Who is Crystal Godwin?
Where did she embezzle from?
WOW, way to go crystal i am sure your grand-kids are proud of you.
are we supposed to know this person?
I know her she works at the old west and Uniforms Unlimited.......Unreal.
help some of us not in the know out! who is she? whee she stealing from?
This town is full of women embezzlers. If you own a business and haven't had one it is only because you haven't caught them yet.
Guarantee she was stealing from the old west or her other job, the family has a history of stealing.
Uniforms unlimited ! Good ! Always thought her crap didn't stink and was better than anyone else ! Guess u were with someone else's money !
Karma for you Crystal there are a lot of people who had dealings with you that are cheering right now.
She was fired approximately a year ago from Uniforms Unlimited for this embezzlement. I am so surprised this is just now getting out.
She married a guy from Pocomoke. His previous wife committed suicide several years ago in Hebron.
I remember her working at Uniforms Unlimited wearing teen ager clothes and trying to show off her body. She was old and she wasn't all that. Dirt Bag!!
Wow Crystal, people seem to know you pretty well on here. I know your watching and hope you learned something from all this. I doubt jail time would do anything for you, but paying back people you stole from might.
the landlord at chestnut manor in Delmar was fired for the same reason Joe, last week

She really screw up, but it the kids that are really going to suffer. Quit being so cruel and think about what they are feeling.
It is a shame...she has always been so nice to me and is very attractive.
It takes a really deceitful and awful person to steal from Uniforms Unlimited. The owners are the nicest people in the world. I'm sure if Crystal was that desperate for money they would have helped her out if she had come to them. She deserves what she gets.
it seems like I hear a story like this in the paper...and frankly the amounts I hear about are usually pretty trivial. it's not like they are doing this to run away to Brazil or something. I can't figure it out.
Some of you are really cruel people. I've known her since she was a little kid. She's been a nice person too. Sounds like she made a terrible mistake. Thank God for second chances. Hope some of you get one if you ever make a mistake too. Hope it all works out Crystal.
deliberately taking something that doesn't belong to you is not a MISTAKE. It is a crime. If there was some kind of evidence that came out that said "oops, Crystal just screwed up the books," she might get fired but no one would think she was a thief.
what do you want to see...if you go to court and tell the judge that Crystal is a really nice person, do you think all the charges should be dropped? The people she (allegedly) stole from might have a different opinion about her "niceness."
I'm not against second chances but those come AFTER consequences and contrition.
How can a girl so hot be so bad
just remeber if a person will lie to you they will steal from you.
The Owners of Uniforms Unlimited trusted this person
as an employee and as a good friend. It is disgusting to steal from anyone , especially people who treated you like family and not an employee.
You reap what you sew!
Shame On You!
Second chance?? She should of stoped maybe after the second or third time. No one has ever done anything about it. Justice was finally served!! It is very sad her family has to go through all this embarrassment.
538....
Tell me where u live I have some crackheads that need some property/cash.
Really, i don't think u know what u r talking about!!!!!!
Second chances? Anyone who knows her knows she is rotten to the core. Probably be a gang leader in prison.
Girl? She is 44
Well its apparent you don't know her!
She is one of the nicest people I know! She loves her family and should not have to go through this! People make mistakes as I'm sure everyone of you has to some nature. Let's not be so fast to point fingers! Second changes are there for a reason and if anyone deserves it it's her!! Best wishes to you crystal, we are supporting you!!
Eleanor Roosevelt once said: "Great minds discuss ideas; Average minds discuss events; Small minds discuss people.
This is not the first time she stole thousands from her employer. This is just the first time she was arrested and charged. Many are caught, but few are ever prosecuted because of the trouble you have to go through. She chose the wrong folks to mess with. Jimmy and Annette have worked hard for everything they have and have an active hand in the business. They have miles of video evidence and many customers have come forward to tell of the experiences they had with Crystal. To make things worse the footage revealed several inappropriate meetings with men other than her husband while working.She has a sickness and thats sticky fingers. Put her away.

