Results: Police Officer Buys Groceries for Woman Accused of Shoplifting?
Published on 10/24/2013
A woman tried to walk off with $300 worth of groceries in order to feed her children at home, but was caught by the police. When the women explained to the officer why she chose to steal the food, the police officer chose to buy her some groceries as arresting her “wasn't going to solve the problem with her children being hungry." Although not arrested, the woman was charged with a misdemeanor and a notice to appear in court.
