If this thief has a nursing license, the Texas licensure board needs to remove her licensure. This woman has no more business taking care of vulnerable people.
Absolutely. 100% she has been stealing from all the vulnerable patients. SO SO many nurses these days are full time criminals, who pretend to be nurses. They like the access to the drugs that they can take and sell. And they steal everything they can from the vulnerable. THAT is why she's so worried about losing her license. Not because she has some vocation. She was so used to stealing from people who are infirm and unable to get help, that it made her figure she could expand her crime to people who aren't ill. She forgot that people who aren't frightened, in pain and ill, are better at calling criminals to account. This is just the first time she's been caught.
@@EricNelson-f4b Most States only have automatic revocation for felonies or drug offenses. As long as it's a misdemeanor that doesn't directly implicate patient care _explicitly_, you can often slide by.
My wife took over as PTA Treasurer and discovered that the previous treasurer had stolen over 21,000 using forgeries. The DA refused to investigate, so my wife did a full investigation (including trips to 2 other states to get affidavits) and handed it with a bow to the DA. He finally got off his dead arse and charged her. She was forced to pay it back, 6 months in jail, 2 years probation. I got to see her in orange coveralls picking up garbage beside the road.
GRRR - My nephews wife started gambling when her kids were all young - my nephew was a coach of most of their games, he wanted to die of embarrassment when it was found his wife had stolen thousands of dollars so she could go gamble and drink, their kids also were humiliated in front of all their friends and team mates, it's not just the thief who suffers consequences!!!!!
@@happycamper4ever873 The problem is that not everyone has the benefit of knowing that he wasn't also in on it. We have that benefit, as we have his aunt relating the story to us, but not everyone would've had that advantage, so there would've been some judgy people who would've "just known" that he was in on it too. Those kind of people who live for gossip and drama.
If she wasn't a nurse the judge would know and likely have scolded her for claiming to be one. It's very easy to check if someone is registered as a nurse or not.
You hit the nail on the head with this. Even in court she thought she'd talk her way out of this one. My mother is a narcissist. She tried to sue me for grandparents rights of my children. With no evidence she thought she'd walk in to court with no lawyer and claim she raised my kids since birth. First judge believed her even though we proved her work schedule wouldn't allow it. We hired a new lawyer and she got the judge to recuse herself due to the bias she had shown. 2nd judge apologized to us that we've had to spend a year in court and all our savings when it's clear my mother is a liar. She was given nothing and has been out of our lives since. She was a master manipulated her whole life and finally ran into a judge she couldn't do that to. He saw right through her. It's such sweet justice when someone calls them on their bullshit. It typically has to be someone in a place of authority because they don't give a crap if they hurt their own family or friends.
Perjury? That’s not gonna happen. People lie in court all the time. It’s accepted, to a point. They rarely charge someone with perjury. They would have to charge everyone that’s been found guilty that said they didn’t do it. It’s not how it works 👍👍

Something like this happened in my small town of 1,000 residents. The gal that took 10,000 from the little league was punished by prison and was ostracized by the whole community. She eventually moved away in shame.
The way ot should be handled ! Because in any community but especially a small one she not only stile from the little league, she from everyone who had donated

Nursing license? It should be pulled, or at the very least she shouldn't be allowed to handle any prescription drugs, particularly narcotics. They have a street price and this thief will take advantage of that.
I do love how her attorney won’t look at her….priceless. Also, she most likely forged a bank account statement and tendered it to the police during the investigation. Wow she is a con woman.
@@dennisdupuis1567 No, I wouldn't. I'd be angry, I'd feel betrayed, but even if I was wrongly convicted I would appeal until I was vindicated or until the appeals ran out. But if there was a conviction on my record, it wouldn't be because I said I did something I didn't do.
Its texas, pro criminal from the top down. Her guilty plea was for less then a slap on the hand and paying back what she stole - thats going to keep her from doing it again - I surprised the fraudster AG hasnt already got them to drop the charges
it doesn't matter in what capacity she works in nursing-assistant or license-it should be revoked-she has no business in the care of vulnerable people.
