Yes Ms.Dye can question the system but its that same system thats allowing her and one of her sons walk around free at the present moment. Yes they both have warrants on them and there is not a big criminal or little criminal. Breaking the law is what is. So before talking down Mr. Fleming check yourself and your family have all your t crossed and all your i dotted Ms.

Yes the system is atrocious! But what the attorney stated is undoubtedly true in that, "sometimes it works for us, sometimes it works against us." So is it any better that Mr. Fleming is on the loose with warrants or that Ms. Dye is on the loose with warrants? Karma at its best!
