Texas Woman Gets Year in Prison for Crashing Weddings

SAN ANTONIO — A 31-year-old San Antonio woman was sentenced Friday to a year in federal prison for crashing weddings and stealing credit cards from the wedding participants while the couple said their vows.

Robin Neafie pleaded guilty to federal access device charges in April and was sentenced in U.S. District Court on Friday.

Prosecutors said she found weddings by looking through newspaper announcements or local church listings and then showing up well-dressed for an event.

While the ceremony was going on, authorities said she rifled through wallets and purses left unattended by wedding party members.

Prosecutors said Neafie continued the scheme for four years before being caught in June 2006 after victims reported unauthorized charges.

I bet she panicked a little when Wedding Crashers came out in '05.

People are pathetic... at least in 'Wedding Crashers' they were just doing it for the fun of it. She needs a hobby.... like pottery or basket weaving....

Only a year for credit card fraud? Man is the system ever getting soft! No wonder people are willing to do any crime when they need a bit of cash, there are no really tough consequences when ya do get caught! Just a year free room and board, medical, dental, three square meals and if you want you can get a free education or career training and make the tax payer who you stole from pay the tab! Oh ya thats justice! Not!
