Is Winona Guilty? - Page 2 - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Blair85 · 11-05-2002, 11:43 PM

I guess she's guilty. I don't know & I don't really care. I'm pretty sick of hearing about it though. It seems to me that the media has been harping on Winona forever, and other celebrities that have done something "bad" weren't given as much attention as her. The way she was brought up may have made her a little crazy. Did anybody watch her E! True Hollywood story? I'm not saying that growing up in a weird family makes somebody steal b/c there's no excuse for something like that unless she klepto. I think it's sad b/c I like Winona and if she can get by w/ it (which I don't think she will) good for her.

I just heard that....Well at least she doesn't have to go to jail....I still dont think she did it.

You know, they might have found her guilty but what about jail time? Let's just say she really did do it. She does some community service and stuff like that, but no jail time. Isn't that kind of unfair? I bet if they caught me shoplifting they would throw me in the tank for a few years. The same prob. goes with any normal person. Celebs are people too and I say if they commit a crime they should do some time too. jmo

yeah, they could have put her in jail for up to 3 years, but she just has to do community service and refund the money...

I thought she was innocent. My vote would go undecided because well, theres alot of evidence against her, if she had the right defense,she probably would've gotten by. and i think u should really look into the case before u start saying things. I believe she was treated unfairly. In most grand theft cases, you get the plead bargin and it would be charged as a mismeandor, but because she was a celebrity they wanted to prove that they dont go easy on celebrities. I watched this case for days now and if i were a jurior i would've said she was innocent because i cant decide if shes guiltly or not, so i would've just said she was innocent because if she was innocent, i wouldnt wanna put her in jail for something that is a mistake. She was harassed because she was a celebrity and treated differently-whether she did it or not, she shouldn't have to go thru that.
