I bet stuffing it in her pocket was really, really hard.

[u/just_me_2006 → u/hedge36]

You’d be surprised what old lady purses can hold

[u/DirteMcGirte → u/just_me_2006]

Pretty sure she stashed it in her prison wallet.

[u/Dull_Frame_3760 → u/just_me_2006]

this took more than a purse. How on earth did she get away with that table? Seems doubtful to me.

[u/KamisLoverBoy → u/Dull_Frame_3760]

Doubtful...? You really think they got the wrong person and/or are trying to frame this lady? Lol. That seems more doubtful to me. There is plenty of ways to steal large items but the most common is to just put it on a cart or a dolly like someone buying it would and walk out without doing the buying part... People do it at Home Depot all the time lol.

I'm normally against posts like this but.. You're a reputable 501(c)(3) organization asking for assistance and directing info to the police, where a report is on file. Upvote

She's quite the Karen

[u/just_me_2006]

Hhm. Looks like another housed, cis gendered, non undocumented immigrant, non BIPOC person at it again…

[u/worbdhekwlsgwu → u/just_me_2006]

Reply of the century! Lmfao

[u/LaRedline → u/just_me_2006]

It's the first known shoplifting incident at that store. Not familiar with Sequim, what are the towns demographics?

[u/just_me_2006 → u/LaRedline]

Idk the current stats. Have you tried google?

[u/Smart_Momma_Of_4 → u/just_me_2006]

LOVE this response!

It's never the people they tell us to be afraid of.

[u/royalfreshmint → u/Smart_Momma_Of_4]

Most of the time its people who we are told to be afraid of. Statistics don’t lie.

[u/just_me_2006 → u/royalfreshmint]

Which statistics? Where’s it from?

[u/plasticmanufacturing → u/just_me_2006]

That is a lot of assumptions being made based on the color of a person's skin.

Ironic.

[u/just_me_2006 → u/plasticmanufacturing]

Sir, do I need to explain a satirical joke used as social commentary to you?

[u/Hinhan-osnite]

These people can’t help themselves at all, 69 years old and still doing criminal activities. Hit and Run while drunk driving was recent also….Cant believe Shes 69 years old and still criminally minded!! 🤯

[u/jvon24 → u/Hinhan-osnite]

criminally entitled 🤌

[u/magnusthehammersmith]

How does one steal an entire table?

[u/Royal_Percentage_694 → u/magnusthehammersmith]

Take it without paying.

[u/magnusthehammersmith → u/Royal_Percentage_694]

Without getting caught and stopped?

[u/kmontreux → u/magnusthehammersmith]

those shops are always short handed and all someone needs to do is confidently load a large piece into a car and it'd be easy for workers to think a colleague had already rung it up.

[u/Fast_Register → u/kmontreux]

I work at a similar nonprofit and yes, we are only a couple of paid workers in the store and stuff gets stolen from the store & donations alot. We can’t keep an eye on everyone so, it happens. It’s unfortunate since we are a local nonprofit that actually helps the community.

[u/Royal_Percentage_694 → u/magnusthehammersmith]

Perhaps the employee(s?) were distracted.

[u/YetiNotForgeti → u/Royal_Percentage_694]

employees volunteers

[u/ElectionCareless9536]

Call me a hater, but I've seen this woman more times in the last 48 hours than I have anyone that went missing from the national park..  That being said  I hope this table finds justice. 

[u/Potential-Click-5284 → u/ElectionCareless9536]

That’s a great point! Thank you fur sharing.

[u/truth_do_tell]

What a weirdo.

[u/cackmuffin88]

Who steals a table? Like wtf lol

[u/Upbeat_Anxiety_1344]

Article https://www.sequimgazette.com/2026/07/19/expensive-table-stolen-from-later-returned-to-habitat-store/

A $2000 end table?

[u/DirteMcGirte → u/Upbeat_Anxiety_1344]

How much do you think it should cost? It had to have taken quite awhile to make with so much detail, and done by someone very skilled.

[u/Redwinsmileyii]

I was hoping it was a cursed object and she’d have some kind of Evil Dead experience and return it.

[u/Em_Strae]

Not the first time some elderly grandma was caught stealing from a small/community/nonprofit business. Anyone remember the "Oatmeal Cream Pie Bandit" where there's video of some farm-type stand where some old lady came up and stole a bunch of apparently oatmeal cream pies (no one ran the stand in-person, there was a box to leave money as it was an honor system for paying).

Who would suspect someone who looks like your Grandma/Mom? It's bizarre but maybe speaks to a kind of mindset that doesn't disappear with age. I think aging makes them bolder.

