A California mom is accused of orchestrating a nationwide shoplifting scheme that stole millions of dollars' worth of makeup and clothing from hundreds of stores for more than a decade, according to the California Department of Justice.

According to a complaint filed by California Attorney General Rob Bonta, more than $300,000 worth of makeup and other products were found in Michelle Mack, 53, and Kenneth Mack's shared Bonsall home when a search warrant was served on Dec. 6, 2023.

Mack allegedly paid for airfares, hotels and car rental costs for up to a dozen women who would go out and steal goods before sending them to Mack's home. Mack would then allegedly sell the stolen goods at a discount on her Amazon Marketplace storefront.

Her group, which investigators have called the "California Girls," operated in more than a dozen states around the country, targeting outlets including LensCrafters, Sephora and at least 231 Ulta stores, according to NBC San Diego.

If she goes to jail she'll have the perfect song to walk out to when released...

But black people are the faces of "smash and grab" but it's really the white folk who are behind the scenes pulling the strings. Brilliant.

Reminds me of the Sopranos Season 2 where the young black dudes are the faces of carjacking but it's Tony shipping the cars overseas to sell.

Throw her under the jail if true, we can joke all we want, but these thief's need to be stopped, it affects EVERYONE, except of course AOC's friends who only take bread to eat.

California sucks. They were basically letting thieves steal from stores and this woman took it too far. California should just separate from the rest of the US.

Mexicans and Demonio blanco seem to be the biggest fences.

Why can't they just say the numbers? Do they think my brain can't comprehend "11 women" and "13 states"?

Looty can loot when he wants to. Why can’t a rich white woman?
