The Unexpected Cost of a Self-Checkout Mistake

This is ridiculous y'all .

A former Olympic athlete and you know I'm all about bringing you the ridiculous right A former Olympic athlete's life has been a living nightmare since , she says , she accidentally failed to scan two items at a self-checkout machine , leading to her arrest and loss of her prestigious job at as an NCAA division one softball coach , megan Pettibus okay , first of all , she

spells her name with two g's m-e-a-g-g-a-n . All right , whatever . Megan Megan Pettibus she's 48 was the head coach of the Valparaiso University softball team when she was scanning her groceries at a Walmart self-checkout machine in Indiana on March 28th .

According to the National Post , the machine reportedly did not scan the asparagus and ham pedigree meant to purchase . Now this , apparently this , uh , ham and asparagus cost 67 dollars . What kind of asparagus is she buying now ? I know groceries are high , but the asparagus and ham was $67? .

What in the tarnation , prompting them to call police , despite her having paid $176 for her other groceries . So she paid for her other groceries , I don't know how . Oh , I guess probably the asparagus may needed to be weighed . I'm not sure . That's why I don't buy my groceries at Walmart and certainly don't do a self-checkout with all those groceries .

No , I'm having somebody else do that . Okay , that's what they get paid for . I shop at Publix . Well , I mean , my husband does the shopping . He does all the grocery shopping like I'm talking about , like I shop , okay , so she paid 176 for her other groceries . Somehow the asparagus and ham , which were $67 , were left off .

I guess she wanted to steal the asparagus and ham . I don't know , not really . I mean , accidents happen , right . Petipus , who said she didn't realize the machine , did not read the items , was arrested . During her arrest police found okay , there's more .

During her arrest police found she had three disposable vapes and two unopened blister packs I don't know what blister packs are Containing the anti-nausea medication Zofran in her purse . All right , is that a crime ? I mean , is that a crime ? I don't know . I don't know what blister packs are , but apparently they're for nausea .

The former softball player who played outfield for the Canadian national team . Well , there you go , she's . Canadian Team in the 2000s . She gets what she deserves , right ? Oh , my gosh , stop saying right .

Carol Alright team in the 2000-2004 Olympic Games was charged with theft , possession of marijuana I guess the blister packs are marijuana , I don't know , I'm not up on this vaping stuff and possession of a controlled substance . The outlet reported substance at .

The outlet reported Pettibus resigned as head coach for the Valparaiso softball team on April 1st following a firestorm of headlines that swept through the Hoosier state . After her arrest , the Ontario native said the vapes did not contain nicotine or THC . Nicotine's not an illegal substance . So whatever .

The anti-nausea pills belonged to an assistant coach who asked pedophiles to hold them in her purse during a softball game days before she was arrested . Okay , but I don't know if the nausea medication is illegal either . I mean , come on , it's anti-nausea medication . I don't think that would be a narcotic . We both forgot about them .

The former All-American softball player told the outlet Earlier this month Pettibus' attorney submitted an application for dismissal that included her account of the incident , proof of her assistance prescription and character reference letters .

According to the outlet , eventually they did dismiss all of the charges , but this still follows her everywhere and she is can't I guess can't get it . She's lost her career . I lost my job , the life I was building , and it's been really difficult , petipa said .

Along with her career derailment , the California University of Pennsylvania alumni expressed that the damage to her reputation has been equally heartbreaking . The softball community is a tight-knit group and it the news went through like wildfire . You really do learn who people are that really believe in you and trust you and are truly a friend for you .

Pedipa said yeah , I guess so . So she's staying home , she's concentrating on her kids . I hope she can able to rebound from this . I'm sure she will . What gets me , though , is that they arrested her for 67 dollars worth of asparagus and ham not being scanned at the machine . Meanwhile , you see all of these groups thugs . Yes , I said thugs .

I don't care who they are antifa , whatever , I don't know who they're associated with , but they're thugs because they're out there storming targets . Uh , the department stores target walmart . You know , I don't think anybody's ever swarmed a walmart , have they ? It's all been Target shopping complexes , haven't they ?

Going through there , damaging everything , stealing everything they can and getting away with it the Walgreens , cvss , whatever . You see all of these swarms of people invading and crashing into these stores and taking everything they want and leaving , and nobody arrests them . What about them ? No , by golly .

We got a head coach here who stole $67 worth of asparagus and ham . We got to arrest her . Whatever these people , all right , we are going to go on to this next story . This is so bizarre . It's from the New York Post . This guy is so brazen . All right , here we go . I cannot believe that this idiot he's not even .

He's worse than a way , worse than an idiot . He is evil . Okay , let's read the headline . Youth basketball coach busted for molestation . Offered parents 5 000 for their kids . What , really , really , really , really , dude ? A sick Florida youth basketball coach was charged with molesting several kids during a disturbing sleepover .

