A woman turned herself in to police Wednesday after a store surveillance video captured footage of two children sneaking behind display cases to steal thousands of dollars worth of jewelry, apparently on instructions from their mother and grandmother.
Bedford police made the video public this week and started getting tips minutes after it aired on local television.
The video, taken August 2 at a store called the Consignment Gallery, shows one woman, possibly the children’s mother, directing them to pocket certain items. An older woman, believed to be the grandmother, stuffs items down her shirt.
“It’s pretty upsetting,” Fleming said. “Watching the children methodically move through that jewelry area and take the items out for the mother is just astonishing.”
Bright kids — in a crooked family. What a wonderful future they have. Charmers.
They are go getters and that part is refreshing.
What a wonderful set of role models. Too bad we don’t allow flogging in this country.
Brilliant!
Must’ve been kids from the slums, whose folks can’t get decent paying jobs. That’s gotta be why the folks would want to steal.
Now, if the same had happened, but they were CEOs/executives’ kids — it would’ve never made the news.
Yah, the problem isn’t the poor people, folks!
By the way, think about this: most jewelry is just shiny rocks. Shiny rocks. Shiny rocks that are used to control the economy and the populace. They’re just shiny rocks.
