Why do news outlets give criminals like this a VOICE?! She stole from a business and then wondered why she was handcuffed? How about she and her husband take responsibilty for their actions instead of blaming someone else. Just another reason to be cynical of everything the news reports.

Maybe, if they can't feed 1 child, they shouldn't be having anymore of them! Also, there are numerous " services" out there they could have asked for help from, none would deny a child and a baby food!!
