Guilty

Crime: First-degree candy theft and betrayal of household trust.

Sentence: 5 minutes of shame, mandatory cuddles, and a lifetime ban on unsupervised candy access.

Aggravating factor: She's eight years old and should know better by now.

Mitigating factor: She's adorable, looks genuinely sorry, and we love her too much to stay mad.

Verdict: Guilty, but unfortunately too cute to prosecute. Case dismissed. 🐾🍬

Guilty and apologetic after stealing candy while leaving her alone to rest while we went to the grocery store after hunting. Can’t stay mad at her for long though, although you’d expect her to have matured from stealing, since she’s 8 human years old. But I guess they just like us, never grow out of their sweet tooth.
