More Mexiculturalism. Bill her for the police time and check her for INS holds.

It breaks my heart that they always finger a black man.

Lisa, look at the bright side: They don't get put on INS hold.

A black guy with long dreadlocks and a 3 inch goatee? In Tiburon? LOL Yeah, I think folks would've noticed a guy like that. If you are going to lie, you need to come up with something a bit harder to disprove. She should've described the purse snatcher as a middle aged, white male wearing spandex bike gear.

and people wonder why they want cameras at the Tiburon city limits....