That was a shot across the bow of the DA and defense attorney as well. It was a warning to them to not bring deals like that in front of him when the defendant is still claiming innocence.
You go - Judge! Gal (and two others) steal from a children's baseball fundraiser & acts like it is OK as long as she smirks and smiles. Put your nursing license and your children in jeopardy when you agreed with others to steal. Ha ha ha ha - Trial.
@@Mouse_007 Maybe so. Boy the Judge schooled her on what it means to swear to the truth. . . He was pissed off that it meant nothing to her so he showed her what perjury is all about.
Ive seen so many people mess up their plea deals doing exactly what this girl did. She didn't just put her foot in her mouth, she ate both shoes and socks😂
why didn't her lawyer suggest a "no contest" plea, it's not an admission of guilt, but an acceptance that the state is able to find you guilty in a trial.. instead of committing perjury
Texas law doesn't allow for a 'no contest' plea for felonies, but I'm not sure if she's facing a felony charge. There are also limits to a 'no contest' plea if the victim has filed a civil suit related to the crime. There's a handful of circumstances that could've prevented her doing so, but you could be right... she may not have had, nor heeded, counsel's recommendation.
Victims are all the individuals who donated and the children who were the individuals in need of the donations. If she had conditions for restitution, that won’t allow a no contest plea. She did it to herself, she plead guilty prior to this appearance, that’s what the judge cornered her on-she signed the document under penalty of perjury. Then tried to get it on the record that she wasn’t guilty and only agreed to plead guilty to save her license. That could be used on appeal, that she was coerced to plead guilty.
@@FollowingfromafarBooth-jz4jq right the charity was a victim, but I meant for the civil lawsuit., I suppose the charity could sue, but that would end up with the money going to the lawyers, SO I hope she is ordered full restitution and community service, I thi k prison would be a waste of taxpayer money.

You just gonna stand there and lie on top of lies to justify yourself? To make matters worse you don’t even try to repay what you stole claiming you didn’t know anything about them wanting restitution?

Unfortunately, stealing from children's sports is a story as old as time. Every football, baseball sports league has had at least one person take the uniform money and ran. Everyone of them is innocent and the money is never seen again.
A girl I grew up with did this - no jail time - and now she’s working for one of the busiest lawyers in town I guess some people are just above the law or shame
She will not be holding a nursing license once this is done. She threw that away the second she stole the money. If you will steal from a fundraiser you will steal from a patient. We can’t have that. Hope someone notified the state.
Normally not one to tolerate lectures from the bench, but this was pretty humorous. Confronted with her BS stories, I didn't take the money, I didn't write the check, I wrote the check, the bank statement. Yep, pull ANY professional license (nursing) and prevent any filing for government benefits (rent, food, cash, healthcare, or disability) which would also be fraudulent.
She stole money from the children! And, she hoped to steal from her father, too! For $3,000 she lost her dignity and respect from her family and community!
She could because she had her deceased father’s checkbook. The account may have been closed or in limbo, the bank kicked the check back for non-sufficient-funds, not that the account was no longer in existence.
@@FollowingfromafarBooth-jz4jqI know, but once someone dies doesn’t all that stuff go into probate? Maybe she was on the account too, but I’d think it’s still illegal to sign the check of a deceased person?
Yeah, usually-but banks and other companies like phone companies etc have a bad rep on refusing to close accounts even when proof of death is provided. Sometimes if the bank account has a modest amount and any automated deposits are stopped, the hassle the bank causes just makes people let the account go dormant or run out of funds ( especially being drained by service fees ) till it goes negative. Then the bank continues to be an asshat or just closes the account. That can last for a few years. She probably had some old checks to a long gone account or one that the bank had in the negative and were stupidly still assessing service fees, she shot off a check she knew wasn’t valid. That’s the hinky documentation she tried to use, mocked up statements etc.
