If this person or gambler could do this kind of thing just to feed his addiction, then I think this person really needs some help because she is ready to commit a crime just because she can't control herself from doing gambling and not just committing a crime. The crime is so big that it could put her in jail for a long time. Well, it's her fault if she is fined or locked in jail; she deserves it. She should know her action before doing anything like that. This story is common, and many gamblers are also committing such crimes. To steal money from someone, I manage to know the feeling of not being able to control myself because I also experience being addicted to gambling, but thankfully I manage to change before it's too late. So gamblers out there, you already know that you are being too addicted to gambling then dont make anymore crime that could mess your life more.
