CHICAGO - An 86-year-old Chicagoan who's been arrested more than 60 times pleaded guilty to the latest charge against her after being accused of stealing wrinkle cream and other items from a grocery store.
Ella Orko was arrested Aug. 2 after authorities say she stuffed $252 worth of items into her pants, including cosmetics, salmon, batteries and instant coffee.
she stuffed salmon in her pants, LOL. Then it'll really smell like a cat fish market in that place--a dead giveaway. Started wrinkle cream at 86-yrs-old? She's kinda late to the party on that.
Sounded like a very fishy situation. To stuff wrinkle cream, cosmetics, salmon, batteries and instant coffee in her PANTS, she must have had some pretty big pants. If you that desperate that you can't pay for this, you have to stuff it in your pants, then I don't think you need to getting cosmetics, salmon, etc. Focus on the important things, and at 86 years old, that isn't wrinkle cream. You're bound to have more wrinkles that pants that have been in a ball for a month when you are 86.
Bizarre stuff! I think I just lost my appetite for salmon FOREVER!!...LOL
I worked in a department store when I was in college and we had this little old lady that had to be 90 years old that would steal stuff. Thankfully she didn't stuff things down her pants but we really had to watch her because she would stuff just about anything she could in her pockets or her purse.
I wouldn't have wanted to be the one who searched her, the smell of that salmon would have freaked me out.
I hope the store didn't put that salmon back into the fridge to be sold!
A few summers ago I was working outside in the Lawn and Garden department at Walmart. We caught this old man stuff massive amounts of tulip bulbs down his pants. He cleaned out just about our whole display of various bulbs we had for sale. We stopped him as he exited out the L & G gate. Took him in the security room. He wasn't fazed a bit. From all appearances he was of sound mind. Because the theft was less than 500 dollars he was not arrested but did receive a citation to appear in court and was banned from Walmart and Sam's Club for one year. (He had to forefit his Sam's membership).
People do the craziest stuff!