The same way that someone like you can walk upright but crawls on his belly.
A wolf in sheep's clothing. This was her second chance little do a lot of you know. The owners considered her FAMILY and instilled their TRUST in her. Her family was their family and it is just sad that she took full advantage and total disregard for that relationship. She gets what she gets should have thought about the consequence's previously; or while she was bashing people on this very website saying " you know people are just stupid " well look in the mirror Crystal.
Big deal! , Obama has stolen the country , who did anything about that? answer is as follows : nothing has been done and nothing will be done.
whose fault is it that she is going through this?
that's a fine quote. Let's discuss an idea: taking responsibility for one's actions and how it has disappeared in our society.
1121 you are discussing people....Hypocrite.
Let ye without sin cast the first stone. I'm well aware that consequences should be given to her for her actions, But, I wonder what Christ would have done if he had crossed paths with Crystal in the times of the bible. Like when Jesus was confronted with the mob who wanted to stone a woman for her crimes, He never said a word....only write in the sand...and they ALL dropped their stones and left. I wonder what He would write in the sand about ALL of you casting judgment on her. As far as Crystal goes.....I KNOW that JESUS died for her, just as he did for ALL of us. Be careful what you say! For one day WE ALL WILL STAND BEFORE HIM AND ANSWER FOR EVERYTHING WE HAVE DONE IN THIS LIFE!!! Crystal, if you are reading this, PLEASE KNOW THAT EVEN THROUGH THIS, GOD LOVES YOU! He in NO WAY condones these things that you are being accused of. BUT, HE DOES STILL LOVE YOU. I don't know where you are spiritually, but i DO KNOW that even now CHRIST is calling out to you. If you have done the things you are accused of, I hope that you have learned a valuable lesson. I also hope that God protects your family and you through this and that your eyes are opened to see His care for you.
And then we came back to reality. She deserves jail time!
The inappropriate meetings part is true. First hand knowledge here.
10:43 Great response - its human to make mistakes and judge others. I personally believe she has done this, our system just allows this to continue to happen with out punishment.
In the end, personal responsibility is gone. If she is honest admits it, I would give her credit. If she fights it with some piece of crap Lawyer... Then the stone is the way to go.
This might be the last straw! She was fired from Top City several years ago for stealing THOUSANDS of dollars, but I understand her parents bailed her out.
Too bad for her children that she's such a lousy role model. She's nothing but a manipulative liar and thief.
Don't talk about the grandkids....your very immature for even saying that
Her stealing thousands from top city is very true and her family did bail her out, she has had plenty of chances.

WTF are you talking about!!
You must be one of those Bible thumping hypocrites who was a criminal before you found Jesus.
Please take your Bible thumping garbage somewhere else. Real Christians don't have to force this crap down everyone's throat.
Think about the children before you post things like this.
If you don't know, you don't need to know.
Daddy may have bailed her out but doesn't have a thing to do with her otherwise. The only reason he has done so more than once is due to his work reputation. His girlfriend is her age. Great role model.
Wow 2:18 good for you, right on.
I'm sure if you asked her children they would tell you else wise! She loves her girls as well as they love her. Let's keep the kids out of this!!!
I agree! She is a wonderful grandmother that's for sure!!

What are you doing trying to hijack this thread. We aren't talking about Obama we are talking about Crystal Morris Godwin. She stole from 2 good people trying to run a mom and pop uniform store. These people were kind enough to employee her and give her a job and she steals from them.
A thief is a thief and she isn't a nice person.
Who cares if she loves her kids!
Who cares if she is a wonderful grandmother.
She is a lying, back stabbing thief and she needs to go to jail.
By the way she hasn't been a grandmother for long so how do you know she is a wonderful grandmother? Because you are related to her and coming to her defense?
And I agree with 2:18 PM.
No one is perfect, and say what you want about her alleged crimes but Crystal is still a human being and your personal feelings aside you should all have the decency to think of her children and grandchildren before you open your mouths. Think if you would want strangers airing your dirty laundry to your kids before you post some of the things I have seen posted here! Crystal- we are here for you and will love and support you and your family!!
Shes been a grandmother for four years, if anyone knows her she loves those kids!! So funny everyone is pointing fingers!!

Alleged? Have you lost your freaking mind? She was busted because as someone indicated earlier they had miles of film footage of her committing the crime. They also have in the same footage her screwing around on her husband, Brooks Godwin.
If she was such a great human being she wouldn't have stolen from the real human beings that gave her a job and a chance. If she was a real human being she wouldn't have cheated on her husband.
You one or 2 people coming on her defending her are idiots.
A thief is a thief.
Is this Daddy who posted the Bond for Crystal Morris Godwin....Again?

@ 8:28 who cares what u have to say she is a good grandmother
Watch what you say! Her children are able to see this. You're being very belligerent.
Don't point fingers if yours aren't clean.
Remember, we are in America. "Innocent until proven guilty"
Awwww....how nice daddy bailed her out of trouble again. Maybe daddy shoud stop and let his girl be accountable for her actions for a change, maybe just maybe then she might learn!
Maybe she should have been worried about her children and how this would affect them before she committed the crime. Her actions are what brought this all on. She has no one to blame but herself. People are angry because they hate a thief.

