Oregon City woman Rainbow Melodi Stammet, 43, was convicted on two counts of first-degree aggravated theft and first-degree theft. Officials say other charges were dismissed as part of her plea agreement. She has been paying restitution to Fred Meyer and has no prior criminal history.
Officials say Stammet had been working for the retailer for two years when loss prevention officers “noticed her taking cash from a self-checkout station at the Oregon City store in March 2023.”
“When confronted, Stammet told an Oregon City police officer that she stole the money to support her gambling habit, spending some of the cash at a local video poker outlet,” the DA’s office said.
Fred Meyer officials said they couldn’t determine the total amount that was stolen but that the thefts started occurring in May 2022.
Stammet will be sentenced on Aug. 4.