A friend in mine and I attempted to take over treasury for Little League once due to ‘an internal issue’…… it was a complete disaster. None of the money matched any of the receipts given to us. We counted all of the money (multiple times) gave them a total and handed it right back and said no thanks.
Her job needs to research history on ALL patients she may have come in contact with! Research medicine, personal belongings, and financial matters as well!
When i was in about the 9th grade, i joined a softball team. My parents shelled out money for a uniform and cap and whatever else just like the other girls' parents. There were probably a dozen or more girls. At our first practice the "coach" who had collected the money was a no-show. He stole it all. I'm 70 years old now. The hurt is still there. The mistrust never left.
Also, raising money for a children’s softball team through raffling off a liquor basket ? Kind of weird no ? Kids and liquor don’t really go together even if this is meant to be for the parents.
This is the part when the defense attorney respectfully asks the Judge for a few moments to speak with her client. Then her attorney drags to the side of the courtroom and whispers in her ear that if she lies under oath one more time she will no longer have a lawyer. And the client starts crying and swears she will tell the whole truth. Sigh. Been there, done that (not as the defendant but as the defense attorney.). But her attorney needs to step up and stop her client from lying to the judge. The lawyer should know this Judge is no-nonsense. She should have had her client much better prepared so stupid things don’t happen.
She said it before the Lawyer had a chance to stop her. And just because a persons lawyer tells them what to say does not mean the person they are defending is gong to do what they were told especially criminals that have a very hard time with doing the right thing in the first place. And if this thief had paid it back or was in the process of paying it back that Judge would have maybe given her a little community service. As the Judge said if she had paid it back it would have gone very differently.
I have the greatest respect for Judge Stevens. He is the most fair judge I have ever watched. A lot of people get exactly what they deserve when they appear before him and lie and try their bullshit. He's not having it.
So... someone (who definitely wasn't her) wrote a check from her deceased father's checking account to the softball league for a fundraiser she was in charge of, and said check bounced... but she claims she paid the softball league the proceeds from the fundraiser. How did she pay? By magic? And who is writing checks off of her deceased father's checking accounts without her permission but to cover her financial responsibilities? We need to find this crooked individual! (end sarcasm) Does she listen to herself? How does any of that make sense to ANYONE?
If she was so worried about her license, she shouldn't have done it to begin with. And what's the difference between going to trial or pleading guilty? It means the same thing on her record. Guilty is guilty.
I know someone who did this in Ohio. Took around 12,000 from a youth football team. Got 30 days in the county jail & a 750 fine. 3 years parole, of some kind.
*THIS is why you **_always_** hire an attorney to speak FOR you! Instead of pleading "Guilty", she should have been pleading "No Contest", aka an "Alford Plea". And by having an attorney to speak FOR YOU, you cannot place even more incriminating evidence into the record! Lawyers are expensive, and most of us cannot stand them, but this is why they are a **_necessary_** evil!*
@@Mouse_007 I would say that people hate lawyers because they charge insanely high prices to defend a person's basic rights (i.e. supposedly God-given rights). Though this isn't entirely the lawyers' fault (it comes about because the government almost always takes the path of least resistance, which is almost always a bad outcome), they profit off of it at the expense of others. Furthermore, many tactics lawyers use, like the Alford Plea, are seen as unjust by the people, as it often lets criminals (with money) get away with crimes, especially crimes that other people (without access to money) would be convicted of and punished far more harshly for (because of lack of access to a competent, read: expensive, legal defense instead of a free public defender, most of whom provide a terrible level of service due to overwork). People see lawyers as the embodiment of all that is wrong and corrupt in the legal system, and such a view at least dates back to Shakespeare. As the Wikipedia states: "The line ["Kill all the lawyers"] has been interpreted in different ways: criticism of how lawyers maintain the privilege of the wealthy and powerful; implicit praise of how lawyers stand in the way of violent mobs; and criticism of bureaucracy and perversions of the rule of law." Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Let%27s_kill_all_the_lawyers
i am confused here. is it not unusual to take a guilty plea if one cannot prove innocence and current evidence points to them? often DA's will put offers on the table for a lesser sentence if one pleas guilty and doesn't drag the case into trial. there are a ridiculous amount of not guilty people sitting in prison rn. in fact, many have been later proven not guilty, yet the states refuse to release them and most are still being illegally detained. the courts and judges sure like to talk a big talk about morals yet spend the entirety of their time in some out of touch bubble playing golf and their noses in the air and head up their azzes. secondly, you will always notice it is the poor that are getting "layed into" by some slick talking southern accented hypocrite. for instance, good luck holding ANY of these judges accountable for anything they do wrong in any meaningful way. they literally get fined some pittance at best, walk away millionaires having already ruined so many lives at worst. there needs to be more leashes put on these oligarch lap dogs more scrutiny into EVERYTHING, not just these little snippets trying to paint judges in some bs light and narrative. no they do far more evil then good. don't believe me? take the time and actually watch them in action consistently and you will see what i mean.
