Caron McBride was hit with a nasty surprise after attempting to get her name changed on her Texas drivers' license after she got married.

McBride was told she had an "issue" in the state of Oklahoma and was given a number to call. She learned she had a record of a felony charge for failing to return a VHS tape to a local video store....in 1999.


The tape was of Sabrina the Teenage Witch. The charges were filed in 2000 and the video store closed in 2009.

But that didn't make the charges on her record go away.

As the tape in question was rented over 20 years ago, McBride said she had no recollection of borrowing it in the first place.

In fact, McBride thinks it was likely borrowed under her account by a man she was living with at the time for his two young daughters.

"I mean, I didn't try to deceive anyone over Samantha the Teenage Witch. I swear," she said demonstrating she likely was not the person watching the video, since the Teenage Witch's name is Sabrina—not Samantha.





This particular problem may have also caused issues in employment for McBride, who has been spontaneously let go from several jobs and denied interviews for others.

If a felony charge for theft by embezzlement was showing up on her record, it would present a problem for employers.





"Movie Place," the name of the store the rental was from, reported the tape as stolen in 2000.

McBride was formally charged at that time with "felony embezzlement of rented property."





The Cleveland County Oklahoma District Attorney decided not to press charges and dropped the case against McBride. But she still needs to sue the state of Oklahoma to have it expunged from her record.

Nobody deserves to go to have their life ruined over "Samantha" The Teenage Witch.

Trump Ripped After Going Off On Bonkers Rant About Room's Decor During Cabinet Meeting

During Tuesday's cabinet meeting while the press was in attendance, MAGA Republican President Donald Trump gave a rambling stream of consciousness speech that went all over the place before landing on paint versus gold leaf, leading people to again question the POTUS' mental acuity amid a notable cognitive decline.

In a disjointed monologue about the decor in the cabinet room, Trump said he stole a grandfather clock from Secretary of State Marco Rubio's office and chose a painting of James Polk because the frame matched the frame around his favorite President—Andrew Jackson.

Adams jumped on the latest Instagram trend this week, sharing his version of a “morning routine” video with his followers. The trend, which has already begun to fade, typically features sped-up clips of people going through their early rituals—complete with edits, ambient music, and timestamp overlays.
