Scumbag. She got what she deserved. Enjoy prison! This couldn't happen to a better company either, its such a shame. This company employs local people, and treats every employee so well. I hope one rotten apple doesn't ruin that.
WPM is just corrupt as this woman. She deserves what she gets. But this womans ethics are pretty much standard for WPM.
Yep, she did it again!
Will continue to pray on the unsuspecting if allowed to be free.
Put her away for good, this time!
