Caught on Camera: Small Business Owner Gives Suspects Time to Return Stolen Items Before Pressing Charges

Two women were caught on camera stealing from a metro small business in Oklahoma City’s midtown, specifically at Classic Charm Boutique. The store owner, Brooke Donoley, is giving the suspects a timeline to return the stolen items before pressing charges.

Brooke Donoley noticed two women taking clothes into the fitting rooms but only coming out with half of what they took in. She believes they hid the clothing in bags before walking out of the store. After realizing the items were missing, she took inventory and called the police. As a small business owner, Donoley emphasized the importance of not stealing from businesses like hers, as it directly affects her livelihood.

Donoley wants the suspects to understand the personal impact of their actions and hopes they will return the items they took. She has given them until the weekend to come back and pay for the items before pressing charges. Brooke Donoley believes that if these two women do not return with what they stole, it will be detrimental to her business and her ability to continue running it successfully in Oklahoma City’s midtown area.
