LUFKIN, TX (KTRE) -
Lufkin Police officers arrested a 22-year-old former Victoria’s Secret employee for felony theft Thursday after she allegedly stole more than $4,000 in merchandise and cash during a period from December 2013 to Feb. 7.
TeCosa Brena Walker, of Center, was arrested and charged with state-jail felony theft between $1,500 and $20,000. She posted a $2,000 bail and was released later Thursday.
According to the arrest affidavit, Lufkin Police officers responded to the Victoria’s Secret store in the Lufkin Mall on Feb. 11. The store’s manager told the officers that Walker had been stealing from the company. At the time, Walker was giving a statement to a representative of Victoria Secret Loss Prevention.
When the officers spoke to Walker, she allegedly told them that on several occasions between December 2013 and Feb. 7, she posed as a customer, ordered items on Victoria’s Secret online catalog, discounted the price of the items to zero, and had them shipped to her. She also allegedly made up fake customer return slips for items and kept the cash refunds from the register.
Later, Walker gave a written statement to a Lufkin Police Department investigator. She allegedly admitted to stealing about $4,000 worth of merchandise through ordering items online and discounting their prices to zero and making up the fake customer return slips.
According to the affidavit, Walker wrote, ‘There is no reason why this should have taken place. I was wrong for all the things I took, and I’ve come to realize that I have to take full responsibility for all this.”

This Thai Lingerie Ad Goes For The Heart Instead Of The Loins

When it comes to clicking on a lingerie ad that’s longer than five minutes, you’d probably expect to see was something along the lines of what Penelope Cruz did for Agent Provocateur not too long ago. Namely, a lot of ladies in lingerie. The only tears it will trigger are those of joy over such an array of glamorously packaged butts.
The Thai division of Wacoal recently went an unexpected route with its “Beauty Inside” campaign, producing three short films that use sentiment over skin. Each is based on a true story of women who faced tough decisions. The brand saved the real kicker for the third installment, which tells the story of a single mom and her little girl June. Despite a stigma attached to her situation, the mom doesn’t feel the need to explain who or where June’s father is (ed: if we’re quibbling, we could argue that the creators of the ad copped out regarding the origins of June. If the scenario were different, would Jane be portrayed as such a saint?).
They’re melodramatic, bordering on full schmaltz, but it might just get you weepy in a way you never thought underwear could.
