Drexel University professor Mariana Chilton is one of three women accused of stealing pro-Israel signs from a temple and home in Lower Merion Townshipis one of three women accused of stealing pro-Israel signs from outside a synagogue and a home in Lower Merion Township, Pennsylvania , last year.

When the officer asked all three women for their identification, they allegedly became uncooperative and asked him why he needed their information. On Nov. 27, 2023, at 9:33 a.m., the officer responded to the 500 block of Manor Road in Wynnewood for a report of a theft. The homeowner, Stephen Chopnick, told the officer he noticed someone had stolen his two “We Stand With Israel” signs from his front yard and he had last seen them four days earlier. Investigators later determined those two signs were the same signs that were found inside Chilton’s vehicle, according to the criminal complaint.

Prickett and Penn are both charged with theft by unlawful taking – movable property, receiving stolen property and criminal trespassing.
