Hmm, so much idiocy to choose from. But one person that I know comes to mind. My family is comprised mostly of honest hardworking Canadians, with many relatives in the US as well. But one of my nieces years ago got herself hooked up with a crackhead boyfriend, got herself hooked as well, and decided it was a good idea to break into the homes of her family members and steal stuff.
Not only did she sell all her kids' toys and stuff for drug money, but she and her idiot BF broke into my sister's house (her auntie) and stole some electronics and such, as well as a checkbook. Now here's the stupidest part of all... She filled in several of the checks, lamely attempted to forge the signature, and made them out to cash, then was seen on MoneyMart surveilance cameras trying to cash them.
She was caught, charged, and later when she was due to be sentenced (her idiot boyfriend had long since bailed on her) (because he's an idiot) she decided to cut and run, thus she fled the province and ran to Alberta to save her own skin, leaving 3 small children here to fend for themselves. Of course the two older ones of her kids had long been abused sexually by the parade of idiot boyfriends she's had over the years. She now has four kids total and no two of them has the same father.
It's the kind of stuff Sally Jesse Rafael and Jerry Springer made fortunes on.
The only ray of silver lining here is that the 3 kids she abandoned were taken in my her brother (my nephew) and his wife, and they've raised them as their own for the past 10 years now. He's one of the unsung heroes of the world in my book.
