A group of tomb raiders, comprising a mother, her daughter, and the daughter's boyfriend, are being sought by authorities for allegedly stealing valuables from cemeteries across at least nine states in the United States. The suspects, identified as Porsche Bancroft, 32, Drake Lee Milam, 33, and Angela Garrett, 52, all from Indianapolis, have reportedly broken into niches and mausoleums while traversing the eastern half of the country.
The Orange County Sheriff's Office in Florida has issued arrest warrants for the trio, with detectives currently investigating 20 cases in Florida and suspecting that the number of victims could be significantly higher. Authorities are urging the public to check their loved ones' graves in niches for any missing property and are offering a reward of up to $5,000 for information leading to the suspects' arrest.