So what if her children read this they are adults. I am sure they already know that their mother is trash and a thief. They need to read these comments so quit defending the criminal.
Well put. Blame the person who did wrong and not everyone else.
Pathetic. I feel sorry for him.
She has a 13 year old & a 15 year old, they aren't adults. And they wouldn't appreciate someone one bashing their mother on here.
He has no girlfriend. And he's always there for Crystal. Shows how much you know!!!
I feel sorry for you, considering you have nothing better to do than sit her and bash a loving mother, grandmother & wife!!
Not well put! Innocent until proven guilty!
@9:50p.m.- Just to let you know Crystal did not post this comment, but a family member did. And I say alleged because everyone is innocent until proven guilty! And I posted my comments to show my support for her, no matter what the outcome. I can only hope, that everyone posting nastiness on here shows that much energy the next time a child in Salisbury is abused, or there is a or another shooting....
Not quite sure as to why any if you are bringing her father into this! Same thing with her children and grandchildren. Watch what you say & who you say it about!
For all of you who're bashing Crystal, make sure your hands are clean before pointing fingers. I'm sure you all have made a mistake some point in your life. You're none perfect especially if you're sitting herTALKING ABOUT SOMEONE! Very small minded . . .
i believe in that too...but apparently they have her on tape.
I'm sure she loves her kids. How about trying to be a good example for them.
I don't know...if you're 44 years old you should be able to figure out stealing is wrong.
why...are you planning on hunting the poster down or something? Maybe you could go after the cops, judge and states attorney for messing with Crystal because she "made a mistake."
if you all want to support your family member/friend, perhaps you need to do it somewhere other than the comments section of a blog. Yeah, I know I'm "none perfect" (nice grammar) but I wouldn't want people who claimed to support me making fools of themselves in public.
What has to be done, will be done. Good day to you, immature fool.
That's a bunch of hype. All talk. Have ANY of you personally seen the tapes? No.
According to the charges she had been doing this from 2007-2012. I hardly call 5 years of embezzeling money from a business a "mistake"!
Show me your proof.
It's right in Maryland case search, if you are bright enough to figure out how to use it.. The state's attorney has to have known about this for a while.
She worked for watermans on snow hill rd maybe that's why Lee went out of business!
Lee didn't go out if business, he didn't have his liquor license! Speak what you KNOW, not what you THINK!
You have to have money to pay your taxes before you can renew your business license and liquor license. When small businesses have employees like Crystal stealing their money you can't pay your bills. Lee didn't need a liquor license to be open for business he just would not have sold liquor.

Who gives a flying F#$% about her being a loving mother, grandmother & wife. The bottom line is she is a f#$%ing THIEF and that outweighs her being a loving mother. Remember she got caught on tape steeling money. Remember on that tape she got caught doing something she wasn't supposed to be doing with another man. So much for your statement about her being a loving wife.
SHE IS A THIEF, SHE IS A CRIMINAL! SHE NEEDS TO GO TO JAIL! PERIOD!!

You are an idiot so quit hijacking this thread and making it sound like she is such a loving character and we need to focus on other criminals. Please face it you clown your relative is a criminal. She will be convicted because there is overwhelming proof. Oh don't forget she had sex with someone other than her husband on the film. Guess what, I saw the video. She is BUSTED!

We aren't making fools of ourselves. The ones bashing her are showing how idiotic and childish they are.
June 14, 2013 at 2:31 PM
No dude, you are the one that is idiotic and childish. Your defending that thief by saying she is such a loving Saint makes you look pathetic. Most of us tax paying citizens and small business owners want Crystal Morris to serve time in jail and think about what she did wrong. The victims you seem to forget about are the owners of Uniforms Unlimited that lost thousands of dollars because of that stupid thief. They are the real victims. You need to get a life!
So she stole from Top City, Waterman's and now Uniforms Unlimited. So much for her being a loving mom.
Where else has she worked and stole from? She was fired about a year ago from Uniforms Unlimited so where has she been working since then?

You're obviously making assumptions, Crystal never stole money from Watermans. And there's not any proof that she stole it from Uniform

She didn't steal anything from Waterman's because you said so? You are a nut job.
There is no proof she stole from Uniforms Unlimited? Have you forgotten about the video? You are a nut job.
And your obviously off your rocker there is video for years on her stealing.
Yea she was a loving on other men behind uniforms unlimited I know that first hand..... Literally
really, whoever keeps coming on here acting like all these charges are a load of crap seems to forget that an indictment is not issued without some pretty convincing evidence. is it enough to convict her? that's up to the jury. but stop acting like this woman is an angel. the only victims here are the people who she stole from.
all of this noise makes me wonder if the folks defending her got some of the cash.

