Charniece Lee steals over $5,000 from Target

33-year-old Charniece Lee, an employee of Target, was taken into custody on November 16th for thefts that occurred at Target earlier in the year. Mr. Gentry, a loss prevention employee at Target, provided surveillance video of Lee making fraudulent returns in both January and October. Lee can be seen assisting the same unknown female in both incidents. The unidentified female would enter Target without any merchandise then approach Lee to make a “return.” Lee would then process a refund and give her cash from the register. The total of money stolen was $5,953.77. Lee admitted to making the returns and acknowledged that the unknown female did not return merchandise before collecting the cash. Lee was charged with theft of property.
