Honors student jailed for missing class...
...because she's working 2 jobs to support her younger sister after their parents abandoned them and still manages to get excellent grades.

I had no idea working 2 jobs to support your family counted as "running loose."“If you let one (truant student) run loose, what are you gonna’ do with the rest of ‘em? Let them go too?” Judge Moriarty asked.
There's probably more to the story. I'd really like to know if the parents will be held accountable here. But as it is now, it looks like a young woman is being punished for being responsible and self reliant...and making other people look lazy.

Good job by the judge. This little stay in prison is going to bring her back on track!
That judge is a idiot.
That should teach her! In all honesty, as long as she is passing her grades I don't see why the judge should be an obnoxious Judge Judy type. Perhaps they could help her to study at home instead?
Where can I send my pitchfork and torch?
What is this world coming to? It's news to me that someone could work so hard to be rewarded in such a manner...
jail for missing classes ?
i'd like to knw the penal code for that.
Going to class is not equivalent, nor any significant correlation to getting good grades. Judge should throw himself in jail for wasting everybody's time.
What the... is this even real life? You reward hard-working, sacrifice and other great human values with that crap?

I alrady feel safer now that this hardened repeat offender has been thrown in jail.
It was only a 24 hour sentence. She's back on the streets, runnin' loose again!
So.. you can go to jail for skipping school?
Hell the American education system is down the drain.
Why not speed up the process by punishing the smart students?
