“ A mother was arrested after taking away her teenage daughter’s cell phone as punishment. Jodie May’s ex-husband claimed he owned the phone and filed charges against her. The daughter, in fact, owned the phone, so prosecutors dropped the charges. Mom would have faced up to 93 days in jail!
Jodie was at home breastfeeding her four-week-old baby when the police knocked on the door. Agents told her that they had an arrest warrant for her for a robbery. “He told me he was going to arrest me and I asked him if he could turn me in the following Monday because I had a new baby and he was not yet feeding,” the woman explained on Facebook when posting her own story.
However, the police ignored her and detained her. Jodie entered a cell and remained there for a few hours until she was released on $ 200 bail.
Her ex-husband denounced her after she took her daughter’s cell phone in common, claiming that the device, an iPhone, was in her name. For this crime the woman had to go to trial, although it is worth saying that the prosecutor was stunned to know why Jodie had stayed on the phone because no one had mentioned before that it was a method of punishment.
Fortunately, it was discovered that the mobile phone belonged to the girl and not to her father, so Jodie was released. However, it should be noted that the woman faced a sentence of 93 years in prison for this type of theft. Her story has gone viral on social networks and on YouTube we find videos with interviews in which Jodie still narrates with amazement everything that has happened to her.
“It was kind of ridiculous. I can not believe that I had to live this, that my daughter put me in this situation, but I am happy with the outcome, “said this mother.
