Lucy Roberts managed a jewelry store for a year and would bring jewelry home with her, falsifying inventory records. She left the job and later went on a cruise, sending selfies to her former coworkers and telling them how much fun she was having. Police arrested her at the airport when she returned to the UK.

Would be nice to see that selfie. Didn't find it anywhere.

It’s the only reason I actually clicked on the article

I see it a lot these days. An article talking about an image where the article doesn't show the image.

I try to remember the website and never go back to it. You already got my click. Show me the damn picture.
