police force, gubbermint wants all the power, but none of the liability.
If you’ve been raped and kidnapped, your best chance at justice is street justice.
It’s California. Most of the Government workers are Dems who will never hold another Dem accountable unless it is a matter of a YUGE scandal.......like the State Senator in the SF area who was a vocal advocate for gun confiscation while he was running them. HE couldn’t be ignored......but most everyone else will skate as long as they are in good standing in the Dem party. I loved living in California, but it is just a Leftist cesspool now....sad. And the whole Dugard story is just heartbreaking.
Sorry Jaycee- but in this country you have to be a criminal before you have any rights
From Wikipedia:
“In July 2010, the State of California approved a US$20 million settlement with Jaycee Dugard, to compensate her for “various lapses by the Corrections Department [which contributed to] Dugard’s continued captivity, ongoing sexual assault and mental and/or physical abuse.” The settlement, part of AB1714, was approved by the California State Assembly by a 70 to 2 vote, and by the California State Senate by a 30 to 1 vote. San Francisco County Superior Court Judge Daniel Weinstein, who mediated the settlement, stated that the settlement was reached to avoid a lawsuit which would be a “greater invasion of privacy and greater publicity for the state.” The bill was signed by California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger on July 9.”
Interesting headline. This seem to describe a truly outre court proceeding using a highly unorthodox method to reject a lawsuit. Where is Dugard currently being held by the court that kidnaped her?
