Woman Abandons Infant Child With LP While Escaping

Akisha Hempfield was sentenced to 3 years in jail and 3 years probation on Tuesday. Hempfield is a convicted shoplifter who, while trying to escape police, abondoned her infant child with loss prevention. She then tried to carjack an 82 year old lady, who fought her off until a bystander stepped in to assist the elderly heroine.
Hempfield, who has 3 prior shoplifting convictions, was apprehended by police in the parking lot a short time later.
Here we have yet another example of parenting genius. Not only did Hempfield make the decision to take her infant with her on her shoplifting excursion, but she also made the decision to abandon the child with strangers in order to save her own skin.
To make matters worse, she then victimized an elderly lady in attempting to steal a car so she could escape. Then, we find out that this is not her first, but fourth, documented arrest for shoplifting. I say she earned every minute of that 3 year sentence.
