Caught this little gem over on WQOW.com. Charles Vance of Eau Claire cheated an old lady out of $88,000 and now he has to go to a class:

• Charles Vance was sentenced to five months in jail. In October, Vance was accused of accepting $88,000 to build a home for an elderly woman in Taylor Co. Prosecutors say Vance spent the money elsewhere and the woman ended up hiring someone else to complete the home. Along with jail time, Vance is ordered to do 50 hours of community service and attend a "Managing Your Money" course.

Judging by the mug shot, the lady was bamboozled by Jack Nicholson, circa 1992. Seriously, a "Managing Your Money" course? People who cheat old people out of money should be punished harder. (Photo from WQOW.)
