An 18-year-old Sussex woman is facing charges after she took her mother’s car to a friend’s house without permission because she was bored at home.
Brianna E. Biswell was charged in Tuesday with one count of joyriding. If convicted, she could face up to nine months in prison and $10,000 in fines.
According to the criminal complaint:
At 8:30 p.m. Sunday, police were called to a home in the W25000 block of Town Line Road in Town of Lisbon after Biswell contacted police and said her daughter had taken the car to the home without her consent. She also told police her daughter didn’t have a driver’s license and only has an instructional permit.
When police arrived at the home Biswell admitted to taking the car, saying she was bored at home because she didn’t have a cell phone or Internet connection so she could talk with friends, so she took the car.
She’s currently being held in Waukesha County Jail no $250 bond.
I suppose the mom here did what she felt needed to be done to get the point across. Also depends on if this is the first time she has done this or not??

@Ramiro I didn't get a license until I was 18 and was still able to have a life. Being bored does not make it okay to steal a car. Doesn't matter if it was her moms or not. Its still theft.
