Nope, I gotta disagree ... too many times the family enjoys the ill-gotten gains but receives no punishment. I think the family enjoyed the extra income so the punishment is very fitting. The next time mom goes to commit a crime, the family will drop a dime on her to save the seats.
I really want to know more about the details.
Are these the type of season seats where you can simply buy the next set the following year? or are they a one shot deal.
I think I would feel less suspicious of a judge taking property IF he could tie the 3k directly to the seat tickets.
My concerns may be a bit essoteric, but I think trial court judges have a piss poor record of logic of late.
"too many times the family enjoys the ill-gotten gains but receives no punishment."
Just because someone may have benefited indirectly from a crime does not mean they should be held into account for the crime ( if in fact they had nothing to do with the crime ).
This is basically the same argument being used for slavery reparations.

Yep! Sure sounds like perhaps the tickets came from her ill gotten gain. What else would explain this bizarre sentence?
Could just be a bizarre judge too. It aint like we don't have a few, running and screaming thru the halls, is it?
We don't know for what specific use she took the money. Maybe, she wanted reimbursement for her union dues that the union stold from her paycheck without her assent. Who knows.
Sure would like more details on this matter. Seems to me the judge should not punish the family for a family members crime. They could all be innocent and unknowing. I think it is too much retaliation.
But, you do have a good point about 'dropping a dime on her to save the seats.'
