You must have heard many incidents of theft. Sometimes the thieves are so clever that they escape right in front of the police and sometimes they are so stupid that they start sleeping or eating in the house where the theft has been committed. However, some thieves have so much intelligence that they secretly commit fraud while working in their jobs and no one can do anything.
Stealing cannot be considered right under any circumstances. Moreover, if you steal food that is rightfully owned by someone, then it is no less than a sin. You must have heard about various scams and corruption but you might have rarely heard that someone can steal chicken as well. A woman did the same and stole chicken worth Rs. 12 crores.
Stole chicken worth 12 crores
This incident is from a state named Illinois in America. Here a woman named Vera Liddell worked in the Harvey School District. According to ABC News, 68-year-old Liddell stole the entire consignment of chicken meant for the students. She did this during the Covid pandemic. According to Cook County prosecutors, Liddell’s job was also to place food orders from Gordon Food Services. This is where the food supply for the school came from. Liddell placed orders for chicken wings from July 2020 to February 2022, got it billed as well but sent the chicken outside instead of giving it to the children.
Now he is sentenced to 9 years in prison
Since children were not coming to school during Covid, Liddell committed a fraud of one and a half million US dollars i.e. more than Rs 12 crore in their name during this period. This act of the woman came to light when the audit started in the year 2023. Here the budget of food service was Rs 2 crore more. In this case, Liddell has been sentenced to 9 years in jail.
