Woman given 3-year prison term for food stamp application lie.
A Rankin County mother will serve more time in federal prison for lying on her food stamp application than a group of people recently sentenced in a multimillion-dollar mortgage fraud scheme.
…
[Judge] Wingate bypassed sentencing McLemore under federal guidelines that suggested she receive two to eight months in prison and would have made her eligible for probation. He instead sentenced her under a federal statute that carries a maximum five years in prison.
She received $4367 in benefits. She paid the money back, but she’s still going to fucking prison.
Yeah, she’s a liar and clearly has a drug problem, but three years in prison? For a 47 year-old non-violent offender? What the fuck is wrong with this country?
The rich and powerful get away with murder, while someone’s 47 year-old mom — who is so poor she needs food stamps — gets three years in prison for lying on an application. For food stamps. That she needs because she’s so poor.
This is happening in the richest country on the planet, by the way.

Easter Egg of the Day: Want to know why Community is getting canceled? Because it’s simply too amazing for this world.
You already know how chock-full of Easter Eggs it is, right? Well, someone found the best one yet.
It seems that the writers have been sneaking the word “Betelgeuse” into the script of a single episode each season.
Check out what happened when the word was uttered a third time during the show’s Halloween episode, “Horror Fiction in Seven Spooky Steps.” (Hint: Look behind Annie.)
Pure brilliance.

“I don’t think it requires us to go negative in the sense of us running a bunch of ads that are false, or character assassinations,” Obama said, as reported by Univision.”It will be based on facts.”
“We may just run clips of the Republican debates verbatim,” he added.
