Steal Perfume, Go To A Stinky Jail


In the Massachusetts town of Hingham At 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday (March 12), Officer Robert Stockbridge was dispatched to Kohl’s at the Derby Street Shoppes where loss prevention at the store had detained two women for allegedly shoplifting. Officer Heather Hermida arrived to assist. In speaking with loss prevention, the officers learned that the two women being detained were observed on closed circuit TV. One of the women looked to be pointing out jewelry and perfume to the other, who actually picked the items up. The woman with the merchandise, later identified as Devona Washington, 46, of 30 Walnut Park #17, Roxbury, went into a fitting room and came out a short time later. Store security checked the fitting room where they found empty packaging for the jewelry and perfume. They followed the women out of the store and both were initially detained.

After the items were found in Washington’s purse, she was arrested and charged with larceny over $250. The value of the jewelry and perfume totaled $290, police said. The other woman, who is 41 and from Chelsea, was not arrested because if was not clear if the two women had been acting together, police said.
