There was a woman panhandling in my neighborhood with two very depressed looking and dirty children. She had a sign..."Please help feed my starving children". She made good money.
She was arrested and the children were taken into custody by Child Protection Services (CPS).
The children were not hers and were "rented" from her neighbor. The neighbor was a crack addict. Needed the money and the time. They commuted to my neighborhood from Oakland.
The people in my neighborhood felt so good giving to such a worthy cause.
Story was written up in my neighborhood newspaper.
