In these days and times of economic stress, there are people who are in dire need of extra cash. Some folks will do just about anything to make money, as a recent case in Central Texas has proven.
A 24-year-old woman from the Robinson area needed some cash to meet her needs and came up with a novel way to achieve that goal. What she did has her town in shock.
It seems that the skanky lass told family members, friends and fellow workers at her job that she was a victim of breast cancer. Of course, she garnered lots of sympathy from everyone. To show support, a fundraiser was held on her behalf and $10,000 worth of donations came in to help her pay her medical bills and other expenses. The community really rallied around this woman.
Turns out, however, that she did not have breast cancer at all, but used the monies she received to get a boob job. She even shaved her head to give the impression that she was having chemo. Her husband of 7 brief months even believed she had the dreaded disease.
Somehow her ruse was discovered and the jig was up. The lying babe was arrested by the cops for "theft by deception", later released on bail and now awaits her day in court.
Her colleagues are ticked off big time and groups for cancer support that raise funds for legitimate cancer victims fear her scam may negatively affect their efforts.
As for the hubby she supposedly got the boob enhancement to impress, he filed for an annulment.
