Bust Me Once, Shame On Me. Bust Me Twice, Shame on You?
Once apparently just wasn’t enough for a New Holland, PA woman.
Police say 10 minutes after Cynthia Irene Locke, 25, was released after being charged with shoplifting, she walked back into the same store and tried to steal again.
Locke and her boyfriend Jeremiah Shane Barr, 32, were charged with retail theft at 11:20 am on Wednesday at the Walmart store in Ephrata. They were immediately released.
The duo had allegedly torn tags off of more than $100 worth of goods and tried to get them out of the store in a stolen purse.
About two hours later, the same police officer was walking back into the store when employees notified him the lady was at it again.
This time, Locke allegedly tried to pinch $5 worth of make-up. She was charged with another count of retail theft.
Now, you tell me who’s the real dummy? Wait for it… because the officer released her a second time.
