A massive chicken wing theft has landed one Illinois woman in prison.
For 19 months, 66-year-old Vera Liddell managed to steal over $1.5 million worth of chicken wings from the school district she’d worked at for over a decade.
Liddell’s job required her to place orders with Gordon Food Services for the school but between July 2020 and February 2022,
Liddell decided she’d keep the food…despite ordering it for the school.
The problem was discovered after an audit revealed the food department had exceeded its budget by $300K…and they weren’t even halfway through the school year.
Liddell has pleaded guilty to the charges and has been sentenced to nine years.
