    Sam Kerr is one of the highest paid female athletes in all of Europe. The idea that she refused to pay for her taxi is ridiculous.

    She was also very drunk - drunk people say stupid shit all the time. Police know that, they experience it every day. It’s part of the job and what she said does not even remotely justify a month in jail and losing her job/being deported (she’s facing all of those if found guilty).
