Glass houses brahI watched this will Smith movie about identity thieves. We should treat them like terrorists cause that's what they are. Some literally are.I think identity thieves should be executed. When I hear what their victims go through.The wild-child niece of former Veep Joe Biden stole more than $100,000 in a credit card scam — and quietly cut a plea deal in Manhattan court that spares her any jail time, The Post has learned.
Using a borrowed credit card, the blonde Caroline Biden set up an unauthorized customer account at Bigelow Pharmacy on Sixth Avenue in Greenwich Village, and racked up the six-figure bill over the course of a year, according to a criminal complaint that does not name the victim card owner.
As part of a plea deal before Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Kevin McGrath, Biden, 29, pleaded guilty to one charge of grand larceny and another of petit larceny and agreed to make restitution of $110,810.04.

I understand there are perks to being a government official. But why are those perks now extended to family?
Okay, so any one of us on USMB involves themselves with identity theft, steals over 100K, would we expect to get a slap on the hand and just go home?
As this article points out, this isn't her first run-in with the law. The last time she ran into trouble, she threatened the police by asking them if they knew who she was and what ramifications might be in store for them. Again, she got a break that most of us would never get.
Or better yet. You become your victims slave. You want to steal someone's identity? Now that person owns you
I couldn't agree more. After all, the only way to minimize crime is a strong enough deterrent. Death is about the strongest.
Yet people act like it's no biggy.
Stories like this are no help, especially for the Democrat party. It makes them look shifty when strings like this are pulled. And if this judge gets a similar case like this in the future, and hands down a much harsher sentence to a nobody, that makes it even worse when the media finds out.
Kind of reminds me of Pat Kennedy. He got loaded and plowed his car into some concrete barriers in Washington. He was whisked away by some government flunkies and rushed him to his home. No DUI test, no ride to the police station, just ran him home like a bomb was about to go off nearby.
Things like this make the Democrats look like they are all above the law. Maybe her lawyers took a tip from Hillary, and stated she didn't know she was breaking the law. People are just fed up with these kinds of stunts already.
