Topic: New Mexico woman faces trial for $2 pumpkin | |

She claims it was a big misunderstanding, deputies say there is nothing to misunderstand. The incident happened on the night of October 28, 2011. A deputy who was keeping an eye on the Haunted Farm event says she witnessed Lauren Medina, 23, and a male friend each grab a pumpkin from a display barrel and then walk out of the park and to their car. That is when deputies detained them and cited them for shoplifting. http://www.krqe.com/dpp/news/crime/alleged-pumpkin-caper-goes-to-court/ So much for them forgetting to pay.......... ![]() |

http://www.koat.com/r/30490595/detail.html Yikes, she will go in front of a jury. I have NEVER seen that happen on a Petty Larceny and police were the ones who stopped her not an employee of the place. Then she was offered a deal if she pled guilty she would get probation. There has to be something more going on there then just a small theft. It is her choice.....everyone has a right to a jury of their peers no matter the charge I think you are right. I've just never seen it done. |
