LAKE HARMONY, Pa. — A woman who made her 6-year-old daughter steal a volunteer fire company’s fundraising jar was sentenced to prison.
The crime netted the family $1.85.
ADDICTION BLAMED
Judith Weidner, 42, had told police she needed the change for gasoline, but in court she blamed a heroin addiction.
Judge David W. Addy sentenced Weidner on Monday to one to three years in prison for the January 2005 theft.
CAUGHT ON TAPE
Security films show Weidner distracting a convenience store clerk while her daughter took a small fireman’s boot used to collect change for a volunteer fire company effort. The boot was later found in the trash at a car wash.
REMORSE
“What I did to her was wrong,” Weidner said. “I feel so bad about it.”
“ROCK BOTTOM”
Public defender Paul J. Levy said Weidner, a mother of five from Tobyhanna Township in northeastern Pennsylvania, suffers from bipolar disorder and other mental-health problems. She pleaded guilty last year to corruption of minors and conspiracy to commit theft but failed to show for a November sentencing date. She was then arrested April 29.
Weidner’s attorney said her children are no longer in her custody.
“She has hit rock bottom,” Levy said. “I think knowing what she did got the better of her.” | |

She needs to stop procreating. 5 kids? good God. and do any of them have jobs? probably not. probably live off the fat of their mom. THIS FAMILY type is one of the reasons why this country is so messed up; no values, no guidance, just coasting through life as worthless/motionless peices of crap. Her kids need to be put to work in the chinese Wal-Mart sweat shops or at the fire department where they live so that they know what it's like to earn little to nothing for working hard, and to understand what "gratification for one's job" is. |

|  | We're not that bright, even though in our own little world, we're geniuses. We like 80s hair bands and one-hit wonders, but among us we have respectable tastes, too. Metallica, Iron Maiden, U2. Pursuit of all things trivial is a lifestyle, not just a game. We like some sports, love other sports, and can find something to say about anything. We watch TV and movies and we've read a book or two, even a few classics (Yes, Classic Comics count!)

|  | What is up FoCo?
I am a recent college graduate of Minnesota State University Moorhead. After recieving my B.A. in English and Mass Communications this past August I moved down to Colorado.
I enjoy long walks on the beach, candlelight dinners, and heavy metal. My hobbies include reading and writing, music, movies, and getting drunk. Some of my favorite contemporary authors include Bret Easton Ellis, Chuck Palahniuk, and Kurt Vonnegut. My top movies are anything directed by Kubrick. I enjoy listening to anything that rocks.
Right now I am just trying to get to know Colorado and FoCo better. Mostly in order to find the best drink specials on each day that ends in Y. So if you know where I can get a cheap drunk on, let me know!
