A Sacramento woman wanted to quit smoking so bad that she slapped a deputy in order to get smoke free jail time. I think that Etta Lopez might have misunderstood the slogan; it is kick the habit, not slap, which I am sure the deputy is grateful.
The Sacrament Bee reports that the 31-year-old woman allegedly slapped a Sacramento County sheriff's deputy across the face this week to kick her cigarette habit by getting herself thrown into jail.
Deputy Matt Campoy was able to accommodate the woman's unorthodox method for smoking cessation, booking her into the smoke-free county jail on suspicion of battery on a peace officer. Ms. Lopez was so intent on carrying out her plan that she actually waited outside the jail for hours, and at one point left to get some food.
The uniformed deputy didn't think much of it when a woman moved into his path from his right side.
"I stepped to the left, she stepped to my left," Campoy said. "I stepped to the right, she stepped to my right. I stepped to the left again and she suddenly stepped into me and slapped my face."
Campoy told a reporter for the Sacrament Bee that he has a new Irish name: Nick O'Derm. At least he has a sense of humor.
Etta will now serve 63 days after pleading no contest to a misdemeanor charge of battery against a peace officer.
