This is disturbing on many levels - Woman issued citation by authorities for Facebook comment - chicagotribune.com

At first., this 'citation and fine' may be amusing, because the 'evidence' was gleaned from a social media page.
But in a real sense this is the mean small minds showing the mean, insignificant and underhand thought process 'government workings' at all levels. Government bureaucrats nearly have to be threatened with legal action to get them to actual serve the public, but when it comes to devious, underhanded, small minded ways to harass, charge,site and fine the populous, the mean cretins of government, in all levels, go out of their way to screw the public! m/r

Woman issued citation by authorities for Facebook comment - chicagotribune.com

Christine Adamski said she was surprised last week when she received a citation in the mail for a comment she made on Facebook, but she also knew immediately she wasn’t going to pay it.
Adamski, 25, opened the $50 ticket from the Will County Forest Preserve District last week and read the letter alleging she had used a dog park without a proper permit.
The citation arrived at her Bolingbrook home with a letter explaining the ticket, an application for a dog park permit as well as a copy of her social media post “admitting her guilt.”
“I laughed,” Adamski said Thursday. “I was like, this is totally untrue. Obviously I’m not going to pay this.”
Adamski said she received a call from Lt. Tracey Phillips of the Will County Forest Preserve District Police Thursday informing her that the ticket has been rescinded.
She said she’s happy about the end result but wishes the forest preserve protection officer who issued the ticket would have re-read her statement and had more than a Facebook post to go on.
