OK, fine! But what about a fine instead?


A Tennessee  homeowner was jailed for failing to mow her lawn. Karen Holloway spent five hours behind bars for violating local lawn-maintenance laws. “The bushes and trees were overgrown but that’s not a criminal offense,” she said, adding that she and her husband were busy at their jobs. “Why would you put me in jail with child molesters and people who have committed serious crimes?”
Why indeed?
