henson Police arrested a woman yesterday during  "Shop With A Cop" at the Wal-Mart in Manchester, Kentucky. Before we go any further, I would like to point out that "Shop With A Cop" is an event where cops, as in police officers, go to Wal-Mart with underprivileged children to shop for Christmas presents for their family members and friends. That means the Wal-Mart was full of cops. And it was a charity event. A charity event that was full of cops. Back to the story... Samantha Henson, the woman pictured above, thought this would be the ideal time to shoplift -- when in reality, it was arguably the worst time to shoplift. Henson was attending the event with her son, who was likely shopping for his mother, when she was busted for stealing jewelry. Security personnel at the Wal-Mart noticed Henson concealing the items under her clothing so they alerted police, the same police that were all over the store doing good deeds during the holiday season.
