A Kleptomaniac Shares Their Story
A kleptomaniac talks about their life and what turned them around:
"A tall, stoic-looking security guard dumps the contents of a blue knapsack onto a metal table. There are two textbooks, a handful of pens, a red bra, a knitted sweater, and a collection of keychains. All of the items, including the knapsack, are stolen.
Across the table sits 21-year-old Brittney Matheson*, staring wide-eyed at the items she has stolen.
Matheson, a psychology student at Ryerson University, is quiet while the security guard begins listing the consequences of having a criminal record. Among them being the most detrimental to Matheson’s plans of becoming an international photographer—she will no longer be able to leave the country.
After more than 20 minutes of scrutiny, the guard announces he will let Matheson off without notifying police, that she seems like a good kid and that his lenience is partially because it’s her first time stealing."
