ANCHORAGE, Alaska — Police say Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin's sister-in-law is accused of breaking into the same home twice to steal money.

Deputy Wasilla Police Chief Greg Wood says 35-year-old Diana Palin was arrested Thursday after she was confronted by the homeowner in the governor's hometown of Wasilla. She faces two counts of felony burglary and misdemeanor counts of criminal trespass and theft.

Wood says tire tracks and shoe prints tied Palin to another break-in Tuesday in which $400 was taken. Police have not tied Palin to another burglary at the home last week.

Governor spokeswoman Meghan Stapleton says Palin is the half sister of the governor's husband and the family has no comment.

Diana Palin's husband says his wife has a court-appointed attorney.

Comments

It's funny how Palin flack Meg Stapleton has no comment on this family matter, yet she can't keep her mouth closed in regards to Levi.

I love watching the Palin soap opera. It is like watching a car crash but the good thing is that there are no innocent victims getting hurt, Just Sarah Palin.

[Acidicscold]

she and her entire family are malformed. some are criminals, others just stoooooopid, still others are neofascists.

[CamelotGypsy]

Perhaps Palin Family Values do not extend to half-siblings who obviously were in need of help, not judgement.

[peacegurl48]

What dignity Palin would have brought to the White House.

[winnie47]

....and Failin' Palin has the nerve to paint Levi Johnston as "white trash"? PUH-LEEZE! Take a good look at the The "First Dude's" family before you cast stones, Sarah!

[thats2much]

kekekekek hahaha funny and sad

"tire tracks and shoe prints tied Palin to another break-in"

Some good Nothern Exposure policework there...

: ) : )
I love "smart criminals"

[Miralo]

I'm sorry to hear that, but this is relevant to what? It's just a sign that Pa lin's extended family doesn't have the money, or know how to work the system enough, to keep these things hushed up. Pa lin's own record speaks for itself. Why drag this poor woman into the public eye?

[auramac]

Such role models. They can all see prison right from their houses.

[redsongia]

I'm sorry, but is this story true? I'm definitely not trying to like Sarah Palin, but this is getting a little silly!

[Paul Roscelli]

And this is important why...?

Change we can believe in, yeah sure. Keep the change, Palin in 2012

[JohnTalbutt]

If you don't think it is important why are you here?

[kudzumaster]

Probably for the same reason it was important for the Palin supporters to obsess and exclaim over Obama's extended family and associations.

In other words, it isn't important at all.

[winnie47]

Change with Palin in 2012? Yeah, right! Extremist views, hate-mongering, abuse of power, milking the system for money, using her position to get unqualified friends and family cushy jobs, no real skills except an acid tongue and a need to get even with those who disagree, blaming the media for her own shortcomings...that's not CHANGE, that's CHENEY.

[DallasDismay]

Palin in 2012 would be a Change To Fascism, much like the last 8 years have been.

[mkat]

God, how embarrassing for the Palin clan.

[winnie47]

God, how embarassing IS the Palin clan?

[chicamorena]

And this could have been America's Second Family. The mind boggles.

Kathleen Sebelius, President-2016

[DallasDismay]

Sebelius wouldn't be a bad choice! I'm also thinking Claire McCaskill...

[winnie47]

WE dodged a bullet THERE. But at least McCain came to his senses. He said he can't endorse her for POTUS in 2012. Even HE knows she's not up to the job.

[Sadie1976]

Thank-you John McCain, for making this hillbilly family major players in the GOP!

[curocat]

I thought Palin was Krystol's discovery..

[liminal67]

The unraveling of the story is epic.... and lame/sad...
