A pro-Trump Republican candidate for Congress who is aiming to unseat Ilhan Omar in Minnesota has been charged with a felony after allegedly stealing from stores.
She has in the past complained that local police were “overworked and overburdened” and said that, if elected, she would work to reduce crime.
She is charged with felony theft over the incident at Target and faces a punishment of up to five years in prison and a fine of $10,000 if convicted, according to court filings.
Stella laughed and nodded as the host, J Owen Shroyer, called Omar “a witch” and said: “Everything about her is a fraud.”.
She has accused Omar of being a criminal for advising immigrants how to avoid agents from US Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
Court records say that in 2009, Stella pleaded guilty to driving while impaired from alcohol and fleeing a police officer.
The latter charge was prosecuted as a felony but later classified as a gross misdemeanour as part of Stella’s plea. »
