DESTIN, FL — Theft, possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia are the charges faced by a cleaning woman who tried cleaning out more than just dirt and bacteria in a house she was contracted to clean, according to the Northwest Florida Daily.

Nicole Del Valle allegedly stole a platinum and diamond ring, a 14-karat gold bracelet and $78 cash, discretely hiding the items inside one of her socks, the story stated.

After Del Valle left, and the homeowner noticed the items were missing, she was called back to the house under suspicion that she stole the items, the story noted.

After being questioned by a deputy and initially denying haven stolen the items, Del Valle retrieved the ring from her shoe and the bracelet and cash from her sock; rolling papers and a small bag of marijuana were discovered inside her bra, the story added.
