THE PEOPLE SPEAK: Thief makes holidays rough for local family


Thanks, the purse you stole at the American Eagle — you know who you are, and I hope they got you on video-camera — that was my grandchildren’s, daughter’s and son-in-law’s Christmas money.

I hope you had a nice Christmas. My grandkids did not because of you. They needed coats, clothes and, of course, they won’t get toys.

Plus replacing everything a woman keeps in her purse isn’t an easy task.

Why don’t you get a job and leave other people’s belongings alone?
