Social Networks, Internet… a great tool but if used inappropriately…It can give you headaches and even get you arrested! This is what happened to Hannah Sabata, a 19-year-old teenager from Stromsburg, Nebraska who uploaded a video on YouTube describing how she robbed a bank…
She committed the crime on November 28 and then went straight home to share her latest felony with the world. Jezz..this girl was wearing the same clothing which she committed the crime with! She stole $6,256.
York County Sheriff Dale Radcliff said:
At the time of the arrest, she was wearing the same clothes she was pictured wearing during the bank robbery. Then we found the pink back pack that she was seen carrying in the bank. We also found the sunglasses. It was everything we needed. The stolen car was also recovered along with a bracelet left beside it on the ground that read, I love Hannah.
Her note she used when she robbed the bank read like this:
You are being robbed! No alarms or locks or phones or ink bags! I have a loaded gun. You have two minutes.
Sabata who loves to imitate Marcel Marceau is blaming the government of taking away her baby as the reason why she stole.
York County law enforcement arrested her in her house and they were able to trap her due to her video. On her 7 minute video she described how she did it, she stole a car and then robbed the bank…
She mentioned this to her mum in the clip:
I told my mom today was the best day of my life
She thinks I just met a new boy.
But Hanna had serious problems, besides her errand behavior. She is HIV positive and has major depression. She wore back in ‘10 a monitoring device (located on her ankle) for running away. She has been in Boys Town. Her BF is 11 years older than her.She uses LSD…
But the girl also has a sweet side and thinks she is a philosophical person who dreams to become a lawyer and politician. She is also an artist.
She ran away when she was in Boys Town, because she was being mistreated.
She got pregnant the same year she was diagnosed HIV and had an attempt of abortion. Luckily it didn’t happen and the baby was fine. She wrote about this on her blog:
i don’t know why but i already love this thing. how can you love something you don’t know/question mark/ and i realized i’ve never loved anything so much in my life before.
i’m usually so depressed cuz my life sucks so bad, don’t disagree because if you lived what i lived through, i guarantee you’d be traumatized; but anyway, i actually skipped down the road when i sent my letter to my husband in jail!
She got infected in a carnival. She was a virgin and the guy who made her sick called her a few months later and told her the news.
When she was 15 years old she tried to kill herself to imitate her music idol: Kurt Cobain.
She backups this:
So…I guess you can say, partly, that I attempted suicide because I wanted to be like Kurt.
She was taken to a mental hospital by her mum. There she got meds for her disease: Wellibutrin (an anti-depressant).
She overdose too and posted about it! She was interned in the hospital for 3 months…
She also recommended after her experience:
My advice is don’t overdose!! I wish I never have.
At the end, only $30 were found of all the money she stole.
