Is this the story?


The judge told Shelley Luther she didn’t have to go to jail.
The owner of Salon À la Mode in Dallas had been operating her business despite a temporary restraining order last week from Dallas County State District Judge Eric Moyé. She kept operating despite a county official’s cease-and-desist letter ordering her to close — a letter she ripped up before a crowd of protesters in a theatrical display of defiance during an Open Texas rally in Frisco, Tex., on April 25.


“Come and get it, Judge Clay Jenkins,” she said, referencing the top county official as she threw shreds of his letter to the crowd, the Dallas Morning News reported.
As Luther faced criminal and civil contempt-of-court charges, Moyé offered her a chance to make things right: She had to admit her actions were selfish and wrong and that she would follow the law.

On every condition, Luther refused.


“I have to disagree with you, sir, when you say that I’m selfish, because feeding my kids is not selfish,” she said in court Tuesday, CBS DFW reported. “I have hair stylists that are going hungry because they’d rather feed their kids. So, sir, if you think the law is more important than kids getting fed, then please go ahead with your decision, but I am not going to shut down the salon.”

He went ahead — and sentenced Luther to seven days in jail.
