Stuck In A Rut: Robbing The Same Place 3 Times In 24 Hours

[Dakota Valkyrie]

Latasha Singletary was charged with robbing Anna’s Liquors three times in the course of 24 hours.

It is the same store that she was charged with robbing slightly more than a year ago, police allege.
[...]

Three times in 24 hours, Singletary went into Anna’s Liquors, 280 Rodman St., to threaten the 52-year-old clerk with a knife and take money, cigarettes and lottery tickets from the store, police alleged.

“This is just a few days after the defendant offered a plea for intimidating a witness, the charge that put her on a suspended sentence,” prosecutor Adrienne Beauregard alleged during Singletary’s arraignment in District Court Thursday.

When she admitted to intimidating a witness, Singletary was ordered to stay away from Anna’s Liquors and from the clerk on duty when the store was robbed three times this week, Beauregard said.

There won’t be a fourth robbery soon, Judge Toby Mooney ruled. She ordered Singletary held in custody until a hearing can be held to determine if her arrest violates her probation on the earlier charge.
[...]

The case initially began on April 26, 2011, when Singletary was arrested and charged with robbing Anna’s Liquors.

That charge was reduced to intimidating a witness and Singletary was released on a year of supervised probation after admitting to the crime in District Court on June 5.

Trouble began again on Tuesday at 4 p.m. when a woman walked into Anna’s Liquors with a kitchen knife in her hand. The woman had her white T-shirt pulled up to cover her face, police reported.

The clerk ran out the back door. When she returned, a handful of cash was gone from the register, police reported.

Singletary returned to the store at 10 a.m. Wednesday to rob the business again, police allege. Detective Steve Washington went to the store to go through the video security. He immediately recognized the robber as Singletary, said Detective J.D. Costa, a department spokesman.
[...]

“While Officer Raul Camara was still writing his report, the store was robbed again,” Costa said. Police were called by the store clerk at 2 p.m., who reported the woman came back with the same knife to take cash, cigarettes and a bottle of booze, police reported.
[...]

Singletary was arrested inside an apartment at 136 John St. Police said they recovered lottery tickets, cigarettes and a bottle of Mojo Shot Blue Lagoon liquor, all reported taken during the robberies.

Maybe the first round of lottery tickets weren't winners so she wanted to play more?

This bitch was using this one store to support her nasty habits.. Why get a job when she can just steal from hard working people. This is the kind of person I can't stand.

Errr, there AREN'T any. Even if you have a degree or a trade.
I WANT a job, but I'm not gonna go steal.

That's a crock, there are always jobs available. People either aren't qualified, or don't want to do them. This bitch could have delivered newspapers, cleaned toilets, tried telemarketing...there is always something out there.

Move to ND. :) plenty of jobs. Wait no, we have nowhere to live.

It sucks EVERY WHERE. ahhh

It's summer, bring a tent.

No shortage of jobs to be had or places to live on our end of the state.

Totally agree. I live in a place where the unemployment rate is much higher than the national average. There are still jobs to be found. I actually know of multiple places hiring right now. If you don't mind working retail or fast food in order to get your bills paid.

My own boyfriend was laid off from a manufacture job in 07. He couldn't find a job that paid that same amount. We had to down size our life with a smaller house and only one car. But he found seasonal work at first, then part time at a fast food restaurant and finally he found a job making around what he used to make. Took us 5 years of struggle but he never went without a job and he never turned down work. I can't even begin to count all the jobs he had over that five year period but I can tell you he worked retail, fast food, pool maintenance, sales and much much more. He took whatever was offered to him. While all his friends were whining around no jobs he was working 2 or 3 at once.

ETA: I don't think anyone was saying YOU wouldn't work, we were talking about the bitch robbing people instead of working. I added the list of jobs in your area to prove a point, there are always jobs available.

I completely get what you're saying about there being no jobs.

I do Social Security, I am not a lawyer, I am a paralegal despite studying long and hard to become a lawyer it just won't happen in my life, I accept the fact that I have made some really terrible choices in my life and I wouldn't pass the "moral" test to get State Bar certification to practice, so I became a paralegal. You do not have to be a lawyer to rep people in front of a SS judge so I found my niche and worked harder in it than anyone ever expected. I got to the point where I traveled through NY training lawyer to do SS but it was a government job (legal seervices very much like legal aid but NO criminal defense) and the budget got cut by an unnamed government official in all 50 states so I got cut too. I tried desperately to get another job in my field and was told I was overqualified, after a couple of years of that I went into business for myself and do SS for my own clients or I go into law offices to handle specific cases and they just pay me for that time I put in.

I completely understand wanting desperately to work and getting shot down everywhere you go!

[Valasca]

Oy, vey.
Do I really need to clarify? Obviously. There are not jobs that I qualify for... in North Florida.
