Woman arrested in theft of Rolexes

Two men targeted for watches worth $75K, officials say

Two arrests in 12 months suggest that Olivia Stepp may have an appetite for Rolex watches.

Stepp, 26, was most recently arrested by Boynton Beach police on Thursday for an incident dating back to November.

She is accused of stealing a Rolex watch worth $33,000 and illegally using the debit cards of a man referred to in an arrest report only by the initials “KG.”

KG, who lives in Boynton Beach, told police that he met a woman — later identified as Stepp — at the gastropub called The Office in Delray Beach on Nov. 22 and brought her back to his apartment where they “hung out for an hour or so.”

At some point,

KG fell asleep and when he woke up about 3:30 a.m., Stepp was gone and so was his his Rolex and two debit cards later used for charges of more than $500 at a WalMart outside of West Palm Beach, the arrest report said.

When investigators watched the store’s security surveillance video of the woman making the purchases, she was wearing KG’s flip flops and T-shirt.

Detectives were led to Stepp, who lives in Stuart, earlier this month after a confidential source indicated she had been arrested by the Palm Beach County

Sheriff’s Office for another Rolex theft that happened around mid-November 2018.

In that case, Stepp is accused of stealing a Rolex watch worth more than $42,000 from a man at Monroe’s of Palm Beach, an adult nightclub just outside West Palm Beach. He told deputies that the woman he was with asked to try on his gold Rolex Yacht-Master II watch and then said she had to use the bathroom. The club’s surveillance video showed her leaving through the establishment’s same membersonly door that she and the alleged victim had entered from.

“The female is then captured standing at the bathroom for a second, pressing the exit button to unlock the entry/exit door at which time she then walks out of the club,” an arrest report said.

Along with the surveillance video, Stepp was linked to the 2018 case because, outside the club, she got into a BMW in which a man “known as a trouble maker around the club scene” was riding, according to the report. That man hasn’t been charged in the case, but the alleged victim told investigators he knows that person and believes he “set the whole incident up.”

It wasn’t possible to determine Monday if either Rolex has been recovered.

Stepp was booked into the Palm Beach County Jail Thursday on a larceny charge and was being held on a bond of $5,000, records show.
