Welcome to the age of teenagers.

i seem to remember a few actreses who stole, but they were so sorry, please

Wow, she is ruining her life. Nobody will hire her now, cause she got a record.

I can't believe that we live in a world in which you can fit $288 worth of clothes into a handbag.

titan....It is a misdemeanor....easily taken care of in court and then with an expungement four or five years down the road.

She is such a pretty girl.

Feel sad for her and her beautiful family and friends.

she had the world in hand...dumb,dumb...mistake...what are kids thinking of these days....

Pat Boone shop-lifted as a teen-ager in Nashville, Tennessee....don't know if he was ever caught but he told about it in one of his biographies.

Only reason Pat Boone did that BS wasn't cause he had any guilt feelings like he stated. He did it for the publicity. He was trying look at me I am a clean honest person. Yeah OK? I never bought that bull any more than I bought Jimmy Swaggart, while he was on television with his alligator tears rolling saying I have sinned against you Lord. Cause he was caught with a prostitute. They all just sold everyone swamp land. Also it should be dropped and forgotten about later on. Its not a big deal. Not condoning her actions. But we need to stop holding on to BS. There is much worse things going on in this world than a crazy shoplifting incident.

a sure case of lohanitis.

Look, folks, it is a misdemeanor. She'll get supervision and perhaps a fine. She'll have to pay a fine directly to the store, too. She can file an Expungement request without an attorney. Cost used to be $65.00...not sure what it is now. Wait is usually 4 or 5 years.

Making much 'ado about nothing.

Sounds like too many of you are watching those dopey killers on "First 48".

This is as basic a shoplifting charge as can be.

It's not her fault, it's the liberals! They are all up to something, you betcha!

It's the fault of those liberals! They are up to such doings.

Several years ago I knew Miss Wyoming, a friend of my daughter's.. She had to find a sponcer or more to provide clothing for the competition. She didn't steal anything but she sure had a hard time finding any company to sponcer her and/or furnish outfits for the competition. Step back for a minute and think of the clothes those girls have to get. In Wyoming, there wasn't any big named sponcers around. I don't know this girl's financial background but maybe she did what others have done... Wrong YES, but understandable.

Now, I gotta say she's a fantastic looking girl. All of you who have posted negative comments are ..... I'll pay her a bail anytime

A good shoplifters team knows the best tricks. You get a real beuty and she flirts witht the clerk while the ugly girl steals them blind. Later they split up 60/40 beuaty/ugly. With this methid the skys the limit . A good teem can do very well and work many stores in one area and clean out all in few days and then on to the next hood or town. good luck but remember it is illegal!!!! LOL

Stacie Juris will not be able to compete in Miss Illinois USA because of this next year, most likely.

Beauty doesn't last forever. That's the thing, people try to use their beauty to get away with things. She might as well be dancing at a strip joint.

Who cares?
She was took some overpriced clothes that were made by young childgren in another country for meer penny's. ah, Everybody always gets caught. It's a reality check for her now.
Now the legal team makes a profit next... and she gets dragged thru the mud...
Lesson learned. She got a little greedy, that's all.

Jim,

Are you for real? Those poor girls have to enter these contests and the clothes are so expensive, they can't find someone to sponsor them so they have no other choice than to shoplift? I have another choice for you..... don't enter the contest!

Shoplifting is not setting a good example to others. What kind of a role model is this ? She should be disqualified from entering any pageant and what if she steals clothing from the other contestants?
