Former UH Downtown employee stole nearly $9K for Amazon purchases, rent, then doctored documents, records show

As, I was scrolling LinkedIn, I came across this post that was suggested for me to see. It fits in perfectly with our subject matter, so I had to share. 

Olin stole about $8k and then tried to adjust paperwork in attempts to cover it up. Obviously, she did not do a very good job of this because she inevitably did still get caught. The things she used the money on was a joke in my opinion, why even do it? "According to documents, Amazon purchases include health and beauty items, kitchen accessories, pet food, holiday lighting decorations, paper plates, jewelry, luggage, light bulbs, Apple AirPods, musical instruments, and more. All of the items, investigators allege, got delivered to Olin’s northwest Houston apartment." This person has a file already with Harris county, so it's not surprising this would be happening again to them. 

It always interests me to hear about people's motivations. I have always said if I could do some things over, I would like to study human behavior, sociology. It's just very interesting how our brains work. Particularly, the cult related topics. How do humans get other humans to just "blindly" become a follower/believer of themselves. Boy, this was a tangent.
