- Stefanie Woods, the teen made famous by her part in stealing from a Girl Scout and who's now facing charges for kidnapping and robbery, also made a court appearance yesterday in West Palm. A judge denied Woods' request for bond, meaning the 19-year-old will stay in lock-up. She's accused of collaborating with her boyfriend Alex Rill to rob a drug dealer. [WFLX]
