What did she do to deserve this, kill someone? Certainly falls under cruel and definitely unusual punishment
Quote:
Boyd was "forced to listen to Rush Limbaugh make derogatory racial remarks about black people through Deputy Goad's radio on her way to jail," according to the court filing.
How are they going to prove, for sure, that the police officer forced her to listen to Limbaugh? Perhaps the officer was a fan and she had the misfortune of being in the car.

They dont need to, its not a crime to force people to listen to your radio station unless the radio is over a certain volume, and even that law was ruled unconstitutional unless its after a certain hour in the day.
Disclosure: I dont recall what level that ruling was made, might only have been in a state court, but regardless, its not a crime to put on a certain radio station.
I would rather get the Rodney King/Occupy Wall Street Protest treatment.
