Question

Person E was convicted of shoplifting some cold cuts from a supermarket. She is 30 years old and the single mother of two children, ages six and eight. She testified in court that she needed the cold cuts for her children because her food stamps for the month had run out. Because she has no siblings and her parents refuse to take care of her children, it is likely they will go into foster care during any time she spends in jail. The maximum sentence for the value of her shoplifting is four months in jail.
