WFAA-TV in Dallas reported that Theresa Dobbs was held for three days in the Lew Sterrett Jail for showing up late for a hearing on a $50 seatbelt violation.

They insist the problem is with Dallas County. A mortified Dobbs, who has no criminal record, was taken to jail by sheriff's deputies in handcuffs from her school. She was one of 28 women in a cell designed for eight. "You had to find a patch of concrete on the floor to sleep," said Dobbs, whose only crime was not buckling her seatbelt.
