A former CVS pharmacy technician who stole drugs at work and fraudulently used a Villager’s credit card has been sentenced in the case.
Chelsea Lynn Ilg, 29, was arrested April 11 at the CVS Pharmacy on County Road 466 in The Villages.
Ilg was also charged with stealing a 77-year-old Villager’s credit card and using it to pay for a room at the TownePlace Suites in Spanish Springs. Ilg allegedly stayed in Room 229 with her out-of-state boyfriend. She took the credit card from the 77-year-old woman’s dresser drawer at her home in the Village of Palo Alto.
The woman had been contacted by her credit card company on April 5 after suspicious charges were detected, including a room at the Villages hotel. The woman went to the TownePlace Suites and confronted Ilg, according to an arrest report from the Sumter County Sheriff’s Office. Ilg denied using the credit card but “was a frequent visitor to (the woman’s) residence, and had ample opportunity to steal said credit cards,” the arrest report said.
Ilg was also charged with stealing Hydrocodone-Acetaminophen, Xanax and Morphine Sulphate. Ilg’s two purses were found in the CVS break room and some of the stolen pills were found in the purses, according to the arrest report.
This past week in Lake County Court, Ilg pleaded no contest to multiple charges of grand theft.
She has been placed on one year of community control, four years of probation and must undergo random drug screens.
