ATHENS, Ga. - Two former University of Georgia employees and a former student are charged with a felony for stealing $11,000 worth of textbooks from university storage rooms.

University police say former employees Rachel Beth Ogg of Winterville and Polly Teresa Echols of Lexington and former student Lakisha Dion Sanders of Marietta were charged with theft by taking, conspiring to defraud the state and theft by deception.

Police said they sold the books to bookstores, but a worker noticed the large number of books the women brought to sell. The books sold for about $143 and the buyback was worth about $37.
