Garbage Man Sentenced To 30 DAYS IN JAIL For Picking Up Trash Too Early



Well this is garbage.

A sanitation worker in an Atlanta suburb has been sentenced to 30 days in jail for working too early.

Kevin McGill had been working for only a few months for a company contracted to do sanitation work in Sandy Springs when he was cited for picking up trash just after 5 a.m. one morning, according to WSB-TV.

That violated a city ordinance which limits trash pickup to between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. The statute is in place because residents have complained that early pick-up disrupts their sleep.

When McGill showed up to court to answer the citation, Sandy Springs prosecutor Bill Riley sought the maximum punishment against him — 30 days in jail.

And in a trashy move, a judge granted Riley the request.



More garbage here



It sure is nice to know that crime is so slow in Atlanta that they have the time and money to go after these big mean criminals. It makes me call BS over claims of jails being too full and court time too busy.
