MARIETTA, Ga. (AP) - Authorities say a Georgia woman faces felony theft charges after lying about being an evacuee from New Orleans, receiving money from the American Red Cross and getting a good Samaritan to take her into her home.

Police arrested 36-year-old Beretta Jo Hogg on Saturday and charged her with theft by deception. According to police, Hogg showed up at a relief shelter in Marietta with her 8-year-old son. She claimed to have lost everything in the hurricane. Hogg waited in line, filled out the paperwork, and was given $1,300 in aid.

A woman who felt sorry for Hogg took her and her son into her own home. However, the son told the woman he attended school in Stone Mountain. The woman called authorities and Hogg was arrested and taken to jail.

*smh*
