You be the judge. What should the verdict be for the 80 year old shoplifter?


An 80 year old woman was caught shoplifting some yarn from a crafts store. At her hearing she was very remorseful & swore it would never happen again. What do think should be the verdict?

I thief is a thief. She has probably been stealing all her life. Sealing is despicable no matter what your age.

Good Heavens!  She should have to pay somehow.  30 days house arrest should be enough.  I hear that lots of elderly people steal.  I just didn't think they would be this elderly.  She has probably paid a plenty just by getting caught.

i never thought of old people as thieves....until i saw what all goes on in my mother in law's gated apartment building....old people stealing clothes out of the laundry facilities and all kinds of stuff that makes you want to just scratch your head...
