And after welcoming her son Gage into the world, Amy explained what happened before that arrest. At the time, Amy did not work. And she struggled with her grandfather’s death.
“I really wanted this book and I thought, ‘Well, I’m going to try to steal it.’ So I put it in my purse. When I walked out the door at Walmart it beeped, the security thing,” recalled Amy. “The person came over to me and was like ‘Did you steal anything?’ And I said ‘No, you can check my bag.’ He checked and was like, ‘There is a book right here, did you pay for it’?”
And when the security guard reviewed the footage, he contacted the police. That led to a trip to the police station, where police obtained her fingerprints and took a mugshot. However, Amy also claimed that she spent time in a “drunk tank” for several hours before her mother arrived.

I don’t care how many people do it, the facts are that it’s illegal in Kentucky and she knows it. She’s not above the law. She shouldn’t get special treatment just because she’s not too smart. Besides, a 400 pound woman with the munchies is dangerous territory. Seriously.
