| 558438 | 2007-06-12 16:06:00 | MARSHALLTOWN, Iowa Police blame a woman surnamed Butts for stealing toilet paper from an Iowa courthouse, and while they are chuckling, the theft charge could land her in jail. "She's facing potentially three years of incarceration for three rolls of toilet paper," Chief Lon Walker said, stifling a laugh as he talked to KCCI-TV about Suzanne Marie Butts. Workers at the Marshall County Courthouse had noticed toilet paper rolls were disappearing much faster than usual, Walker said. Butts, 38, was caught last week after an employee saw her taking three rolls of two-ply tissue from a storage closet, Walker said. Click here for FOXNews.com's Crime center (www.foxnews.com). Butts insisted it was the first time she had pilfered toilet paper, but she declined to answer further questions on her attorney's advice. The fifth-degree theft charge, a misdemeanor, normally carries a sentence of less than a year in jail. Butts could face more time than that though if convicted under the state's habitual offender law because she has prior theft convictions. |
