A woman filmed licking a tub of ice cream and returning it to a grocery store shelf in a viral video last week is facing up to 20 years in prison, police said Thursday.
The footage — which has been viewed more than 11 million times — shows the so-far unnamed woman opening a container, running her tongue across the ice cream then laughing as she places the violated dessert back in the freezer, in a branch of Walmart in the city of Lufkin, eastern Texas.
Police said on Wednesday they believed they had identified the suspect after "detectives had obtained surveillance video placing a woman matching the suspect description in the Lufkin store on June 28 around 11 p.m." They are waiting to finally verify her identity before issuing an arrest warrant.
Police also want to speak to the man she was with, who is thought to have filmed the incident and can be heard encouraging the woman to “lick it, lick it.”
She could face a second-degree felony charge of tampering with a consumer product, the Lufkin police department said in an email statement to NBC News. The charge comes with a two- to 20-year prison term and up to $10,000 in fines, according to Texas state penal code.
Investigators are also in discussions with the FDA and additional federal charges could be made.
20 years in prison seems disproportionate.
Murderers get less.
Lesbian its ok heterosexual no forbidden
Good God, nobody is doing 20 years for that, disgusting as it may be.
Then murderers should get more.
Lesson learned. If you are going to lick out of the ice cream tub and put it back on the shelf, be sure to murder the clerk on the way out. That way the penalty won’t be so severe.
I agree.
She will get a pussy pass.
It’s trending now. There’s several videos in Twitter of various young copycats doing the same thing.
No, it doesn’t. There are more crazy people out there tampering with our food in restaurants, stores, bars, you name it. It’ll send a message these freaks won’t forget.
Should be readily identifiable.
Get help.
A few years ago, Ariana Grande did something like this with bakery goods in a bake shop along with making anti-American remarks IIRC and nothing happened to her.
She will and you know it.
Deal with reality.
She belongs to the race of professional victims. She will get a pass or maybe a slap on the hands.
I assumed she would get the same Sentence as Ariana Grande did for licking some Donuts and putting them back on the Tray.
I just can’t remember what that Sentence was? Hmmmmmmm…
In my best Ben Stein voice, Smollett, Smollett?
Another sign of the breakdown in society. Certain things we take for granted, such as our own mail in our own mailbox, not tampering with food in the stores, etc. are marks of a civilized society. We are overrun with uncouth barbarians.
...but nothing for Antifa thugs.

But democrats/antifa who damn near kill people with deadly weapons get probation only-
In the picture, she looks like an Illegal.
