A former BYU-Idaho student who allegedly stole several items from different businesses changed her plea to guilty Monday.

20-year-old Tavia Womack of Arizona is accused of burglarizing over 10 businesses in May.

She was caught after going into a Rexburg music store and switching an old guitar for a new instrument. The next day Womack tried to buy a guitar case at the Idaho Falls Chesbro music store.

Workers called police and she was taken into custody. Officers then found over 250 stolen items at Womack's apartment.

This week Gov. Otter signed a bill requiring Idaho to sue the federal government if Congress passes health care reform. What's your response to this?

  • It's great to see Idaho taking the lead on this. Someone has to stand up to what's happening in Washington.
  • We can't afford to pay for education in Idaho, but we're going to spend tax dollars to sue the feds? Ridiculous.
  • Not sure.