She doesn't know what a paragraph is so any license she has is an easily obtained nursing certificate like a certified nursing assistant. And 100% a thief doesn't need access to vulnerable people. She'll steal them blind including medication(s).
I was the Treasurer of the High School Softball booster club. There was suppose to be 2 ppl involved in the checking account and counting money. I ended up doing it on my own. I made sure every single penny was accounted for and made sure I had every single receipt snd every signature for purchases. I can’t imagine the embarrassment she caused her daughter… The treasurer of our football team stole over 20 grand the year b4 so I was extra super careful.
Not that I believe her, but innocent people plead guilty in courtrooms every day in America. It has happened in this judge's court many times as well...
The fastest way to a happy life built on peace of mind - never, never , lie - no matter what and learn to be grateful for punishment that can turn you into a magnificent human being.
She may have a CNA license, that is state regulated. If she was an actual licensed nurse, you pick up a shift once a week at an agency, she could have easily banked enough to fulfill restitution. I know licensed nurses that have full time positions ( 36 to 40 hours a week/ by 12 hour shifts ) who then pick up a shift via an agency about 3 or 4 times a month-that agency pay is $$$! Some of them literally use the agency paychecks for most of their bills and bank their full time salaries. If they need X amount for the next month, and 4 or 5 agency shifts cover that-they will book the shifts ahead of time.
WOW, this criminal certainly stopped those hugh crocodile "tears" from flowing when she thought Judge Stevens decided not to go to trial. Such a happy face when she faces the camera while walking away from the table!!! Actually I believe it was a smirk!!!
*She 100% made the judge destroy her.* Pleads guilty, then proceeds to proclaim her innocence. 15 months in, zero restitution made. _Shame. Tsk, tsk._ Faked evidence, poorly, AFTER committing fraud by attempting to steal from her dead father.
She thinks people will believe the lie she's told them -- i didn't do it but I'm pleading guilty because of my nursing license. Miss ma'am! Nobody buys your funky story
I would say this. If you say you are not guilty then we are not going to accept a guilty plea. No way we are letting you plead if you didn’t do it. So….. we are going to get you an attorney, you are going to trial, if you are found guilty then you will get the maximum., unless you want to tell us what really happened now? Either tell the truth of go to trial. That’s your choices.

Unfortunately, stealing from children's sports is a story as old as time. Every football, baseball sports league has had at least one person take the uniform money and ran. Everyone of them is innocent and the money is never seen again.
A girl I grew up with did this - no jail time - and now she’s working for one of the busiest lawyers in town
I guess some people are just above the law or shame
damn when the judge is so angry he is shaking and threatening to collect scalps you best stop playing games
She will not be holding a nursing license once this is done. She threw that away the second she stole the money. If you will steal from a fundraiser you will steal from a patient. We can’t have that. Hope someone notified the state.
