Poverty often forces people to do what they will never do in a normal situation. That is why, when a woman had a choice: to steal or allow her children to go hungry, she without hesitation chose the first. She tried to take out of the store, without paying, only five eggs, but unsuccessfully. She was caught almost immediately.
Poor woman's story
When policeman William Stacy arrived at the scene and found out about the story of the woman, instead of arresting her, he decided to come to the rescue.
It turned out that the “delinquent” woman brings up 2 daughters, a sister and two grandchildren, one of whom is only a year old, and the second - three. They live on only a hundred and twenty dollars a month. However, apparently, fate considered that this was not enough. Someone robbed a woman last week, and the family ended up on the verge of starvation. On Saturday, two days have passed since the last time they ate. Therefore, the woman decided to go to the supermarket. She had a little over one dollar and the determination to acquire 5 eggs.
Shopping trip
The woman was in great despair when she discovered that the eggs were a little more expensive than she had expected, but she still put 5 pieces inside her pockets. Unfortunately, she was detained, and eggs were taken. “I'm probably a useless thief, ” she said.

Employees of the supermarket drew attention to her immediately after they noticed that the egg yolk and squirrels had leaked from both pockets of the woman. The poor thing immediately admitted that she had stolen them to feed her family. Police arrived at the store’s call, but when officer William Stacy heard why the woman had done so badly, he decided not to detain her.
A unanimous decision was made not to sue Mrs. Johnson and release on all four sides. But when an officer came to her, she was convinced that he was going to arrest her. She started to cry.
