Mugshot Mania ~ Fat Shoplifters…
Meet Shmeco Thomas, 37 and? Ailene Brown, 28.? These two women will forever go down in history as the “Fat Shoplifters”…
Using their body fat to hide the stolen goods, the two women allegedly swiped at least $2,600 worth of merchandise from an Oklahoma TJ Maxx before being caught in the act.
Officer James Hamm said the two put items in “areas of their body where excess skin was” including “under their chest and armpits.” One of the women, Hamm said, tried to smuggle three pairs of boots underneath her breasts. 😕
