Last month while accompanying her father, a disabled vet, to the VA Medical Center in Boise, Natalie Walters bought a soda from the cafeteria. After finishing her drink, she refilled her mug and went to pay.
The cafeteria has no set cost for refills, but usually charged her $1 or $1.50. This time, however, the clerk charged her $3.80. Walters was none too thrilled about the refill markup. After asking to see a manager and trying to return the soda, she refused to pay and proceeded to pour it over the counter.
We've all thrown tantrums like that, and no harm done, right? The U.S. Attorney's office thinks otherwise. Walters has been slapped with federal charges of larceny and disturbance, each of which could net her six months in the clink.
We generally don't advise crying over split soda, but in this case, it might be the only viable solution.

I'm sure that the larceny charges will be dropped, but she went to a hospital with injured vets and grieving families and made a stink over nothing. Her ass should be charged with disturbance.
Mental Health Dept or Social Service issue for sure, and I do not agree with all that went down especially over a fuckin soda.
