susie first off goodwill does not have these so called dump sites that you are referring to. what people are referring to bins, are the dumpsters that these so called top of the line criminals are accessing, which are locked behind fencing and due to covid, Goodwill has stopped doing home pick ups.
And Steve, it hasn’t been just going through the bins in the back but yes they have taken catalyic converters from this location as well as the neighboring businesses.
This particular Goodwill is different from all the other facilities. First of all it is the warehouse. It appears this is where the theft occurred. Attached to the warehouse is the store. The store operates in a different manner than all the other stores. It has different hours, and different rules. Most clothes, hardware, and sundry items are sold by the pound. Prices on books, CDs, and DVDs are very inexpensive. The clerks are nice and congenial. No, I don’t work there…I just like to go there.
mom of the year, right here
Those bins are no more than dump sites when someone from Goodwill, let’s say maybe the CEO who lines his pockets can get off his big pillow and go pick this stuff up from people who donate. Goodwill needs to pick up their junk like other more organized Foundations do or be fined for their dump sites. Those big boxes are tiny houses for transients, vermin attractants and eye sores that welcome illegal dumping.
Same story except not catalytic converters. Thievery is a way of life for some , work is an inconvenience !
What a class act!! [NOT!!] Hope the daughter has someone that will take care of her, teach her morals, and guide her in the right direction. And, I pray the lady gets help and can be a positive role model for her daughter in the years to come.
All parents need to realize that we are our children’s PARENTS first and foremost…NOT THEIR FRIEND!!
Prayers for this young lady & her Mom
the claim made in comments that CEO makes 700,000 a year needs to do a fact check. claim is not true. this location is not goodwill industries but goodwill gulf coast. two different CEO’s. check it out before you make false claims.
The CEO of Goodwill pays himself $700,000 a year on those donated items. Of course he’s going to press charges on free money!

This is nothing new , many people does this and than go nd sell what they stolen. The other day in Dillard’s one of the sales representative told people that they just got robbed on brahmins purses my question to them how than the associate stated they used a silent alarm scanner and walked to the get away car waiting for them and JC penny’s as well. Now if the police try to stop them it would have been police brutality on them. Some peoples have lost all Respect for others but the evil will never win we need more laws in place respecting Law. The child were used in this Despicable situation learning how to steal and trying to get away with it what a shame it’s noting to be proud of the same way with the Purses it’s should be a higher bond maybe some Mississippi laws need to come to Florida for that scenery 10 years in Prison hard times I pray that she does’t do that again but who am I to say she been doing this it’s sad for the child
Rational, do you really believe or want someone to go to hell for stealing junk.???? Unreal!
This is not a case of “mental Health issues”. It’s plain stupid and “see if I can get away with stealing”. She had enough money for tats on her shoulder and enough money to post bail.
She is no stranger to ECSD..
@ Chris, I have never seen a Goodwill donation box that advertised: ‘come on, take whatever the heck you want’. Anyone else ever seen a sign welcoming theft ?
If ain’t yours, don’t take it !!!! Simple simple simple
38…. Meth is the great equalizer
when they enter by cutting up your fence, which this fence is around the business, enter your fenced in property to which does display NO TRESSPASSING signs which were from Sheriffs office and take from your property to the extent that they can fill up the bed of a pickup truck and still have enough waiting to load up that it could fill the truck up a second time then yes you are trespassing, damaging property and stealing. No one is allowed to take anything from a business, and if you have to do it in the dark of the night or middle of the night than you probably do not have permission. remember if a business has a fence and locks that fence, you are not allowed to enter especially with no trespassing signs.
REGARDING:
“They ought to arrest Goodwill for their overpriced items..”
Has someone been forcing any of us to shop there??
How will our children learn unless we teach them?
(Poor me, my Daddy never taught me how to steal.)
David for better parents
@Deborah D.
You got that right.
Honestly, I was unaware that things left outside the bins were not to be taken. I knew you couldn’t dig through the bins though.
They ought to arrest Goodwill for their over priced items..
This person is the lowest of the low with her daughter in the truck and stealing from the poor. There is a place in hell for her.
ratcheting down? higher than the cab? sounds like a professional.
Wow, I’ve seen lower bonds for real crimes where there was an actual victim. I don’t think I have enough information to make a calculated decision. How did the Goodwill people know what was in the donation box. Also, it is permissible at some sites, for people to remove items from the bins. If they didn’t have “No Trespassing “ signs, charges dropped. However, by looking at her and what she allegedly did, she more than likely has a long record anyways.
