This is insane, but we live in insane times. They could have simply stopped picking up her trash, sent her to collections, started billing her interest and so on. I don't understand why the city won't allow someone else to pay her debt, unless this is just plain tyranny. Of course, the officials knew this would end up on social media.

Crazy shit.

I bet it cost the city way more than $77 to arrest her. There was another reason for this.

There often isn't. People get locked up for relatively petty offenses, at a cost of 25-50k per year to house them, easily 5-10 times the value of the financial loss to the person or business they stole from.
