Police say a Massachusetts woman skipped her own mother’s funeral so
she could break into the dead woman’s house and steal a safe filled with
items worth $90,000.
The Telegram & Gazette reports
that 30-year-old Alyce Davenport was held on $15,000 bail after
pleading not guilty Monday to seven charges. An alleged accomplice was
held without bail on a warrant.
Police say Davenport and her accomplice went to the mother’s home on
Friday during the funeral. Police say she did not attend her mother’s
funeral and was not answering calls from relatives.
Police were tipped off about the alleged theft by the boyfriend of Davenport’s mother.
Davenport and her accomplice were found at a Sturbridge motel on Saturday.
It could not immediately be determined if Davenport has a lawyer.
