This is being laughed about in various other retirement communities. I know because I am getting emails from friends who reside in them linking me to news articles and jokes. Like the STD thing, this may take awhile before it dies down and out due to the natural ever diminishing loss of interest experienced by most such news.

I don't have a problem at all with it. it beats living in a community of old people sitting around in a rocking chair and gossiping about each other. growing old bored and in perceived life without sin and pleasure. you can have that,I prefer lively people around me having a good time. life is waaay too short to worry about what your neighbors are doing.

Upthread someone posted a link that this all started because some busybody(IMO) witnessed it and called law enforcement. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? What a tattle tale. If I were out and saw it the most I'd do is say "Whoa, check it out." to my friend. Where are these people from, Mayberry?

If I were Ms Klemm I would have insisted in a trial, just to see who these people were. I also would have had an attorney who didn't look like a fakatke

Oh, and another thing, I'm so tired of people pulling out the kid card. If the child sees something like this it seems like a good time to have a chat. Explain what they saw. I have explained much worse than this... why people have powder on their nose and boogers on their shirt, why people are out and about with someone not their wife. In this case I would have said that this woman took her good china to a picnic and we just don't do that.

She was on probation for another crime, the sentence was appropriate to me. Probation means, you walk the straight and narrow until it is over. Maybe she will get help now.

Totally appropriate. Sentences serve as punishment and a deterrent for others. Concept is apparently really hard to grasp. Driving drunk alone should be worth 180 days and you would not have 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th + repeat offenders.

I so agree with you. But what is a fakatke? I know it's a word. I've googled it but can't find a definition.

Exactly what I believe! Too much time for too little crime. Go get the ones who get away and save us some money with these two by having them do community service!

A post that holds your interest. Well done and thanks.

I agree that now that this has been settled--just let it drop. It doesn't matter anymore whether you agree or disagree with anything. It is done, let it die.
You will not accomplish anything by continuing to talk about it.

She didn't have a trial because she had been advised by her lawyer that she would lose and the sentence would have been a lot worse. Lawyers usually have a good grasp on these things.

Also, because they were still at it when LE arrived it was witnessed by the police so whoever called would not be required to testify. In fact the police may not even know who called.

My bad, it might be spelled facacta. My definition.. (here come the ###s LOL), ****ty, ineffective, a sloppy mess, tacky and ridiculous.

Thanks. I think you had one of the correct spellings of it. A great new word for me.

[DougB]

It's yiddish and is spelled a multiple of ways. Don't think there is one "correct" spelling.
