bai ling charged with petty theft

As you may remember, a few weeks ago, it was reported that everybody's favorite weirdo Bai Ling was arrested for shoplifting at Los Angeles International Airport. You still woman. She apparently tried to steal $16.22 worth of magazines and batteries. Times are rough, I guess. She was charged with petty theft on Monday, and now faces a $250 fine: Bai Ling Charged With Petty Theft. You mean you can't lock her up? It seems there is no jail time associated with attempting to steal sixteen bucks worth of merchandise. Damn.
