From Earthlink's news: Quote: |
Debra Janan Goins, 39, of Church Hill, Tennessee, learned to always write each transaction in the checkbook register. So when she went on a shopping spree by forging checks from a stolen pocketbook she continued the practice, perhaps careful not to bounce any of the victim's checks. Goins, who was charged with felony theft and burglary, had snatched a purse from an unoccupied car parked at an elementary school and went shopping with a checkbook from it. She'd spent just over $1,000 on blankets, pillows, a few children's toys, a child's prescription medicine and two cell phones. The stores never asked her for identification.