Okay , why are you letting your child sleep over at a grown man's house ? No , and offered to buy them from their parents for $5,000 , according to the report . So he invited this basketball team to stay over at his house and then offered the parents $5,000 to buy their children . What , what ? Oh my gosh .

Carl Lombardo , 58 years old , who coached children at an Ocala Boys and Girls Club , allegedly molested several young boys at his home last month and then refused to return one 15-year-old youngster to his parents .

According to a report Monday by the news , the creep even videotaped the boy as he wrote a note to his parents saying he wanted to stay at the coach's house A note cops said the boy was forced to write .

The outlet said the accused child molester even offered to buy the children , telling the parents they were free to call the cops because he had a spotless reputation and worked with local schools . What in the tarnation ? And to look at this guy . You can see it all over him . Look , I can spot him . I know , trust me , but when ?

Excuse me , but when deputies from the marion county sheriff's office moved in and returned the kids to their homes on August 31st , the youngsters allegedly told them that Lombardo touched them inappropriately and took nude pictures , prompting the department to launch an investigation . They later found child porn images on his cell phone .

The outlet said Last week Lombardo was charged with nine accounts , including possession of child porn , molestation of children under the age of 16 , and human trafficking . Meanwhile Lombardo's neighbors told WCJB they always suspected there was something off about him . You could feel the vibe off him . Neighbor Vanessa Velez told the station .

My husband from day one said he seems like a creep . Lombardo is being held without bail . Good being held with that . But trust me , when I say this , I understand you . Look what do I say about Tim Walls gives off the creep vibes , if you know what I'm saying . Okay , we're gonna move on to this last one . This last one is also freaking bizarre .

I don't get it . This is actually from the Blaze . And if I can get rid of all the damn advertisements , here we go . High school officials banned parents for wearing pink wristbands with double X's . You know the chromosome . After biological mail allowed on girls' soccer team . Okay , here we go . This is so . Oh , this enrages me so much .

Parents showing support for female athletes were banned from school events for wearing pink wristbands with XX written on them in Bow , new Hampshire . Really , you're banning parents for wearing certain attire pink wristbands that have the double X on them . You're banning parents for that . This is outrageous . You're banning parents for that . This is outrageous . This .

I would go to the cops and say look , they cannot ban me for wearing this . What is offensive about that ? This is so appalling . I cannot believe this is not making more national news . This school should be shamed , publicly shamed , called out . This is horrible .

Parents of students at Bow High School complained to the school's athletic director after they were told their girls' soccer team would play against an opponent with a biological male on its team . Play against an opponent with a biological male on its team . Officials told the parents nothing could be done to prevent it because of a ruling by a federal judge .

Now some people will say pull your girls out and don't let them play . I'll agree with that , but who's being punished by doing that ? The girls are All right . My daughter's playing in the homecoming game this weekend and I'm banned until the 23rd .

Some of the parents decided to show their support for the biological females by wearing pink wristbands with XX on them . To the game between Bow High School and Plymouth Regional High School , school officials responded by stopping the game , demanding the parents take off the wristbands and having police issue no trespass orders against the parents .

This should anger every single person in America that has common sense . Come on , really , this is where we are . This is where we are now . I want to compare it to something , but I can't . I can't . Anthony Foote sent one of the orders to the New Hampshire Journal , who documented the overreaction from officials .

My daughter's already read that the order said he was banned from all school property , including athletic events on or off school grounds , because the wristbands were against school policy . Really , show me , show me where in the policy I cannot wear a specific item that's pink and has double x's on it . No sir , no sir , you're letting me in that game .

The district . Or just take girls off the team . But again , who's being punished ? The girls are . We are at it , we are at it . I just , we are losing this . We are losing this fight . We are losing this trans cult fight , y'all . Nobody is speaking up , Nobody's doing anything . Now they're banning parents from wearing pink wristbands with double X's on them .

What the hell ? I don't even know what to say . I don't even know what to say over this . I mean , seriously , what do you do ? I want to know what do you do ? I don't even know . Somebody help me out here , because I'm at a loss . I've got nothing . Where , where are our ? Where are the parents ?

I mean , that was that was their way of protesting by wearing pink wristbands with double X's on them . I think I would do a little bit more than that . But to wear that into a game and then the officials ban the parents from the game for wearing a pink wristband with double X's on . Again , I'm at a loss .

Pull your daughters out , but then again , like I said , who's being punished ? The girls are . That's what ? Probably what they want you to do , because they don't want girls playing sports anymore . Okay , I gotta move on . We gotta have the question of the day .

Okay , this really isn't a question of the day , but I know some of you like to quote me , and I love it . Trust me , I do . I love every second of it . It makes me giggle . You guys crack me up the quotes that you pull , and when I read it , I just crack up . I really do so .
