Caretaker Charged With Stealing Jewelry From Northbrook Home

CHICAGO (CBS) -- A caretaker is accused of stealing jewelry from a north suburban home over several months starting late last year.

Zeinab N. Awoseyila, 34, worked as a caretaker at a home in the 0-100 block of the Court of Harbinger Falls in Northbrook, according to Northbrook police. The homeowners discovered multiple items of jewelry missing between December 2015 and September 2016.
