Does anybody else find this exceedingly strange? That a long tenured ex DA would break the law for a $40 shoplifting charge ... liquid bandages and deodorant.. is this a believe it or not??? I don't know if it falls under the world's dumbest criminals or criminals with some kind of strange habit. Am I missing something?
