Coronavirus: Woman charged with contaminating $35K worth of food at Pennsylvania grocery storeThis discussion thread was locked as off-topic by Omaha Steve (a host of the General Discussion forum). Margaret Ann Cirko, 35, of Hanover Township, is charged with two counts of making a terroristic threat, one count of threatening to use a “biological agent” and one count of criminal mischief. All are felonies, according to the Hanover Township Police Department. ... “Police were called to the business after Cirko entered the store making verbal threats that she was sick while intentionally coughing and spitting saliva/bile on produce/meat/merchandise,” a news release from the Hanover Township Police Department said. “Cirko continued this behavior in several aisles before attempting to steal a 12-pack of beer as she was being ordered to leave the store by employees.” https://www.fox13memphis.com/news/trending/coronavirus-woman-charged-with-contaminating-35k-worth-food-pennsylvania-grocery-store/GHN6VBJ24NEJPN4WZY5FP7FSAM/ Unbelievable!!!!! Everyday, a new story about someone spitting, coughing, threatening to kill...those who are working in order to provide the services that are essential. ![]()

15. In cases where self-harm or harm to others is likely, there are protocols for garments. Looks like
this person received or is about to receive some kind of evaluation or is maybe post evaluation and enroute to the next stop. Just guessing but seems likely.
Her public display may have made the precautions sop. |

9. That was so fucking dumb that I can't believe that it wasn't a white male who did it
When this happened, I recall that the produce manager was "heartbroken" over the wasted food, since people were having trouble getting enough at that time, and then this asshole contaminates a ton of it.
Throw her in a detention camp until the pandemic has passed, with the same access to food, water, bathrooms, and medical care that we generously grant to Trump's victims at the border. |

14. C'mon folks. The lady is mentally ill.
She's going to jail or a mental hospital where I hope she gets the treatment she needs.
And as noted upthread, this story is > 2 months old. |

16. Yes. It can be a revolving door in mental health facilities. Sometimes simply medication related.

17. There are thousands of mentally sick people walking among us....
I used to take my third graders on a walking field trip to the downtown Portland area. I always had to warn them and the chaperones not to mix with many of the street people.... and there were many Street people. Often they would be talking to themselves, digging through trash cans looking for food or bottles and cans to return for a deposit. Most of them meant no harm, but to innocent third graders, it could be a problem.
Since the days of Ronald Reagan we have opened up the doors and cut off Aid for those struggling with mental illness. Thousands roam the streets and sleep under bridges or in warm corners of a building. Downtown Portland, and in fact the whole city of Portland, has thousands of mentally ill and drug-addicted living out in the open. Hundred stand alongside off ramps and Panhandle for survival. I'm just saying that a lot of these videos of very irrational adults could very well be related to mental illness. We never know when viewing a video. This is the world the Republicans brought us. Cut services and just throw them out on the street. |

19. The report and the event were 2 months ago!!! She's been in jail since then!!!
The Re-open-or-else-crowd no doubt idolized her but this post is not about a current event.
If we are going to be Reality Based in our forum it helps to maintain a grip on the PRESENT, no? |

26. And the sick thing is that there will always be mentally challenged individuals who will do this
This and other individual awful actions like mass shooting.
What is worse is that Trump is increasing the amount of these people that would feel justified. To push them over the line to where they actually do it. ![]() |

The event happened two months ago. That should have been mentioned. It was misleading. We got several complaints.
