Packing Fudge: Woman Arrested For Stealing $70 Worth Of Fudge

A Maryland woman with a purse completely “packed” with fudge was arrested last week in the Maryland House Hotel where she was found, covered in chocolate and crying hysterically, on on a lobby sofa. The sofa was also stained with chocolate.

Catherine Anne Delgado, 35, had “chocolate smeared on her arms and shirt, and there was so much unwrapped chocolate in her purse that it was spilling out onto a hotel sofa.” Delgado had apparently tried to flush the bricks of fudge down a hotel toilet, which, according to the police report posted on The Smoking Gun, “stopped up the toilet.”

In addition to the fudge she had also stolen 5 M&M pretzel sticks. Half-eaten cookies were found at the scene of the crime. Someone call Encyclopedia Brown, there may be more to this case than meets the eye…

  3. I think the poster was having a laugh with the title as ‘packing fudge’ is a homosexual term for anal sex. Next an article about “Madame La Palma and her 5 daughters?”

    I think she stole a lot more than $70 worth of fudge….it’s usually really expensive.

    “Delgado was charged with swiping ten fudge loafs valued at about $70 and five M&M pretzels worth $19.45.”

    Looks like she probably stole nearly $800 worth of stuff from this store.

    @Pelagius: I totally just spit my water all over myself. That was great.

    Seriously people, this was supposed to be funny. You know, haha. Big deal if it isn’t about consumers and CEOs bendind poor people over. IT IS FUNNY! LAUGH!

    Well…. and sad. Poor lady needs some help.

    This has absolutely nothing to do with consumerism! A woman with an eating disorder stole chocolate and had a breakdown. BFD. (no seriously, it is, she obviously needs help) What the hell is it doing here?

    Maybe you guys need to reread your FAQ. This story reads a lot more like sensationalist crap about people doing stupid things, than anything to do with consumerism. Oh wait, I get it, she consumed the chocolate? Right.
