@crimenightly: A newly hired employee broke down during questioning after being accused of stealing hundreds of dollars worth of scratch off lottery tickets from the store where she had only been working for about a week. According to the investigation, management discovered the register was roughly seven hundred dollars short and reviewed surveillance footage to figure out what happened. They claim the cameras showed the employee repeatedly taking entire rolls of scratch off tickets during her shift without paying for them. When confronted, the employee became emotional and admitted she had recently gone through personal hardships, including losing her boyfriend, and said she was overwhelmed while trying to rebuild her life. She allegedly admitted to scratching the tickets and offered to repay the money, explaining she only had around one hundred dollars available at the time. Officers acknowledged her difficult situation but explained that the store would still likely pursue charges due to the amount involved and the evidence collected. The footage has sparked mixed reactions online, with some people sympathizing with her struggles while others argue that personal hardship does not justify theft. Do you think financial desperation should ever influence how theft cases are handled? #BodyCam #Police #Theft #RetailCrime #ViralVideo
