My Assemblywoman , Mary Hayashi (a dem of course), was caught shoplifting $2500 of clothes from Nieman-Marcus at Union Square in SF. A clerk had said that a dress had disappeared a few weeks earlier when a woman tried it on. When Hayashi came in again, she told security and they followed her with the cameras. They caught her and it was a felony charge. Big surprise, here hubby is a judge and the charges were reduced to plain shoplifting. She paid $150, three years probation and has to stay at least 50 ft from the store. She gets to serve out her term because she is termed out in November. She is still thinking of running for the House of Representatives.
