A woman filmed licking ice cream before putting it back on a supermarket shelf could face up to 20 years behind bars.
Detectives have been working to confirm the identity of the woman in the video and said when verified, police will arrest her on a charge of second degree tampering with a consumer product.
The video, which was uploaded to Twitter on June 28, shows the woman opening a punnet of ice cream and running her tongue over the surface of the dessert in a Lufkin Walmart store in the US state of Texas.

According to the state’s law, the charge the woman faces comes with a fine of up to $14,000 and a prison sentence from two to 20 years.
Police posted on Facebook the investigation was ongoing
Lufkin director of public safety Gerald Williams said the biggest concern was consumer safety.
“In that regard we are glad to see the tainted product off the shelves,” he said.
Blue Bell, the maker of the ice cream contaminated by the woman, have removed all half-gallons of the Tin Roof flavour from the Lufkin Walmart shelves.

This is not funny. It's sick behavior but it does not warrant criminal charges. It does is highlight why a lot of us don't purchase Bluebell. They don't have their product protected. #bluebellfingerpointing #realprotectiveseals #kidsplaypranks— PureLuv _33 (@LittlesSonya) July 2, 2019
She should be charged. This should be the same thing as spitting in somebody’s face— Dylan (@Dylanleidig) July 4, 2019

This should be a criminal charge.
Overly dramatic, NO. People like me with a compromised immune system (#lupus) I go out of my may to stay away from germs often missing out on life moments. Then some pathetic excuse for a human can carelessly put lives at risk.
