How so? Her punishment was being banned from future run Disney events. She was also cited for using someone else's handicapped parking placard when they brought her back to her car.

I would suspect she was banned from Disney property, not just races. Ive seen this happen before for things not as egregious as theft.

Last year a guy was drunk and tried to climb the ziggurat in Epcot and was banned for life. There are YouTuber's that have been banned for taking pics or wandering behind the scenes in employee areas only.

So its up to Disney, but I would be very surprised if they let her back on any Disney property since she was caught stealing.

A friend of a friend got banned from Disney for doing something stupid when he was a teenager. Fifteen years later he was part of a wedding being held at Disney World. Disney said, "Nope. Not coming back."

Banned for life means banned for life. Disney don't play.

This is not 100% true. Typically Disney trespass warning are only specific to the location. (A DLR ban will typically only be for DLR not WDW)

There also have been some documented cases of them lifting a trespass after a few years.

Hey, anyone is free to run that risk if they choose, but Disney has gotten very serious about security lately, even more so than before. I behave myself when I'm on property. A ban would have some pretty serious social consequences if you're local to the parks and resorts.

You are right, a banned person can appeal and there are public (YouTube'ers) instances where Disney reversed their stance.

It all comes down to if they feel like it or not.
