Today, I am grieving…
A true story of Injustice in 21st Century San Francisco …
my loss of innocence, civil liberties, and life savings …
from two False Citizen’s Arrests in my old age 4.12.18 and 2.8.20 …
I was to go to the Symphony the afternoon of 4.12.18 …
Instead I lay on a hard wooden ledge in a filthy prison cell waiting for my husband to ride his bicycle with $20K cash in 200 $100 bills stuffed into his backpack …
riding against rush hour traffic from our bank where we had a modest savings account to the Hall of Justice …
where he posted bail allowing me to return to our home of 39 years …
in San Francisco, Amerika.
