in Federal court, back at it now at Lowes 10 years later
A former IRS clerk convicted in federal court more than a decade ago of stealing $330,000 worth of merchandise from Home Depot stores in nine states has been charged with repeatedly targeting the Lowes home-improvement store in Lowell by obtaining hundreds of dollars in refunds for stolen replacement windows. In Lowell District Court on Tuesday, Robert P. Dooley III, of Salem, was released on personal recognizance after pleading not guilty to two counts of larceny over $250. Prosecutors sought a $40,000 cash bail noting Dooley's lengthy criminal record and his history of similar crimes. The only condition Judge Michael Brooks ordered was that Dooley must stay away from all Lowes stores. lowellsun.com
