Seattle Dog Walker Charged With Thefts

Filed under: Legal News — Tags: — enux @ 8:13 pm

A dog walker,  Seattle resident Mary Winslow Chodl, has been charged with possibly stealing items from her customers. Of course, she is innocent untill proven guilty.

 All in all, she was charged with first degree theft, second degree theft, identity theft and trafficking stolen property, by the local Prosecutors Office. According to Medina Police spokesman Dan Donohoe, Chodl might face further criminal charges as the investigation is continuing. She might just need a good criminal attorney for this one. 

 

The charges come after a complaint by one of Chodl customers who stated they were missing over $110,000 in jewelry and related personal items. Chodl stands accused of stealing jewelry, artwork, carpets, clothing items and other property from her said customers, some of which she is accused of pawning. Chodl is accused of allegedly stealing a wedding ring valued at $55,000 and a gold watch that she allegedly sold for $1500. By the way if you live in Seattle and you need an excellent Seattle criminal attorney then may I suggest the Law offices of Jason Newcombe as he is indeed one of the better seattle criminal attorney working right now.

 

The Medina females whose items were allegedly stolen by Chodl called police December 5th after she found the wedding ring and watch missing, she also stated the Chodl who had walked her 3 canines for six years and one other person had access to the home. Chodl when questioned stated to police according to Medina Police Chief Jeffery Chen that the client is known to misplace items.

 

The authorities inspected Chodl’s apartment after obtaining a warrant where they then discovered certain stolen property items.

Sounds like Chodl can expect some criminal charges coming down the pike sometime soon. Better call that attorney sometime soon.

It was also reported when Chodl was arrested at her residence she was in possession of two credit cards and a drivers license belonging to another person.
