She was probably trying to save up money to go to the U of C.

Driving a PT Cruiser should be reason enough alone to have her arrested.

More than likely, with the cost of post secondary education being so high these days, she probably needed the money to pay off the thousands of $$ she has in student loans.

Mount Royal University political science professor David Taras had met Melnyk and was shocked by the news of the charges.
“I can’t imagine a situation like this ever happening in a Canadian university,” he said.

David, that's because MRC is not a real University!

Having "Bank Robber" is good, right? Shows initiative.

Geez that video of her is pretty bad. She doesn't strike me as the leadership type.

This news is so unreal, it almost sounds like a hoax. Who robs banks these days?