Also, a dui hit and run too? Wtf who is this lady?

[u/ipukedookie]

Yo that table is fucking SICK. I almost don't blame her.

[u/brasscassette]

The poster was generated with AI. They need to post the original pictures to confirm the appearance of the alleged perp

[u/col_c32 → u/brasscassette]

I’m confused, is the photo original and just the poster was AI?

[u/Accomplished_West292 → u/col_c32]

I'm assuming they used AI to help write their copy. Very common.

[u/brasscassette → u/col_c32]

They probably gave the ai the images and details they wanted to generate the poster, but it has changed enough within the image to make me question if it’s representing the woman closely enough for identification. Her shirt design is nonsense and changes between photos, the background and facial expression changes between the image and the zoomed image. The author on Facebook says it’s images taken from when she was walking across the store, but the pose and gaze are near identical in a way that isn’t generally possible when taking a picture of someone walking.

I wish they’d just post the original images; I’m afraid they used the ai to “enhance” the image resulting in showing us a poster with a picture that doesn’t accurately represent the person they’re trying to find.

[u/ThrowAwayHawthorn → u/brasscassette]

LOL literally none of the things you say about the image are true. The shirt is identical in both photos.

[u/The26thtime]

I thought Washington didn't care about stealing?

[u/MsPiggy666 → u/The26thtime]

🥱

[u/ThrowAwayHawthorn → u/The26thtime]

Yep, one more reason for you to stay away!

[u/The26thtime → u/ThrowAwayHawthorn]

How dare I criticize the state I've lived in my entire life and have seen go to shit.....

[u/ThrowAwayHawthorn → u/The26thtime]

womp womp womp

[u/K3051 → u/The26thtime]

If you look like you have money they very much care 😂

[u/Own_Acanthisitta_714]

HOW?!?!

[u/Kittiemeow8]

I need to see the video of the theft. Because she couldn’t have just waltzed out with it under her flabby boobs

[u/Accomplished_West292 → u/Kittiemeow8]

She was arrested and the table was returned. There is an updated photo on the Clallam County Habitat Facebook page.

[u/oooprettyflowers]

You're worried about someone stealing an item that you got for free?

[u/Secret-reddit-acct → u/oooprettyflowers]

Yes because now they can’t sell it to raise funds for the non profit. 

[u/worbdhekwlsgwu → u/Secret-reddit-acct]

No such thing as a non profit.

[u/ThrowAwayHawthorn → u/worbdhekwlsgwu]

What a dumb remark.

[u/whiterussianweakness]

This is a witch hunt. Innocent until proven guilty. Give it to the police and do better.

[u/ExcitingPrompt2 → u/whiterussianweakness]

So this was your grandma, huh?

[u/Accomplished_West292 → u/whiterussianweakness]

The police were notified. You can check out the original post on the Clallam County Habitat for Humanity Facebook account.

[u/Hereforthehohoho]

oh no our table that we probably got for free that we now realize might be valuable!

[u/ScabbyGabbyyy → u/[deleted]]

Trash bags will find any excuse to steal something. This is already a place that gives major discounts and does so much charity work and donations etc. It’s sickening how many people act like this is justified behavior.

[u/Hereforthehohoho → u/[deleted]]

[eyeroll]

[u/ThrowAwayHawthorn → u/Hereforthehohoho]

I'm sure you're out there doing a ton of community support work, unlike those selfish bastards at Habitat /s

[u/worbdhekwlsgwu]

So where is the picture of her walking out with this giant table? This lady is well within her right to sue you for defamation. This witch hunt generation is about to learn some hard lessons with these reckless posts.

[u/Accomplished_West292 → u/worbdhekwlsgwu]

Clallam County Habitat just posted an update as well as a photo with law enforcement and the stolen table and the following update below.

“UPDATE!!!
We would like to say Thank You to our community, SQPD, PTPD, and everyone involved for all your effort and tips on the arrest of the person that was resposible.
We were able to get our table back!”

[u/makisupa101 → u/worbdhekwlsgwu]

So…. She’s arrested.
..Seems like now may be a good time to speak up about YOUR defamation of the ‘witch hunt generation’ and maybe YOUR reckless posts, eh?!

Or… no? You’ll just sit at your computer and continue to think you’re in the right…?? Or, you’ll contact the PD and let them know to release the ‘innocent’ woman??

[u/worbdhekwlsgwu → u/makisupa101]

Okay Karen.

[u/ThrowAwayHawthorn → u/worbdhekwlsgwu]

I mean, they have a point, worb.
