this poor little guy, shorter than me, he had gone over to the kmart on piedmont avenue. >> yes. >> andhe spoke about it and then he walked around and he folded it up and then he went all the way to the front and then left it. well, the security guard could not wait and so we had to talk about this. [laughter] and i had to tell the jury, what do you think? and of course not, but of course he was trying to shoplift. i beg those people to do straight probation. they would not do it. the guy had so many drug arrests. and it had to go to trial. and that was the day that the air conditioning went out in the county courthouse. i had on a blue suit and a shirt up to here and my hair up right here and by the time it was over my hair was over here and i my shirt was on talked and i had all of this eyeliner and mascara and i thought oh, i'm going to pass out. [laughter] and that is the first time that i knew that that was where i was supposed to be. >> the way that you always keep family first, it is what led to her decision to depart and take off in other directions and we will talk about them a

once in a while but when i tried that case this poor little guy had gone through the kmart on piedmonte cut a cd player display off and stuck it in the crotch of his pants and folded up in a rug and went all the way to the front to take it out and left it. the security guards couldn't wait to drag him back in and arrest him so that was my first case was something where nothing was taken. attempted shoplifting. of course he was trying to shoplift so i got my first conviction on attempted shoplifting. but it had to go to trial. that was the day [inaudible] i thought i had to dress like a man back then. i had on a blue suit with a shirt up to here and my hair up. by the time it was over my shirt was off, my hair was up, my shirt was untucked and i had black eyeliner and mascara all over but got a conviction. that was when i knew that's where i was meant to be. >> one of the things i admire about you is the way you keep the family first. in fact it's what led your decision to depart hln and take off in other directions although we will talk about them a little bit i'm sure in the minutes a

but on the 23rd, i believe it was, i decided that i was going to go out to kmart and get a plastic christmasey have on display because you weren't allowed to have any christmas paraphernalia in the hospital that could catch fire. i was gone i guess an hour, an hour half. when i came back, both of my boys, for the first time, they were 3 and 4 years old, almost 4 and 5, they had smiles on their face. each of them were holding a football signed by the entire steel curtain, the pittsburgh team. i said, what happened, boys? first time they smiled. they said, rocky bleier and franco harris came because guess what happened? the rooney's, really fine, fine people, the rooney's decided that they were going to send rocky and franco to see my boys. no publicity. they didn't do any press. didn't let anybody know. they spent 45 minutes with my boys and they got in the lean and went home. that is who we are as a country. that something the president doesn't understand, looking out for each other. the thousand acts of kindness, the decency that people used to show to one another and still do that he just
