KANSAS CITY, Mo. (WKRC) - After a woman was sentenced to nine years in prison for stealing $1.5 million worth of chicken wings from the school she worked at, a NFL player offered to buy her freedom.
Vera Liddell, 68, was arrested for stealing $1.5 million worth of food from take-home meals for students over the COVID 19 pandemic. Attorneys said she operated from July of 2020 through February of 2022.

Was she running a restaurant on the side?
I read in another article that she had a gambling problem. So, it looks like she sold them to various restaurants at a discount and used the funds to gamble.
I don’t know but it must be nice to have that cash available to correct someone else’s decision.
And notice he used his money NOT to benefit children who go home to empty cupboards to to free a low count, human garbage gambling THIEF.
He is as disgusting as she is.
It seems like there are a lot more deserving individuals for $1.5 million than a 68-year-old with a gambling addiction.
Just think, if she had just killed someone she would have only recieved a year of probation...
Nine years for chicken wings is ridiculous...
He can pay her debt, fine.
She still committed a crime and has a sentence to serve.
It’s like the Brooklyn 99 episode Hitchcock and scully circa 1985
THAT’ll teach her.

What would a suitable punishment be if she’d robbed a bank or embezzling $1.5 million instead?
The wrinkle I’d put in the script would be that she would place his bets for him.
9-years for “robbing” a bank
3 years for “embezzling”
IMHO...
One point five million worth of food??? These days, that’s like, what, four grocery bags?
Rotten culture
I don’t know but it must be nice to have that cash available to correct someone else’s decision.
A free agent following the 2023 season, Jones signed a five-year, $158.75 million deal to return to the Chiefs on March 11, 2024. The contract contains $101 million in guarantees and makes him the highest-paid defensive tackle in NFL history in average annual value.[61] (Wiki)
It is less than 3 weeks gross pay from his five-year contract
In fairness, the school district will be the one that benefits from the 1.5 million. The thief will be free to screw up her life sooner.
Or buying two houses, one for a woman who hates you and one for her lawyer.