You can’t fix stupid.
People do this all the time. Get a second job and make extra $$$, don’t steal. You jeopardize everything.😢😢😢
Oh this was absolutely glorious to watch.
The lengths that people go to in order to save face and escape accountability is a wonder to behold.
Truth justice and the Judge Stevens way !!
These criminals do not give a dang about anything but themselves. Thank God for this Judge that is trying to get people to do better.
Normally not one to tolerate lectures from the bench, but this was pretty humorous. Confronted with her BS stories, I didn't take the money, I didn't write the check, I wrote the check, the bank statement. Yep, pull ANY professional license (nursing) and prevent any filing for government benefits (rent, food, cash, healthcare, or disability) which would also be fraudulent.
Compulsive liar she just cannot admit that she stole the money..😮😮
She stole money from the children! And, she hoped to steal from her father, too! For $3,000 she lost her dignity and respect from her family and community!
Right? She needs to be charged with that as well! Can you even write a check from a dead persons bank acct?!
She could because she had her deceased father’s checkbook. The account may have been closed or in limbo, the bank kicked the check back for non-sufficient-funds, not that the account was no longer in existence.
@@FollowingfromafarBooth-jz4jqI know, but once someone dies doesn’t all that stuff go into probate? Maybe she was on the account too, but I’d think it’s still illegal to sign the check of a deceased person?
Yeah, usually-but banks and other companies like phone companies etc have a bad rep on refusing to close accounts even when proof of death is provided. Sometimes if the bank account has a modest amount and any automated deposits are stopped, the hassle the bank causes just makes people let the account go dormant or run out of funds ( especially being drained by service fees ) till it goes negative. Then the bank continues to be an asshat or just closes the account. That can last for a few years. She probably had some old checks to a long gone account or one that the bank had in the negative and were stupidly still assessing service fees, she shot off a check she knew wasn’t valid. That’s the hinky documentation she tried to use, mocked up statements etc.
A friend in mine and I attempted to take over treasury for Little League once due to ‘an internal issue’…… it was a complete disaster. None of the money matched any of the receipts given to us. We counted all of the money (multiple times) gave them a total and handed it right back and said no thanks.
Her job needs to research history on ALL patients she may have come in contact with! Research medicine, personal belongings, and financial matters as well!
Soooo glad you caught this, the video it was removed before I saw the resolution.
When i was in about the 9th grade, i joined a softball team. My parents shelled out money for a uniform and cap and whatever else just like the other girls' parents. There were probably a dozen or more girls.
At our first practice the "coach" who had collected the money was a no-show. He stole it all. I'm 70 years old now. The hurt is still there. The mistrust never left.
Does an "Alford Plea" not apply here? She admits that there is enough evidence to convict her and she is going to take responsibility for it.
Also, raising money for a children’s softball team through raffling off a liquor basket ? Kind of weird no ? Kids and liquor don’t really go together even if this is meant to be for the parents.
Well I imagine it's usually adults stumping up the cash, not children.
As an RN, we don’t claim her as one of ours.
Surprised her atty didn’t negotiate a no contest plea instead of guilty if she was so set on not admitting she did it.
Don't play with Judge Stevens.
This is the part when the defense attorney respectfully asks the Judge for a few moments to speak with her client. Then her attorney drags to the side of the courtroom and whispers in her ear that if she lies under oath one more time she will no longer have a lawyer. And the client starts crying and swears she will tell the whole truth. Sigh. Been there, done that (not as the defendant but as the defense attorney.). But her attorney needs to step up and stop her client from lying to the judge. The lawyer should know this Judge is no-nonsense. She should have had her client much better prepared so stupid things don’t happen.
She said it before the Lawyer had a chance to stop her. And just because a persons lawyer tells them what to say does not mean the person they are defending is gong to do what they were told especially criminals that have a very hard time with doing the right thing in the first place.
