Petty Crimes
A smoking-ban opponent has been charged with a misdemeanor.
The Washington County Prosecutor's Office filed Tuesday a misdemeanor charge against an alderman's wife who supported the Free Choice Fayetteville campaign to repeal the city's smoking ban in the workplace.
The charge alleges that Sandra Reynolds, 42, falsely signed a petition as a canvasser.
It's a Class A misdemeanor....up to 1 yr. jail time & up to $1,000 fine. And on what was the charge based you might ask?
Employees of the prosecutor's office said they have verified their research for the filed charge, and Curt Wolfe, a member of Smoke Free Fayetteville, also signed an affidavit in helping the prosecutor bring the charge against Reynolds.
It's good to know there's concerned citizens like ol' Curt to keep dangerous women like Ms. Reynolds under control. I mean, it's not like the city prosecutor has better things to do than political retaliation.....like deal with all the crack whores & dealers that live down under the hill off of 6th Street.
Right?

Very little public good I see out of the things the anti-smokers have been doing around here lately. Our city has much worse problems than some people that don't like to smell cigarette smoke.
