If this isn't abuse of power and misuse of taxpayer resources, I don't knwo what is...

UNION CITY, Ga. (AP) — A McDonald's employee spent a night in jail and is facing criminal charges because a police officer's burger was too salty, so salty that he says it made him sick.

Kendra Bull was arrested Friday, charged with misdemeanor reckless conduct and freed on $1,000 bail.

Bull, 20, said she accidentally spilled salt on hamburger meat and told her supervisor and a co-worker, who "tried to thump the salt off."

On her break, she ate a burger made with the salty meat. "It didn't make me sick," Bull told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

But then Police Officer Wendell Adams got a burger made with the oversalted meat, and he returned a short time later and told the manager it made him sick.

Bull admitted spilling salt on the meat, and Adams took her outside and questioned her, she said.

"If it was too salty, why did (Adams) not take one bite and throw it away?" said Bull, who has worked at the restaurant for five months. She said she didn't know a police officer got one of the salty burgers because she couldn't see the drive-through window from her work area.

Police said samples of the burger were sent to the state crime lab for tests.

City public information officer George Louth said Bull was charged because she served the burger "without regards to the well-being of anyone who might consume it."

State crime lab for a salty burger? cmon!!

If McDonalds served food, with regards to the well being of it's consumers, there would be nothing on the menu at all. I am betting that the salt is the least of whats unhealthy about a Big Mac.

It’s Georgia. Rub a cop the wrong way and “you’re in a heap of trouble boy!”

What I don’t get is why wasn’t the cop eating at the Waffle House.

Ever since my son's best friend went to work in a DC fast food joint, I have been very respectful at the drive up window. Seems he learned fast how they take care of rowdy customers at the drive up window. To this day, I prefer to go inside to order even when it is a carry out.

It's much more difficult to mess up an order when the person is standing there staring you in the face.

I think it's a Bull-s__t deal...

I'll bet he'd be happier if the salt was on his fries.
