Evelyn Border is seen holding a sign in front of the Bedford County courthouse in Bedford, Pa., earlier today. Bedford County District Attorney Bill Higgins says in exchange for Border and her daughter, Tina Griekspoor, both of Bedford, agreeing to hold the signs, he’ll ask for probation instead of jail when they plead guilty. The mother and daughter will be outside the court for forty-one-and-a-half hours, until 1:30 p.m. Tuesday. Higgins says they swiped a gift card which a girl set on a shelf. You write the cutline.

After her public humiliation by the judge Border returned to the scene wrapped from head to foot in plastic explosives, and “she ain’t my teacher no more.”

Bedford County District Attorney Bill Higgens was named “Best Instrument of the Great Satan” by a group of Taliban leaders yesterday for what the Taliban called “creative use of humiliation and shame to right societal wrongs.”

If these two were my daughter and grand-daughter, I’d turn them in, pre-hogtied, and not have any feelings of guilt whatsoever.
Boy, I’m mean.
