YouTube Description
as posted by the channelA women was exiled from he town for calling 911 too many times reporting her exboyfriend was beating her. Ana Kasparian, Brett Erlich, and Kim Horcher, the hosts of The Young Turks, tell you the town’s excuse. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
“When Rosetta Watson, a black woman with disabilities living in Maplewood, Missouri, needed protection from an abusive ex-boyfriend, she did what she was supposed to do: She called the police. On four occasions between 2011 and 2012, she contacted local law enforcement, telling authorities that Robert Hennings hit, shoved and choked her.
Watson wanted relief from the violence. But instead, according to a federal lawsuit the American Civil Liberties Union filed last week against Maplewood, she was evicted and forced to leave town for six months.
Under a local ordinance in the St. Louis suburb, more than two calls to the cops regarding domestic violence within 180 days qualifies as a “nuisance.” Individuals who violate the rule can be evicted and lose their occupancy permit ― which is required to live in the city ― for six months.
Maplewood’s city manager, Martin Corcoran, did not immediately return a request for comment.”
