LMAO!! I keep suggesting that I package all the dirty diapers up and send them overseas as WMD’s!
Haha! My baby eats stuff off the floor all the time. Usually food she dropped earlier that we didn’t manage to get with the vacuum. My husband calls these morsels ‘carpet treats’.
Every baby needs their daily dose of carpet treats!
At work, breastmilk is classified as a biohazard because theoretically it can transmit HIV and other things. (I work in Occupational Health – it’s on the list of bodily fluids that if it comes into contact with the eyes or other membranes, then staff have to report it to us and undergo health surveillance if there are risk factors.)
I read about this too. I was thinking “oh come on, at worst the inmate cured a little pink eye”.
I think the issue with what she did is that it is no different than throwing a cup of milk or water at an officer, which is assault…
it indeed can be used to transmit HIV, though one would hope that she doesn’t have those things, you can’t assume.
It was obviously disrespectful and I’d be equally offended at someone doing that to me whether it was breastmilk, cowmilk, soda, or water.
I’ve read the headline AND read the articles themselves! This is a case of one DEFINITELY not being like the other! The rule is “Bodily fluids when used as a weapon” which could even include TEARS if a prisoner could ever figure out how to throw them at a guard, lol! OF COURSE it’s meant to include things like Spit, Urine, blood & other unmentionables but I’m ALSO sure there is a rule about throwing FOOD at a guard as well! (Which breastmilk also could be considered, lol!) One just carries a heavier “punishment” then the other, so it’s being used. There are ALSO cases of prisoners using contaminated bodily fluids to attempt to infect their captors with things like HIV so again, the rules is there. (Although a Mom allowed nurse in the U.S. probably would not have an active HIV infection, but you never know)
Also not mentioned was what TYPE of prisoner it was. (or I didn’t) see it. Was she in a Mom’s prison, pumping for a baby (not likely but possible) or just in for the night (most likely imho) which would ALSO effect things. As well as WHY they were arguing (A mom locked up for a night or 2 would hurt like HECK & I could easily see a guard as not believing or caring about such things. She STILL shouldn’t have done it but………at any rate I’d like to know the rest of the story, lol!
Good points, Anastasia. I’ve not read about this.. but I remember back when I COULD have done this. And I can imagine reasons for wanting to do this. But it would be totally inappropriate. Yes it’s a biohazzard. Lots of stuff is though. The word sounds awful but it doesn’t mean anything but that it’s a substance from the body that could carry disease. Usually these kinds of things also carry the stuff that keeps us alive or at least healthy.
I remember my first winter as a mother when I figured out that I could write my name in the snow. Is that just a Michigan thing?
My BIL is a police officer, this happened to him years ago while booking a woman on a drunk and disorderly charge. He said he didn’t know if he should laugh or get angry. Probably the most confusing incident he’s ever had on the job.