And if this thief had paid it back or was in the process of paying it back that Judge would have maybe given her a little community service. As the Judge said if she had paid it back it would have gone very differently.
I have the greatest respect for Judge Stevens. He is the most fair judge I have ever watched. A lot of people get exactly what they deserve when they appear before him and lie and try their bullshit. He's not having it.
His voice is like butter.....I would never listen to books on tape......but, if he narrated a book, I would def have to listen
Okay so she stole over $3k and then wrote a check off her deceased father doesn’t that mean she stole $6k?
Math is not my strong point, I believe your math to be correct.
lol ! You have a great point.
She should be charged with forgery too.
This was good! Take her nursing license away!!
So... someone (who definitely wasn't her) wrote a check from her deceased father's checking account to the softball league for a fundraiser she was in charge of, and said check bounced... but she claims she paid the softball league the proceeds from the fundraiser. How did she pay? By magic? And who is writing checks off of her deceased father's checking accounts without her permission but to cover her financial responsibilities? We need to find this crooked individual! (end sarcasm) Does she listen to herself? How does any of that make sense to ANYONE?
If she was so worried about her license, she shouldn't have done it to begin with. And what's the difference between going to trial or pleading guilty? It means the same thing on her record. Guilty is guilty.
I know someone who did this in Ohio. Took around 12,000 from a youth football team. Got 30 days in the county jail & a 750 fine. 3 years parole, of some kind.
Isn't it pretty common for individuals to take a plea deal because they don't want to risk the alternative?
LMAO Court Nerds listing all the people at the end of the video
*THIS is why you **_always_** hire an attorney to speak FOR you! Instead of pleading "Guilty", she should have been pleading "No Contest", aka an "Alford Plea". And by having an attorney to speak FOR YOU, you cannot place even more incriminating evidence into the record! Lawyers are expensive, and most of us cannot stand them, but this is why they are a **_necessary_** evil!*
Please explain why you hate lawyers. I never really understood that perspective.
@@Mouse_007 I would say that people hate lawyers because they charge insanely high prices to defend a person's basic rights (i.e. supposedly God-given rights). Though this isn't entirely the lawyers' fault (it comes about because the government almost always takes the path of least resistance, which is almost always a bad outcome), they profit off of it at the expense of others. Furthermore, many tactics lawyers use, like the Alford Plea, are seen as unjust by the people, as it often lets criminals (with money) get away with crimes, especially crimes that other people (without access to money) would be convicted of and punished far more harshly for (because of lack of access to a competent, read: expensive, legal defense instead of a free public defender, most of whom provide a terrible level of service due to overwork). People see lawyers as the embodiment of all that is wrong and corrupt in the legal system, and such a view at least dates back to Shakespeare. As the Wikipedia states: "The line ["Kill all the lawyers"] has been interpreted in different ways: criticism of how lawyers maintain the privilege of the wealthy and powerful; implicit praise of how lawyers stand in the way of violent mobs; and criticism of bureaucracy and perversions of the rule of law."

@@Quagthistle thank you
She keeps looking toward her attorney to have her save her from herself. The attorney is already trying to figure out how to defend her in a trial.
The attorney is thinking about how to defend herself from Texas Bar sanctions because of giving her client unethical advice
Nurses make pretty good money these days, no reason she couldn’t have paid some of it back. Make her go to trial, it didn’t just disappear
i am confused here. is it not unusual to take a guilty plea if one cannot prove innocence and current evidence points to them? often DA's will put offers on the table for a lesser sentence if one pleas guilty and doesn't drag the case into trial. there are a ridiculous amount of not guilty people sitting in prison rn. in fact, many have been later proven not guilty, yet the states refuse to release them and most are still being illegally detained. the courts and judges sure like to talk a big talk about morals yet spend the entirety of their time in some out of touch bubble playing golf and their noses in the air and head up their azzes. secondly, you will always notice it is the poor that are getting "layed into" by some slick talking southern accented hypocrite. for instance, good luck holding ANY of these judges accountable for anything they do wrong in any meaningful way. they literally get fined some pittance at best, walk away millionaires having already ruined so many lives at worst. there needs to be more leashes put on these oligarch lap dogs more scrutiny into EVERYTHING, not just these little snippets trying to paint judges in some bs light and narrative. no they do far more evil then good. don't believe me? take the time and actually watch them in action consistently and you will see what i mean.
