The unnamed employee worked in Bolivar at the grocery chain Giant Eagle for eight years – during that time authorities say she helped herself to three to five slices of ham every day, totaling $9,200 in lost revenue. Authorities say she would also sometimes eat salami.

The Associated Press reports that the store’s loss prevention manager received a tip that the employee had been eating the meat slices for years.

The woman is facing potential felony theft charges, however, Tuscarawas County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement on Facebook that “felony charges are unlikely.”

“While our office did take a report of the issue as requested by the store, no determination of charges has been made. The procedure is to send the report to the Prosecutor’s Office and they are the ones to decide.

“While my office does not have the authority to make the final decision in this case, I do feel confident that once all of the facts are relayed to the Prosecutor, Felony charges are unlikely,” the statement read before adding that no arrests and “no formal filing of charges” had happened.

Film at 11... 😟

over 9K? that's gotta be a couple pounds a week....seems like she's been putting away an awful lot of meat

That's not insignificant....

260 days x 8 years = 2080 days

2080 days x 5 slices of ham = 10,400 slices of ham

10,400 x 25 grams (avg weight/slice) = 260,000 grams of ham

260,000 grams = 573.202 lbs of ham slices

This is not the mathematical calculation of a slender woman...

Interesting... You went from the weight/slice side... I was going estimating the cost/lb of meat.

Given that you got a lower number... That means they have a wildly overpriced salami.... I think I was estimating 12$/lb... Your calculations put it closer to 16$/lb

Something smells fishy... and I don't think it's the seafood aisle...:-k

Probably stiffed him on his (cold) cut...

Could be the salami after she was done with it....#-o
