That's good stuff right there...'Hey, I think you're looking for my wife,' ".....lol!!!

How rude and unfeeling of the Trib to print this and humiliate the mom. THree kids in tow? of course she was distracted.

Take another look at the video.
The woman looks directly at the girls then turns her back to them as she is taking the money so that they can't see what she is doing. If it was her money, why the look at the girls with the awkward back-turning as she palms the $20? I don't buy that it was an accident. She knew that that $20 wasn't hers. She's lucky that the cops buy her story. |

Yea, I often mistake some child's $20 bill for my own after I've already paid and received my own change. Yea, sure. Want to buy a bridge.

The Great Criswell predicts: There will be a divorce attorney who will get a new case soon.
"Hey, I think you're looking for my wife" has to be an opening gambit. |

She knew exactly what she was doing. Anyone who would steal from 2 kids like that (in an ice cream shop, no less!) is twisted. She deserves to be embarrassed, at the very least.

I don't get why hubby turned her in.
Did he talk to her first? Is there more to this story? As the swirl turns.... |
||||

Wow what a head line !!!! What about some focus on parking meter fiasco; crook county taxes, federal aid for pot holes, city hall corruption, broken state finances and the list is endless. It is a good distraction though.

Good for the hubby and what a piece of trash the wife is. She should be ashamed of herself. Ignorance is not a defense, but she is. I've shopped with my children and although they can create a distraction, to take a child's money is inexcusable. And if there is a divorce, so what, would you want that thief for a spouse?

This woman is despicable. She did not pick up this money by mistake. Sounds like Baskin Robbins doesn't want to lose a regular customer so they are letting her go. The police should charge this woman. The poor kid who lost her $20 has probably lost faith in people too. Throw the book at this despicable woman. Her husband turned her in because he probably knows that she is the type of person who would do something like this.

Why would the husband need to turn her in if "the case was cracked" by a friend coming forth and outing the woman? That doesn't make any sense.

again, this story is told from the entirely WRONG vantage point.
the young girl needs to learn a lesson, but that lesson is not that she's "special," which is exactly the lesson she learns when the media blows up her mistake and ridicules the wrong party. the lesson is an important one: you MUST take care of yourself. you must be aware of yourself and your surroundings. if something is important to you, take care of it. it's sad that the woman had to steal a girl's money, but i cannot pity a girl who has $20 to lose. i can, however, feel bad for a girl who is robbed of an opportunity to learn an important lesson. |

I can't believe this is even making the news. Come on, people are getting killed over car jackings and muggings and we're making a big deal over 20 bucks.

The times-are-a-changin'. "Deerfield woman resorts to stealing from child in today's economic times".

Blame the dumbarse parents of the kid who's money was taken for not teaching the kid that there are thieves in this world. Yeah, I always put my money on the counter while I decide what ice cream I want. You hang on to it until you place it in the cashier's hand. The kid should have gotten a beatdown if that lady really wanted her ice cream money.

It is a poorly written piece, like most in the Trib these days. Lazy journalists, lazy editors. |
||||
It's the principle, not the $20 that makes this news. |

That husband is trash. The lowest form of humanity are informers, stool-pigeons, whistle-blowers and snithches Nobody likes or trusts such vermin. The girls have been deprived of a life-long learning experience. The wife cannot trust her husband, and she should be inavailable to him for 6 months,

D-I-V-O-R-C-E!

This must not have been the first time this woman has stolen something. Her husband probably turned her in to give her a wake up call, because his other efforts to correct this problem have failed.
This way, this woman's friends (if she has any more) and family don't have to perform an awkward intervention. |