June 15, 2013 at 5:32 PM
BINGO!! Some of us aren't that stupid!!
I agree with 5:40 PM as well.
Or snorted watermans out of business
Some of you morons forget this isn't about Crystal Morris Godwin being a loving mother it is about her being a back stabbing, conniving thief. She is a criminal and her family should be prepared for here to see some jail time.
The servers at Watermen's had to carry their own bank and ring up sales under their employee password, so how could she have stolen from there?
At the end of the day the servers owed what sales they had rang up and any voids would have been reflected on the end of the close out from the computer print out. Any abundance of voids would cause any business owner to be suspect.
Not defending her arrest, just stop grasping for straws when you have no idea how that system works.
Wow, the things i've read on here have really shown that our society is nothing but crap now. You people dont know how to act like adults. I'm probably the youngest person posting on here and the most mature. That's sad. Yes, the woman stole money and she will get a trial. It's none of your business what happens to her or what she does in her personal life. You act like she's the first person to steal money. Everyone is always in someone else's personal business, mind your own people!

No she did not make a "mistake." A "mistake" is when you accidently pick up and use the salt shaker when you meant to pick up the pepper.
If this is true, then she made a calculated decision to steal which is not only morally wrong but against the law. Make no "mistake" that decision wasn't a mere "mistake." She chose to do it and did it.
And a thief as well. She must not be that wonderful..way to teach your grandchildren how to make a decent living...disgusting.
Actually her family DOES HAVE A HISTORY OF STEALING...u must be a member.
Crystal.should of thought about her children..not me
LOL!!!!
Gees how many times do.u make the same mistake. 5 yrs worth...
The owner of the OLD WATERMANS screwed a lot of people out of MONEY ESPECIALLY when he took peoples money for gift certificates for mothers day and was CLOSED before mothers day.......KARMA caught up to lee ,he ended up selling used cars,got divorced, lost his house ect ect, now he works at BackStreet grille, as a Pt Day Manager.
o your such a better person...talking about how a little kid is gonna grow up.... maybe your mother should of taught you how to grow up and be a man or woman and not be a piece of junk low life talking about little kids .
So your disgusting get a life and grow up
I'd point fingers at the bartender there!!!
I think she is a waitress at old west steak house we went there the other night for dinner and saw her. How could a business owner know what she is being charge with and still allow her to work there? That might hurt business old west!!
Just give the people what they want huh?
wow 115 comments on this? I didn't read them all, just the bottom half.
Some seem to know her personally, and at least one, intimately. Some like her, others don't.
The ones that don't like her are very mean and cruel. I hope you never make a mistake and are put on public display. I doubt any of you could handle what you are dishing out.
Seems to be something else going on here than her simply stealing money. No one is hated that much for taking some cash.
Anyway, I hope your horns keep your halos level.
Why do people call this a "mistake"? She had five years of embezzeling to learn from this "mistake" and correct it by stopping what she was doing. That wasn't a mistake at all! Let her tell that to the judge or jury.
I think this characterization of her actions as a "mistake" is what's keeping people angry and keeping the comments going.
I don't know this woman from Adam/Eve, but if she did what she is charged with, IT IS NOT A MISTAKE. It is a CRIME. She is a middle aged woman, she is fully responsible for her actions...which, if the charges are true, have hurt some good people badly.
Stop making excuses for her and think about the rage and grief her victims must have felt when they found out they were being betrayed.
8:46, Very well said!
It is never a mistake--it's a choice!!!!
She made the wrong one hundreds of times.
Lock her up and throw away the key
I'm glad you know soooo much about the Morris family!
My husband and I knew Crystal when she worked @ Uniforms Unlimited where we both bought uniforms, she was always very curteous and would speak of her children & grand children she was always nice. I also knew her as a patient @ at a dental practice where I worked, I am sorry for the situation she is in and will pray for her and hope she gets another chance, and that she turns her life around.
Everyone is worried about "her children"... Too late! The example she set for them is who they already are. LIARS.
So tell me exactly which one of her kids is a liar.
Btw those inappropriate meetings were with some of law enforcements finest! She's not as innocent as she wants some of on here to think! Karma has finally caught up with her n this time maybe she will do the time for the crime.
I know first hand that she has always been a thief. As well as her children. And the two grandchildren are great kids and will be better off without knowing her. She has always been involved in illegal actions. She is great at being two faced and lying to her family. Karmas a bitch, and I don't feel sorry for her at all. Uniforms unlimited should get their money back and send her to jail.
