She’s caught with her hand in the cookie jar.

A North College Hill mom is accused of stealing over $1,600 worth of Girl Scout cookies from her daughter’s local troop, according to police.

Noel Hines, 31, allegedly accepted a large cookie order to sell for the troop in March but when funds were due, the Girls Scouts of Western Ohio claim they never received a payment.

Girl Scout officials and police then tried to contact Hines for six months but were never successful.

“That’s the way the cookie crumbles,” North College Hill police wrote in a Facebook post.

On Tuesday, Hines was arrested for unrelated charges and charged with theft at the North College Hill Mayor’s court, police said.

According to the Girl Scouts of America’s cookie manual, cookies are $4 dollars each — making Hines responsible for around 400 boxes of cookies.

I wonder if she's eaten them all already. Hope it was worth the $1600 plus the charges!

This kind of thing happens more than you think. Even with the Cub Scouts selling popcorn in decorative tins. People who you would never believe would do something like this. The biggest problem is the Boy Scout organization won't sue or report it as stolen merchandise, believing that it would hurt their reputation.. I'm sure the Girl Scouts are much the same.

I know about Cub Scouts, Girl Scouts not so much, but I assume they are basically the same type thing just different genders.

They get me every time I enter the supermarket. I give the boy scouts money but don't take the popcorn.

I buy the cookies take them and they sit in the cabinet until someone is desperate enough to at them.

I sold CS popcorn for 12 straight years, I'm sick of popcorn, never want to eat it again.
