FOX 5 Atlanta reported that Carroll had scanned and paid for a handful of items at the self-checkout kiosk, but not all of them. Authorities said that Carroll had done this several times between September and November.
Carroll is currently listed as the chairman of the college’s criminology faculty. He has worked at Georgia Gwinnett College since 2014 and is a Fulbright scholar.
Carroll’s shoplifted items ranged from golf gloves to wine glasses, dog food, bedding, and probiotics, FOX 5 reported.
