The recently passed "Religious Freedom Restoration Act – 2014" was tested this week when Mildred Weeks died at the scene of a multiple vehicle collision on US 127 just south of Mt. Pleasant. During the initial triage conducted by EMT Paramedic, Jedidiah James, he determined that Ms. Weeks was not of the same denomination as himself as evidenced by the shape of the gold cross she wore on a necklace around her neck.

Said Jedidiah, "I could see that she was of a heretical Christian sect that did not believe as my people do about the relationship among the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We are deeply religious and do not accept such teachings as legitimate."

When asked if he was sorry that Weeks had died, he responded, "that is not up to me. It was God's will.

The county coroner determined that Weeks died of acute blood loss due to her otherwise moderate injuries. "Prompt attention by EMS personnel would surely have saved her body, if not her soul, and she would be here today propagating the listening to music and the wearing of bright colors."

Vehicular homicide charges are being considered by the State Prosecutor against the driver whose SUV struck the Week's Prius. Quoting from biblical verse, Seth Adams said, "it's an 'eye for an eye' in this situation. Someone must pay and James is protected by the Law and his religious freedoms.
