In my estimation, he is a predator and I can't sympathize with him.

I think too many people in TV have been far too hateful, hurtful and heartless. Give these people a break. Their lives have been shattered. How can either put their best foot forward when their neighbors and our courts won't cut them some slack. Shame on us all.

The real embarrassment is how she is being treated by the legal system here.
Will one year in prison help solve any of her difficulties.
I can't see how anyone was harmed by her actions, except those who choose to think they were.

Unbelievable! Maybe she should move somewhere less expensive and get the help she needs and not solicit money from the area she shamed. This is being done on a website youcare.com where anyone can set up a fundraiser. There are a lot more deserving people who have come upon bad times living in the Ocala forest including veterans.

I agree with Abster and Zonerboy.
She certainly didn't shame me.
The 18 year-old man who injured a woman in the TJ Maxx parking lot is free on bond. He has an extensive criminal record.
Peggy Klem is sitting in jail without bond. She didn't hurt anyone.
The shame here is the fact that she is being singled out for scorn and derision.

They are grown ups that did something stupid and now are paying for it.
It's a shame because she must have a lot of issues that I hope with her family she can work through.
I don't think anyone needs to talk bad about her.
Non of us are not all that innocent or righteous.

My sentiments exactly! I'm glad to see the donations are coming in for her defense!

What should get people angry here is a justice system that lets a thug who hurt the woman in the TJ Maxx parking lot out on bail and a system that keeps Margaret Klemm in jail.Ridiculous as are the self righteous people on here condemning her.

According to the article he has charged $20,000 on his credit cards for legal fees for her. He and her children are the ones about whom I am concerned. They are the victims here, not her.

Peggy has quite a history, years of substance abuse and associated legal issues and is in jail without bond for a parole violation. I do not feel at all sorry for her. Nobody held a gun to her head to make her behave as she has for years. She needs to suffer the consequences of her own behavior.