When your own lawyer won’t look at you while the judge admonishes you - you’re in trouble. 👿
A thief is a thief. God only knows what she's stolen from her employer and or her patients. To steal from children is absolutely horrible.
Put her in jail for a week and then see how she feels
It's a waste of breath to try to fool Judge Stevens.
He acts like this court system is all about the truth and it isnt
She should have paid it off the very first day she was found out. Same day.
She doesn't know what a paragraph is so any license she has is an easily obtained nursing certificate like a certified nursing assistant. And 100% a thief doesn't need access to vulnerable people. She'll steal them blind including medication(s).
I was the Treasurer of the High School Softball booster club. There was suppose to be 2 ppl involved in the checking account and counting money. I ended up doing it on my own. I made sure every single penny was accounted for and made sure I had every single receipt snd every signature for purchases. I can’t imagine the embarrassment she caused her daughter… The treasurer of our football team stole over 20 grand the year b4 so I was extra super careful.
3k?! I'm not risking jail for 3k.
An update is needed in this case when it comes about
Rookie mistake. Only prosecutors are allowed to lie to the court without consequences.
Not that I believe her, but innocent people plead guilty in courtrooms every day in America. It has happened in this judge's court many times as well...
The fastest way to a happy life built on peace of mind - never, never , lie - no matter what and learn to be grateful for punishment that can turn you into a magnificent human being.
If she was an actual nurse, then she’d be making good money and could afford to pay it back, but she’s not. That was probably a lie too.
She may have a CNA license, that is state regulated. If she was an actual licensed nurse, you pick up a shift once a week at an agency, she could have easily banked enough to fulfill restitution. I know licensed nurses that have full time positions ( 36 to 40 hours a week/ by 12 hour shifts ) who then pick up a shift via an agency about 3 or 4 times a month-that agency pay is $$$! Some of them literally use the agency paychecks for most of their bills and bank their full time salaries. If they need X amount for the next month, and 4 or 5 agency shifts cover that-they will book the shifts ahead of time.
That little half smile from the lawyer said it all at 3:00. She knew the girl screwed the pooch.
She probably went to McDonald's and spend the entire funds all there for her lunch!
WOW, this criminal certainly stopped those hugh crocodile "tears" from flowing when she thought Judge Stevens decided not to go to trial. Such a happy face when she faces the camera while walking away from the table!!! Actually I believe it was a smirk!!!
Habitual liars are very frustrating for anyone that deals with them.
After 15 months why does she still have a job for stealing ???
There's never any doubt about how Judge Stevens feels. 😶
Why do nurses think that they are above others. Just as bad as cop
She is still pleading guilty, but not guilty.
*She 100% made the judge destroy her.*
Pleads guilty, then proceeds to proclaim her innocence.
15 months in, zero restitution made. _Shame. Tsk, tsk._
Faked evidence, poorly, AFTER committing fraud by attempting to steal from her dead father.
Plenty of people are forced to take a plea instead of rolling the dice.
05:58 her lawyer is afraid she's gonna talk😂😂😂
She thinks people will believe the lie she's told them -- i didn't do it but I'm pleading guilty because of my nursing license. Miss ma'am! Nobody buys your funky story
I would say this. If you say you are not guilty then we are not going to accept a guilty plea. No way we are letting you plead if you didn’t do it. So….. we are going to get you an attorney, you are going to trial, if you are found guilty then you will get the maximum., unless you want to tell us what really happened now? Either tell the truth of go to trial. That’s your choices.
