Karyn Turk, a Florida pageant winner, was just sentenced to federal prison

Karyn Turk, a former Mrs. Florida pageant winner turned conservative commentator who is pictured here wearing a “Roger Stone Did Nothing Wrong” shirt, was just sentenced to federal prison for stealing social security checks from her elderly mother.

Karyn Turk, a former Mrs. Florida beauty pageant winner turned conservative commentator, was sentenced to a month in federal prison plus five months of house arrest Thursday after pleading guilty to social security fraud in September.

The charge stemmed from Turk pocketing her mother’s social security checks rather than sending the money to the nursing home in which her mother was receiving care for dementia. Turk’s mother died June 10.

She is a fine example of what the new conservative needs to live up to these days and real, family values like, well, they were MOM'S SS checks, so why not pocket them?
