I am glad resitution was made in this case. It doesn't make her any less responsible, but it's the right thing to do every time.
I hope the 90-year-old relative didn't also get stuck in guardianship as a result of this theft. If so, then Shearer didn't pay back the victim; she fed the guardian.
The weirdo stole the money to pay for her breast implants and a tummy tuck!
