You know in other countries,like Syria ,Dubai,where they actually treat women like dirt....Well she wouldn't have lived most likely resisting like that.
lol at calling stealing from stores a phase that they'll get over. No not all people steal at some point in their lives. I learned very young that this is a big no no and has big consequences.
When I was her age and in a similar situation (though not handled nearly so roughly), my parents threatened to take legal action against the owners (for grabbing my arm).
Not that I was off the hook. As punishment, I was made to do a week of filing at my mom's company after school, where she paired me up with her least favorite co-worker -- unpaid.
That co-worker had a serious gas problem. Trust me, I learned my lesson.
That really solved nothing except maybe an issue with your parents. You didn't pay any sort of restitution to the people you stole from. And threatening legal action against them showed you that it was ok because you were wronged. Filing papers isn't even a punishment! People get paid to do it!
Interesting that the big mouth shyster consistently calls her "honey", as though she's a little angel. Hope somebody gives "honey" the shyster's address. Then "honey" and her friends can burglarize the shyster's residence at a later date, in order to show her gratitude.
Apparently "honey" by resisting, managed to elevate the incident from a misdemeanor to a felony. You go girl!!! Future potential employers take note. Then again "honey" may not be concerned, since stealing and living off public assistance in the future might be the preferred life style.

This is so stupid and unnecessary IMO. We shoplifted on occasion as young teens, the worst that would happen (70's) is the store owner would chase us. It's a phase, and this to me is a nutso over-reaction.
I never shoplifter and I was a poor as a church mouse. She knows right from wrong, and chooses to disobey the law. She is on the road to a hoodlum life. There should be consequences.
Cash me ousside, howbow dah?! Damn, dey cash me...

Quote from the mother
Quote:
The girl’s mother, Jackie VanDuker, says she understands what her daughter did was wrong, but the way it was handled was excessive.
“It was all wrong. She did steal and that's wrong, she needs to be held accountable for that candy bar, but the way they handled it was all wrong,” VanDuker said.
Having read the above posts, hopefully you don't mean literally. All that does is make 2 more people criminals.
No, not literally, physically... I meant to give her punishment that will make whatever the jurisdiction gives her seem inconsequential.
I watched that video again, that loud mouthed woman with the phone is really irritating. Plus, I highly doubt she is an attorney as she claims. I think all she did was goad the girl on making it worse.
