Woman indicted in patients’ jewelry theft
PEORIA —
A Peoria woman has been indicted by a Peoria County grand jury for allegedly stealing from people at an Alzheimer’s care center.
Lacey R. Simmons, 25, of 1824 N. Sheridan Road is charged with three counts each of burglary and financial exploitation of a person with a disability. She faces up to five years in prison if convicted.
Simmons is accused of taking jewelry from three patients at the Grand View Alzheimer’s Special Care Center in May.
Police said she told them she took some of the $3,000 in jewelry that was missing from the care center in late May.
Though Simmons reportedly pawned the pieces at local shops, a few of the items have been recovered and returned to their owners. Police are still looking for the remaining jewelry.
