RUGARDless Of The Legal Reasoning Behind Her Detention, Her Reported Treatment Comes Off As Unnecessarily Harsh and Intense. Andy Oliver of Broken Frontier, Former Colleague of Burke Writes:

Denny Will eventually prevail and we look forward to the time when kind and thoughful human being is back with her family, Friends and Community.
