Tara Kingrey, needs to go jail. Stop making deals and being Soft on Criminals. Plus, if she was a man would they have dropped more charges for trafficking in counterfeit goods - I DOUBT IT?
I am sorry but, every time I see this article, I laugh. Seriously, did people really think they were buying authentic LV items from this boutique? In Monett???
Can Beauty get you less jail time? Is that the Profession of the Future - Styling for your Court Appearance - to try and persuade the Jury, Prosecuting Attorney, and Judge - or should we try and Apply and Provide Equal Justice across the 2-Genders? It seems in several cases - that Women have Received - Unequal Justice than their Male Counterparts -
6:09 All the time, divorces, child custody, speeding tickets, assault,
Domestic violence, many many more
If the goods sold were something that could be hazardous or cause injury or catch fire or anything of that nature then perhaps - jail time would be warranted. But since they were unnecessary vanity purchases made by superficial people whose pride is bigger than their brains - no. No jail. Ideally a substantial fine, maybe restitution if one of the 'victims' spent a significant amount of money.
FYI - A Missouri flea market owner sentenced to 2 years in federal prison following his conviction for selling counterfeit goods - ST. LOUIS, MO — A suburban St. Louis businessman was sentenced to two years in federal prison following his conviction on multiple charges for selling counterfeit goods at a popular local flea market.
I’m curious about the store at Northpark Mall that has Chanel, LV, Nike etc. I’m sure it’s not authentic, so why are they allowed to sell counterfeit items when others are deemed criminal ?
