The two women who are accused of stealing from open houses are looking for deals from the prosecutors.
Previously, one of their lawyers had said they would be pleading not guilty, but half of the "Thelma & Louise" pair (they would both go to open houses, and one would distract the agent while the other stole items) Jennifer Jones is "going to plead guilty to a felony and misdemeanor in a no-jail deal," per the Daily News. The other half, Jessica Joyner, is expected to work out a plea deal as well.
Jones' lawyer Jeremy Saland added that the misdemeanor can be dropped from her record "if she stays out of trouble for a year." He told the Post, "We provided very compelling reasons, and we worked tirelessly so the prosecution could see that this is not a black-and-white case." And the pair are also working on restitution.
The pair have been described as being belligerent, polite and hard-edged. They are also accused of stealing $75,000 worth of goods from an open house in NJ.

I guess it pays to be a white woman
Yeah, must be nice. $75,000 is definitely grand larceny, but no jail time here. That's what I call a sweetheart deal.

there are plenty of black women and men who have more extreme felony records such as violent crimes and even murder running around on the streets today because of our lax legal system. this has nothing to do with white/black, i blame the legal system.
I compare it to foxy brown going to jail. Why does she go to jail but these biddies don't?
Didn't one of them shit all over the place in the bathroom too? I'm sure I remember hearing that.
What the fuck are you going to steal at an open house in New Jersey that's worth $75,000? Did they shove a Roche Bobois living room up their crack?
You steal 75K worth of shit and are black, you're sitting in Sing Sing for the next 5 years..at the very least.
Love our legal system.
