Bethany Storro, the 28-year-old woman who falsely claimed she was maimed by a stranger who splashed acid in her face, will face charges of second-degree theft for accepting donations from three strangers who tried to help her.
Tony Golik, a deputy prosecutor, told ABC affiliate KATU there is now a warrant for Storro's arrest, though it will not be carried out immediately because she is still in a local hospital.
He said prosecutors will seek higher-than-usual penalties because, as one court document put it, "the defendant committed the offense against a victim who was acting as a Good Samaritan."
Golik said second-degree theft charges can bring two to five months in prison.
and it will be a suspended sentence if she has no priors, but she should have to pay fines and do community service...with her face hanging out.
