An Alabama house cleaner is accused of stealing $400,000 in cash hidden at an elderly couple’s home, taking small amounts repeatedly while working there.
The victims reported the theft after noticing the money missing and pointed to their cleaner as the suspect, reports Fox 10.
Authorities executed a search warrant at 28-year-old Tabitha White’s property after she admitted during an interview to removing “handfuls of cash” over several months.
Investigators recovered the funds along with numerous items purchased using the stolen money, including multiple vehicles, four-wheelers, electronics, lawn equipment and construction supplies.
Additional purchases uncovered during the probe included a mini-excavator, a large television and various unopened appliances still in packaging.
White now faces one felony count of financial exploitation of the elderly, with officials indicating more charges could follow as the investigation continues.
A sheriff’s lieutenant described the theft as shameful, noting how such crimes target vulnerable people living on fixed incomes who rely on what they have saved.
The couple kept the large sum of cash at their residence rather than in a bank, though details on its exact storage location remain unclear from official reports.
