A boring dystopia.
they will try to make an example of her hoping they will subdue people into obedience by fear
I'd love to know what she was denied. While I'm guessing it's regular bullshit if it was something serious then it's the health insurance company that is threatening her and doing her harm.
But this is fucking stupid. That judge should have to spend the same amount of time in jail as she ends up doing and she should sue. She should be charged with uttering threats or whatever, but there is ZERO reason she should be stuck with $100,000 bail. She is not a threat, even IF (big if) she did make one.
I wonder what would happen if everyone with a united healthcare policy started calling to ask questions about their policies. Questions about coverage, deductible, and costs. No threats, or anything that could be seen as one. Just occasional calls to check on coverage, maybe get pre-approval.
Of course if you ever get a denial, you should absolutely dispute it.
Wouldn't want to work for blue cross...
