Locking them up didn't solve the problem, providing work or Financial assistance helped!

I thought sending them to Australia helped.

For all the bleeding hearts out there who feel sorry for a serial thief, to get caught once or twice that can be glossed over but for the that woman to make a carrier out of it? Thailand has agencies to help with the needy and the destitute, ok, their are the answer to poverty but this is NOT the way to go...

The world is a worse place because of smug, heartless, judgemental, wealthy white men aiming their hate at poor women. The same can not be said of of poor wood thieves.

In the UK they don't even bother to arrest shoplifters with less than 100GBP worth of goods.

Only the lucky ones,  ???? ???? my uncle got knocked back because of a short spell inside for committing a minor offence!

 

Maybe the jails are overflowing with covid desperate people and there's nowhere to house those that commit minor larceny offences, such as shop lifting.

When I say lock her up, I mean lock her up for a couple of nights at the station, teach her that thieving is wrong. stealing from shops is not the answer,   she should seek help if she needs food or money.  

If she gets away with stealing every time,  what next ?  a gold shop  ....  

i doubt if a bread theif will become a hardened criminal.  and i doubt she will target a bank

A lot of questions would be answered by reading the linked article.
Always recommended.

She was found stealing pork, vegetables, bread, and snacks. We called police and caught her.”

Quote

Police said they have received many reports from nearby convenience stores that the same suspect had stolen from them with CCTV footage evidence over the past several weeks and believed the suspect was a serial thief.

 

read on from there...

she is not a bread thief, she steals from where ever she can and she keeps stealing.

The bleeding hearts can say whatever, a thief is a thief,  she needs to be processed as the law intended.

or lets just let all thief's continue because she's a mum or is just a bread thief .....   Lol

Agree totally - the Rothschilds are definitely in the frame for this.

Sounds like you are into anti Semitic conspiracy theories to me.

I guess it is easy to judge without knowing the facts. She may have children and no family support or possibly a mental illness. Whatever the case there are professional thieves and desperate thieves. Whilst the former should be penalised the latter should be helped. Sometimes prevention is better served by compassion rather than retribution. In either case I would want to know the circumstances of this woman before heating up the tar and plucking the chooks.

I wonder how many sitting in judgement here have driven the company car for private purposes, gone to a conference and tacked a couple of days holiday and "forgot" to declare it, or perhaps claimed something on their tax they didn't really spend? After all thats only "minimising" tax its not theft really is it. Certainly far less heinous that a poor woman stealing food.

I seem to recall a dark skinned bloke in sandals mentioning something about removing the speck from ones' own eye first.

I am not trying to be holier than thou. I just remembered the speck in mine that's all.

The woman may also be living with  mental health issue, I remember the wife of a former Governor General in Australia, who was found shoplifting on several occasions, it was not the need for the goods, as she always had enough funds on her to pay, but as she aged, and her life had always been supporting her husband and political rise, the launched into a Vice Regal role, caused her to develop a MH issue.

Locking them up stops them for a while too, but with naught to fear bar perhaps a misdemeanor charge ......better here than Europe and USA.

Alleged  Female 

Well she certainty doesn't look like she was starving, must be the pork, snacks and bread she steals.

They don't steal in Saudi that's for sure ....

They don't LIVE in Saudi.....they endure.

One thing that hasn't been tried is giving people jobs with livable wages. It's proven that this impacts crime dramatically. Can't happen because of corporate greed, but it's worth a look.  Besides, I'm a French Revolution admirer. Guillotine sweeps clean.

She could have a mental disability.  Who knows?  

Why all the speculation about mental health issues etc ? She's a petty thief who got caught, I saw the video on TMN News earlier in the week, she was peed off at getting caught, and she put up a fight when they tried to handcuff her, plus all the other stores that have video of her in action, she deserves everything coming her way.
