Woman Caught On Tape Beating Her Kids

Scumbags... So, my theory that there are 2 extremes of any nationality is now holding down like cement. The 'good' Irish people are the ones who fought nobly for their independence, and who were the factory workers and potato farmers of the 19th century. Honest, hardworking, verbally salty and somewhat drunk on the hot stuff, but good folks nonetheless. Then, we get scumbags like these. Left for the states cuz they were too lazy, and thought 'opportunity' meant 'free ride.' The thought that THAT is coursing through my vains as well makes me moderately unsettled. Still, a retarded B**** like that shouldn't have kids.

They're a very close group (no outsiders allowed!), mostly based out of South Carolina, that are famous with law enforcement nationwide for scamming people. They move into an area, run a few cons, then leave town quick. Phoney home repair is most common. Things like convincing people they need their driveway painted with a protective sealent (actually a good idea!) except they just cover the drive with old motor oil. It looks like it's been sealed, at least until the next hard rain washes the oil away. Or they take a big down payment on home repair & just never come back. They're also known for shoplifting & then returning the merchandise for a refund, which makes me wonder about the mall incident.

They're raised from early childhood to believe cheating people is normal:

"The prosecutor in the Philadelphia case said Toogood basically admitted that these 'scams' were how he made money and were a way of life among his relatives.... [Toogood] also said 'It's not right that a lot of people make a lot more money. All the men in my family do this' "

Latest news -- the home address she gave police is a drycleaner in a strip mall in Wisconsin. Her husband put that on his driver's license also. These people are as crooked as a dog's hind leg...
