magnolia-noire: yeoldenews: Another repeat offender from the San Quentin photo sets, this extremely stylish woman served three separate terms for grand theft under three different names. A newspaper account of one of her arrests describes her as “dressed in black satin from top to bottom… with a big black Gainsborough hat with black ostrich feathers“ and that she “waltzed into jail”. Other newspaper accounts describe her as “saucy” and “bewitching”. Her last prison term was eight years for stealing a $400 (approx. $10,000 with inflation) diamond ring and then setting fire to the house she stole it from. -- source link
