Court documents reveal more about Elmore County Food Pantry theft

Some details related to theft from the Elmore County Food Pantry and its thrift store are now known. Plus, bonds for former board president Jeff Andrews and director Kathy Hall have been lowered following their arrest for first-degree theft.

Court documents state the Wetumpka Police Department was called to the Elmore County Food Pantry Thrift Store about missing money on March 8, 2025. The call comes after employees had asked about a raise in October 2024 and told no due to the store not making a profit and a confrontation between an employee with Andrews and Hall over missing money.
