A woman has reportedly admitted receiving a mobile phone from her boyfriend that was allegedly stolen during a robbery, while insisting that she never accompanied him on any robbery operation.
In a statement attributed to her, the woman said she was aware that the man she was dating was an armed robber but maintained that she had never followed him to participate in any of his alleged criminal activities.
“I’ve never followed them to any robbery operation before. The guy I was dating gave me one of the phones that they stole. I knew he was an armed robber,” she reportedly said.
Her statement has drawn attention to the issue of people who may receive or benefit from property allegedly obtained through criminal activities, even when they do not directly participate in the crimes themselves.
The circumstances surrounding the reported confession, including where and when it was made, the woman’s identity and whether she has been formally charged, remain unclear.
Receiving property suspected to have been stolen can have legal consequences depending on the circumstances, the person’s knowledge and the applicable law. However, the woman’s reported statement alone does not establish criminal liability, and any allegation would need to be examined through the appropriate legal process.
Further details are needed to establish the full circumstances of the case and whether law enforcement authorities have taken any formal action.
