Sarah Palin's Sister-in-Law Arrested for Burglary

Sarah Palin's Sister-in-Law Arrested for Burglary

Saturday April 04, 2009

Smoke has yet to settle from the feud between Levi Johnston - the former fiancé of Bristol Palin, who will appear on The Tyra Banks Show April 6 to discuss his sex life with the Alaska governor's 18-year-old daughter - and Sarah Palin, who issued a blistering statement <http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20270152,00.html> condemning Johnston's decision to talk dirty on TV. (Johnston, 18, and Bristol Palin welcomed son Tripp last December and split earlier this year.)

And now comes a new source of embarrassment for the former GOP vice-presidential contender: police in Sarah Palin's hometown of Wasilla have arrested the half-sister of her husband, Todd, for allegedly breaking into a house in a robbery attempt.

According to the Anchorage Daily News <http://www.adn.com/front/story/747508.html>, police say Diana Palin, 35, entered the home Thursday morning and made straight for a bedroom cabinet where cash was stowed. The house had already been burgled twice in recent weeks. This time the owner, carrying a gun, was waiting in a bathroom after seeing an unfamiliar car pull up outside.

The owner, Theodore Turcott, reportedly confronted the intruder and detained her until police arrived.

Diana Palin was taken into custody on felony burglary charges relating to two break-ins at the Turcott house. A spokeswoman for Gov. Palin declined the newspaper's request for comment.

Re: Sarah Palin's Sister-in-Law Arrested for Burglary

Thats nothing. Last weekend Palin's lawyer's former conjoined-twin tried to sexually assault a horse with a cucumber covered in axe body spray. Palin should be embarrassed at the actions of people distantly related to her that she has absolutely no control over in any way. Thankfully the I know media will cover this important issue as opposed to less vital stuff like the continuing destruction of the world economy.

Well I for one will not vote for Sarah Palin now. I mean it's over as far as I'm concerned. Her sister-in-law is a thief, and that makes Sarah Palin a thief.

Re: Sarah Palin's Sister-in-Law Arrested for Burglary

Can we replace this story with something more topical like the feud between Lindsay Lohan and Nicole Ritchie? Now that's some serious smack.

Re: Sarah Palin's Sister-in-Law Arrested for Burglary

I kinda feel bad for Mrs. Palin. I don't agree with much of her politics and she does have some skeletons in her closet, but I know that negative publicity about her family really bothers her. It comes with the territory I guess. Hang in there, Momma Bear.

I don't. Her family harassed her former brother-in-law, she paraded her family in front of everyone during the election, and she has kept herself in the spotlight since.

What about the story between the Palins and Levi Johnston's family?

As you can see, no one has taken a genuine interest in this thread.

I used to like Lindsay Lohan, but she has really shown some bad judgment over the last few years. I don't feel sorry that she has been unable to find work. Live off the millions you have already made.

Other politicians don't usually campaign with family members?
