I haven't heard much about the case...but am wondering if this feeding thing had been going on a while and she had ignored previous warnings/fines.

If so, then jail was what she finally deserved.

If not, then I agree that jailtime on what might've been her FIRST offense would've been a little harsh.

Either way, she WAS made an example of and she should have been.

A wise and frugal government, which shall leave men free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned - this is the sum of good government.
