Shot In The Arm and You're Too Late....

CARRIE GLEAVES

Yes, regurgitating news YET again, but it's an important story (from The Tennessean):

Intern with Nashville public defender's office is shot

By Kate Howard
THE TENNESSEAN
An intern working in the Metro Public Defender's Office was shot Monday while working on a case in the University Court public housing development.
Carrie Gleaves, 35, was shot in the arm while helping Assistant Public Defender Laura Dykes interview a client. Metro Public Defender Dawn Deaner said Gleaves, a student at the Nashville School of Law, had just begun volunteering in the office. Gleaves' injuries were not life-threatening, police say.

Hopefully Gleaves is recovering nicely and avoiding reading all the douchebag comments in the online story from The Tennessean.
