I just had to post this one...worth the read. Rich girl flips out and her first target is some poor guy on his bike.
Be careful out there!

On the couple's 39X.com website, they say, "As Christians, we feel the message of Jesus is the top priority in our lives. Our clothing line is our way of spreading that message. By wearing 39X clothing you are saying that you understand that sacrifice He made for you."
The 39X site was taken down Friday after her arrest.
She explained the company's name: "Jesus in his last day was whipped 39 times. The lashings were brutal and painful. 39X is a reminder of that pain. He endured those lashings so that we may be saved."

And here we have another (worthless) article from the same paper which essentially pitches a sob story for her

They could not even be bothered to follow up on the two seriously injured people that she assaulted?!? They are probably good people as well, that didn't deserve to be brutally run-down by this psychotic woman.

Yeah, it sucks how they'll do a write-up on her in a positive note and hardly acknowledge the two people she critically injured.

On the other hand, the comment section is universally horrified by this woman. Don't think I've ever seen that in a case where a bike is involved. Not one person has tried to somehow blame the cyclist or defend the driver-- except the reporter at the paper. Weird.

Wow.
We can go so many places with this. The "Female Blame Discount" the "Religious Blame Discount", etc. If it were just the headline I'd be inclined to blame it on a lazy copy editor. But the piece itself doesn't even qualify as objective journalism. I just have to ask if the paper thought the two people she ran over were athiests and said, "ah, screw em it was the Divine Will of the Allmighty".

I like the comments, sad that idiots like this 'reporter' are allowed to write.

Good God. That is the most completely insane article I've ever read. I wouldn't call it worthless; it's a case study for the dysfunction of the press.
On the other hand, the comment section is universally horrified by this woman. Don't think I've ever seen that in a case where a bike is involved. Not one person has tried to somehow blame the cyclist or defend the driver-- except the reporter at the paper. Weird.

Anybody who doubted that quality journalism was alive and well...
I like that the "newspaper" wouldn't have been surprised to see this crime spree from a Jew. Or an ugly person. All the hand-wringing over "a beautiful Christian woman" is a bit odd, to say the least.
The follow-up piece was decent as a celebrity/personality thing; it managed to fill some inches to separate the ads from one another. But how are the people she hit?

It's just background.
The press (and readers) like stories of successful people brought low by their own actions.
The other injured people deserve their privacy.
It might be hard to find out without violating their privacy.
Not really.

"The cyclist, whose name is not being released to the public, is in the hospital in serious but not critical condition, while the driver of the truck who was flown to ... was released from the hospital on his own power ..."
How would that violate, or even affect, their privacy?
It's a little bit more newsworthy than how beautiful the assailant is.

Howard said Zampatti struck the bicyclist, a man, who was struck in the 1200 block of State Road A1A Boulevard. He was later airlifted to Shands in Jacksonville. The names and conditions of the victims were not released Friday.

It doesn't make it right and it doesn't make it journalism, but I can understand a little.
As far as the Christian, hate to go racist, but check out where that incident happened. It's not exactly a majority region for skeptics and athiests.

I didn't mind the second article. We already know she went on a homicidal spree with her car. They weren't pumping her up in any way as far as I could tell. I'll bet there is a follow-up that fills us in on more reasons for why she flipped out.
Can we keep the P&R stuff out of this thread? I know the newspaper started it.

Have they gotten the tox report back yet? What all did she have in her system? You know the "sad" thing is that if in the line of duty one or more LEO's opened fire on her and killed her. That some family member would be interviewed on TV and say "They didn't have to kill her." And does anyone know what all of the charges are or how she pleaded when she had her initial day in court?
Down here in Tampa we had a guy "barrow" his wife's or ex-wife's pickup and led Tampa's Finest on a marry chase south on Dale Maybry HGY, he ended up invading MacDill AFB with Tampa's Finest hot on his tail. They trapped him by the MacDill Ave. gate where he attempted to run over an officer with "his" pickup at which point all of the cops on the scene opened fire killing him.
His wife/ex-wife was interviewed on TV and that's what she said. I hate to break it to her but when he invaded MacDill AFB the SP's would have been justified in killing him. As from the time that he entered the main gate to he was fatally shot trying to run over a cop he was on borrowed time.

Whether they intended to write a sympathy piece or not, and even if this was responsible journalism ... it would be a travesty of justice if anybody on the jury read this.

While I am also a Christian, being a Christian doesn't mean one should go about attempting to commit vehicular homicide!!!! I hope she gets a long time behind bars!!!!!

The suspect, Andrea Lee Zampatti, 37, Canton, Georgia, is being held without bond on four felony charges: aggravated battery on a law enforcement officer; aggravated assault on a law enforcement officer; resisting arrest with violence; and aggravating fleeing and eluding police causing serious injury.
The Sheriff’s Office is still seeking at least three additional victims who have not come forward. A deputy who was pursuing Zampatti witnessed a woman driving a scooter as well as two bicyclists that were struck; however they left the scene before being identified.
