CHARLOTTE — A woman who works at a courthouse full of accused criminals is now accused of being one herself.
Channel 9′s Hunter Sáenz has learned Mecklenburg County deputy clerk Almeter Bailey is behind bars for allegedly trying to rob a business at gunpoint.
Police said earlier this month, she walked into a PLS Check Cashing store on Albemarle Road, pulled out a pistol, and tried robbing the place.
On Wednesday, court officials told Sáenz she works for the Mecklenburg County Clerk of Court’s office. They said her employment was immediately suspended following the arrest.
Bailey is being held on a $50,000 bond.
