PHOENIX – Police in Phoenix say they've arrested a woman accused of leading an armed robbery gang involving her 12- and 14-year-old sons.

Police say 51-year-old Cynthia White Roberson coached some of the four boys and three men who would face charges with her. The suspects are accused of at least 20 armed robberies in Phoenix and Glendale since late April.

Police say Roberson lost her job six weeks ago and guilted her sons and some of the others into committing the robberies to pay for rent and a car loan.

“Guilty ass sin”. I don’t know but I’m pretty sure that’s her face, but it could be her ass.

Is this why people are so against this “home schooling” thing? I mean, the boys were learning a trade, right?

Guilting a family member into doing something illegal is the mark of a narcissistic abuser.

Her boys should be taken away from her. She's dangerous.

"....the mark of a narcissistic abuser."

Still, it's not as abusive as a birth-parent sending kids to a government school.
