The man KNEW he wasn't buying a rhinestone bracelet. He's been shopping in that store for years. The bracelet was an anniversary gift for his wife of 60 years. She showed the bracelet to her adult children who didn't agree with how their father was spending "their" money. They contrived a story about a $20 rhinestone bracelet. Ruth Spencer and her staff cleverly edited the interview with both parties. It made a sensational story and has likely tarnished a reputable local family business. Please stop publishing lies and obtain the facts.
