Celebrity shoplifting: crime or illness?
Yesterday a judge sentenced a Hollywood star to six
months in prison for stealing Jewellery worth $5,000.
The celebrity could easily afford to buy the necklace,
so the question must be asked: is she a criminal or is
she sick?
Personally
, I believe that rich people who steal from
shops are sick. Shoplifting is like a drug for these
people. However, shoplifting is a crime and therefore
the celebrity broke the law.
For this reason, I think the judge made the right
decision.
hey should give half their money
people who sell them that should
they should pay a big fine and
ags every day for a month.
