Wasn't her husband at the time this crime,occurred, head of finance for Mississippi development authority. Didn't that agency partially fund the company where she worked? where was the oversight for Mississippi development's funds?Shouldn't he have been watching it? How could he not know? Why was he moved out of his former position and promoted at that agency? There are a lot of questions. Where are the answers?

The stolen property was a car. She had several other pending charges against her in other jurisdictions such as shoplifting and contempt of court (Probably for failure to appear). She appeared with her lawyer. She was a hood rat of sorts. None of the beautiful people were there to testify on her behalf. No one from a church showed up to be for mercy for her. Just a garden variety petty criminal. Judge sentenced her to serve ten years in prison but suspended several years of the sentence. That was for a stolen car. It could've been worth only a few thousand dollars or it could've been a Benz. I can only imagine the comments that would've been made if I had covered her case. The victim probably got the car back. <br /><br /><br /> Ms. Klauser stole around $600,000 over three years. Tell me the difference between the two cases and why one should go to prison while the other one should go home?

The same message that we constantly bitch about the criminals in Hinds County with the sentences the thugs here receive for theft, killing and all in-between. Not sentencing her to a reasonable prison term tells all those working for government (yes, Innovate MS is a government funded entity, despite their denials) that they can steal all they want, live a good life, and not worry about being sent up river.<br /><br />Thanks Mr. Taggart, but next time keep a better eye on your employee rather than suggest that because her family and your family are friends they should be excused for this gross action.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-23264851411200130452017-08-30T22:29:42.730-05:002017-08-30T22:29:42.730-05:00She should have thought bigger.
