Amy Schumer Arrested For Grand Larceny [but avoided jail because relative is U.S. Senator]

Amy Schumer‘s new movie Trainwreck draws heavily from her own life, but there’s one embarrassing incident that didn’t make it to the big screen: her arrest for grand larceny shoplifting!

Schumer has previously admitted that she had sticky fingers well into her adult years. “It was just all from, like, department stores,” she told Rolling Stone last year. “I guess the impressive part was that I would return it for cash, and the most that I’d ever made was probably around $1,000. But I did it a lot.”

When she was 21, however, her bad habit caught up to her, and she and sister Kim Schumer — who is now a writer on her show — were arrested during one foiled heist.

“We were arrested for grand larceny,” the Inside Amy Schumer star admitted, but her relationship with uncle Charles Schumer, a New York Senator, came in handy.

She said, “[The cops] were like, ‘You’re lucky you have this last name.’ And they pleaded it down, to like disturbing the peace or something.”

The case is so old that no publicly available records remain in New York, but Schumer, now 34, has said the incident almost torpedoed her chance at fame.

“I really thought that sh*t was off the record, until I was on Last Comic [Standing, in 2007] and they asked me if I had any arrests,” she told Laughspin in 2011, “and I was like, ‘Eh, not really.’ They have real lawyers … and they knew everything I’d stolen.”

A pic like this deserves a 24 hour ban, unless eye bleach accompanies it. Seriously, that’s nasty.

There's always the "abuse" button...

vladimir998 has previously admitted that he was trigger happy well into his adult years. “It was just all, like, unfunny comedians,” he told Rolling Stone last year. “I guess the impressive part was that I would shoot them in public and then sell video of it for cash, and the most that I’d ever made was probably around $1,000. But I did it a lot.”

I’m just saying. . .

Neither her or that Lena whatshername would ever have made anything in Hollywood if not for their connections.

I have to say, without sarcasm, I don’t understand the appeal of this person on any level.

No it didn’t. Ryder is on Stranger Things. It’s the best show right now on Netflix.

I am in total agreement.

The first time I saw her, I immediately thought she was related to Ben Rothlisberger, of Pittsburgh Steelers "fame", then I heard of her relationship to ChuckU Schumer and knew exactly how she got to be known in the business.

Loathsome woman, and I'm not necessarily talking about looks.

Have you heard her foul mouth?

Disgusting.

I was at Ross, a discount store and a young black man had a pile of clothes he was returning for a store credit gift card worth over $300. When he turned to leave, the clerk keyed her earpiece and gave a play by play as he left the store. He smiled at a black woman who smiled back and she left the store right after him. The clerk said people steal the stuff without security tags on them and return them for gift cards which they then sell for 50% off.

I was livid.

Didn’t Cher compose a song about Schumer? Went something like gypsies, tramps and thieves?”

More like ‘Gypsies, Chimpanzees...’

So, is this a confession?
Can she be prosecuted?
She really is a slovenly fat cow.
