Three people from Hull were recently arrested for allegedly selling stolen Victoria’s Secret merchandise in Madison County.
Attorney General Chris Carr said on Thursday, Nov. 20, that his Organized Retail Crime Unit has charged Esmeralda Rodriguez Teran, 47, Felix J. Teran-Salgado, 52, and Aileen Jovanna Teran-Rodriquez, 27, in connection with the crime.
The suspects allegedly received over $2,000 in stolen Victoria’s Secret merchandise and sold the stolen items on eBay.
“With the creation of Georgia’s first statewide Organized Retail Crime Unit, we’re working hand-in-hand with our law enforcement and retail partners to take down the criminal organizations that are selling stolen products in our communities,” Carr said. “This isn’t a victimless crime – businesses are losing billions to organized retail crime each year, and hardworking Georgians are losing their jobs. We won’t stand for it, and we’re fighting back to protect families and businesses throughout the state.”
The suspects were charged with one count of violation of the Fair Business Practices Act and one count of theft by receiving stolen property.
With help from the Attorney General’s Organized Retail Crime Unit, the case was investigated by the Madison County Sheriff’s Office and Victoria’s Secret Asset Protection.
