Zsa Zsa Gabor Found Guilty
The many judgments of Gabor seem to be made on her fame and wealth, and not on the evidence that she was beat and bruised by a so-called officer of the law. Witnesses corroborated her story and other citizens testified to similar experiences.
Consequently, I think a critical issue was overlooked: that police abuse is a common occurrence and is conveniently passed off under the guise of the law.
The message has been made clear that most people disapprove of Gabor for many reasons. When will the message be made clear that police abuse of generally law-abiding citizens is intolerable? In spite of her high profile, Zsa Zsa, I fear, is only the tip of the iceberg.
