VIRGINIA BEACH

A judge sentenced a Virginia Beach cleaning woman Monday to serve 30 days for stealing from her clients.

Rosa Landers was sentenced to six years, but all but 30 days were suspended.

Landers has pleaded guilty to three counts of grand larceny and one count of obtaining money by false pretenses.

In December, police were called to two locations in Virginia Beach about missing jewelry, according to a news release.

Police located the items in local pawn shops.

Landers worked for The Cleaning Authority at the time and had cleaned both homes, along with an estimated 60 others in Virginia Beach, according to the release. She no longer works for the company.

Police seized about 75 pieces of jewelry that Landers had pawned.
