AUGUSTA, Maine — A Maine woman police say acted as a driver or a lookout in dozens of burglaries and thefts committed by her boyfriend has pleaded guilty to taking part in 46 crimes.
Emily Allen-Perry of Jefferson pleaded guilty Wednesday in Kennebec County Superior Court to her involvement in dozens of crimes between Sept. 1 and Dec. 27 in Augusta, Belgrade, Benton, Chelsea, Clinton, Farmingdale, Gardiner, Hallowell, Manchester, Readfield, Vassalboro, Windsor and Winthrop.
Prosecutors say the 22-year-old Allen-Perry also took stolen items, including jewelry, to pawn stores.
The Kennebec Journal reported that the case was cracked after Allen-Perry pawned some distinctive jewelry that was recognized by the owner.
Allen-Perry faces seven years in jail, with at least five suspended at sentencing.
Her lawyer described her as “a bright person.”
Apparently my definition of “bright person” is different from her lawyer’s definition of “bright person”.
Bright as a burned out light bulb!
If by “Bright Person” he means being a criminal “MASTERMIND” and leading the police to her and her boyfriend, then she is the brightest person(criminal) I know. Maybe she can play the North Star at the prison’s next Christmas Theatre Production with all of her brightness.
Okay, bright people are capable of making dumb mistakes a couple of times, but 46…?
She likely got caught for 2 or 3 and then owned up to 46 counts, that alone would make her as bright as a street light in the daytime.
“This bright person” is really pretty stupid to think she could get away with all these thefts she was involved in.
I’ve known a lot of people in my day who were both “bright” and “not as bright as they think they are”.
obviously, very capable of skirting the authorities as well
Allen-Perry faces seven years in jail, with at least five suspended at sentencing..even brighter not.
