That’s after 39 year old Cresencio Gongora III admitted to stealing $13,000 dollars of flatware from a Bryan woman in January 2015.

Gongora also pleaded guilty to two counts of misdemeanor theft that happened last year.
A couple from Richardson, north of Dallas, is in the Brazos County jail following their arrests by College Station police on warrants that resulted in the recovery of nearly 900 items from multiple Walgreens stores. CSPD’s Facebook page says the seven warrants against 21 year old Maria Stoican includes police departments in the Fort Worth suburbs of Grapevine, Burleson, and Euless. She and her 22 year old husband Emanuel are also held on warrants in Harris County. CSPD arrest reports say the couple was arrested in the parking lot of the College Station Walgreens store on Fitch. Their capture came after they are accused of taking what an arrest report said “mass quantities of cosmetics” were taken from the Walgreens at Texas and Brentwood. Officers found in their SUV, multiple black trash bags containing cosmetics. The CSPD Facebook post said the estimated value of the recovered merchandise was almost $10,000 dollars. The CSPD Facebook post also said the couple’s baby and two year old child were placed in protective custody. And online jail records show the woman is also being held for immigration authorities and on warrants from Rockford and Will County, Illinois.
