SINGAPORE — A woman in her 20s, desperate to feed her two young children, stole tins of milk powder from a supermarket in 2023. She was initially charged with theft in dwelling, facing possible jail time. Her case was later taken up by public defender Victoria Tay, who successfully reduced the charge to simple theft.
