Woman says she 'snapped' during stickup with her finger (mcall.com)
the rest at link aboveDesperate due to a lost job, a 52-year-old woman with no criminal record held up a Walnutport Dollar General store with her finger.
"This is a stickup, give me all the money," Laura L. Pastor of Palmerton told the clerk, after placing her finger into her jacket pocket to make it look like she was armed. "I'm not kidding, give me all the money or someone is going to get hurt."
"It sounds like a Woody Allen movie," Northampton County President Judge F.P. Kimberly McFadden quipped Thursday.
"I just snapped," Pastor said. "I was under a lot of pressure. This is not my style." Pastor got away with $148 after the Sept. 25 holdup.

McFadden will decide Pastor's punishment on March 8, and ordered her to undergo a psychological examination beforehand.
"I don't think that would be a bad idea," Goodrich agreed.
