WEST CITY, Ill. (AP) -- A Roman Catholic priest for St. Andrew's Catholic Church in Christopher and St. Mary's Catholic Church in Sesser was accused of shoplifting butter and a sofa cover at a Wal-Mart in southern Illinois. Police arrested 41-year-old the Rev. Steven Poole on Friday. He's charged with two felony theft counts. Investigators said Poole failed to scan a $3.22 container of butter and a $60 sofa cover at a self-checkout. Poole then allegedly went to the store's bedding section, picked up a memory foam mattress and switched the pricing bar code. That caused the $145 item to be scanned for $31.
he also possessed a stolen laptop computer power pack.
