Oh, and fuck these people, seriously...
On Monday, Wynne police arrested 46-year-old Jerri Kelly on four counts of aggravated assault, false imprisonment and endangering the welfare of a minor.
However, Kelly doesnt have mugshot because Cross county Sheriff David West told WMC Action News 5 that she had a medical issue at the time of booking. Ironically Kelly is the wife of Cross county Jail Administrator Joe Kelly, one of Wests employees.
Despite the connection and no mugshotwhich is standard procedure for anyone booked into jailWest maintains that Jerri Kelly did not get special treatment. Her husband, Joe, also remains on the job.

Why is the Sanders campaign (and its fans) doxxing liberal critics on Twitter??
This isn't the first time, either...

Serious question -- Do they even give a shit about these kinds of stories anymore?? Aside from trying to kneecap and discredit the anti-corruption investigations in Brasil, I don't remember the last time the Intercept had a buzzworthy original story on their site...
