Thieves are always on the lookout for products worth stealing. However, while usually these are high-priced, in-demand items they can quickly sell for a profit, one DFW crime team had a different idea for their theft ring. Lake Worth police arrested a brother and sister crime duo recently after they were accused of stealing thousands of dollars worth of scented candles.
Earlier this week, Lake Worth police arrested 19-year-old Dexter Goynes and 22-year-old Destiny Goynes after they were accused of stealing scented candles from a local retail store. Dexter was first arrested after police spotted him at the store Monday. His sister, Destiny, was later arrested in connection to the case.
According to Fox 4 News, Police were able to recover dozens of candles, and they have since been returned to the store. The thieves have been charged with engaging in organized criminal activity. Now, it seems their scented candle stealing days are over.
