Y'all is bitchez | I feel sorry for you then as you must have a pretty shitty quality of life....1 million dollars? Seriously? That's fucking NOTHING....Doctor can make that much in 1 year, and you think it's worth risking your life? Maybe you're right though; you probably have such a shitty quality of life that maybe it is worth risking YOUR life for it.... |

Specialists especially ones in the States can easily pull in that kind of money. If not in one, then in 2 years and it wouldn't take them that long either to save up 1 million.
Hypothetical situation or not, I don't think its a good idea to risk ones life over money. Five days may sound like an easy feat, but without water that long it could potentially be dangerous for anyone in that kind of situation. I don't know about you but I wouldn't want to take the chance of damaging my organs even if I survived.

Maybe he really did all he could to get noticed in those five days.
Even if all of that were true, he still could have feigned some aspects like trying to kill himself with his eyeglass lens to make it look even worse.
I guess the only one that knows the truth is himself. | Quote:

I wasn't arguing that you were arguing that he sensationalized it. I was agreeing that it was a big mistake for the DEA to leave him there, no matter what the circumstances.

Have any of you ever done the 30 hour famine?
That alone kills me.
5 days without food or water?
Good luck.
Though, if I knew after five days I would be getting $20million, that would make it a lot easier. For this guy, it was worse because he probably felt like he was going to die before anyone would get to him.
Though, this kid was a gangster right, was he the one with the guns and drugs? Or was he innocent?

I found this article... Daniel Chong sues for $20m after being forgotten in police cell for 5 days | Mail Online
The thing that was pretty crazy was the fact that he may have been hand cuffed the whole time, he ate glass, he ingested MDMA, and the lights turned off so it was complete darkness in the cell.. That is pretty messed

Is it just me or is BBallguy one of the most judgemental people on this site? Always so quick to condemn people and their opinions.
I'm sure you get sick, make smelly farts, and take dumps like the rest of us peons, so why don't you relax a bit?

So some of you support a man suing for 20 mil who was busted in a drug sting?
Its reasonable for us to feel empathy for people who aren't suspected drug dealers being put into this system, and I'm not saying this man is guilty, but he was arrested in suspicion of a crime... and from what I can tell, he hasn't had the charges dropped.
I don't support a suspected drug dealer getting $20mil from a government agency that ultimately does more good than harm.
Also, common sense dictates you don't eat shit you find on the floor of a jail cell. Are the entrance requirements for UCSD so low that they accept people who think its reasonable to eat white powder you find on the ground?
