Electronics and clothes were also stolen.Woodard then picked the young boys up after the burglary and drove them to the west end to sell the items on the street, police said.One burglary victim said he was stunned a mom would help her 12-year-old carry out a crime."You pick your son up after he's done robbing a place? That's bad. That's bad on you," said a burglary victim's son, Willis Grant.Police said they suspect Woodard drove her child to commit other crimes as well. Authorities said the Flat Shoals Road burglary was just one of over a hundred burglaries to take place in recent months at other homes in the area.
