With enough force, any sandwich can be a jam sandwich

Is it fucked up that my first thought when I read that this incident was caught on CCTV that I'd pay good money to watch it?

Its fuck up only if the jail mate wasn't consenting

[–] Aggravationstation@feddit.uk 9 points 4 months ago (1 children)

~~Scumbag news outlet posts a photo of the victim side by side with the accused perpetrator.~~

~~But fuck her, right? Local media has to make sure it's shaming and dehumanizing all inmates, all the time.~~

The website on mobile didn't show any captions by defaut, until you click on something. Still, fuck me for making assumptions, but God damn do those pictures look significantly different than one another.

Both pictures are the accused. One from an earlier arrest and the other from the recent arrest. They don't even name the victim, let alone show a picture of her.
