WALDORF, Md. – An 18-year-old Towson resident, Makenzie Amara Earle, is facing charges of malicious destruction of property following an incident at the Waldorf Market Place on July 30, 2024. According to police reports, Charles County authorities were called to the Super Beauty store in Waldorf after receiving reports of theft and significant damage to store property.
Officer Johnson, who responded to the scene, located two individuals near the market area—Earle and another individual, Elise Nicole Holland. Inside the store, officers found multiple display items knocked over and damaged, with the total damage being approximately $57.

Another fun day at the Market Place ! This one gonna be a little expensive ….but probably not cause they’ll get a public defender and we’ll all pay for it .
Was looking for a Super Beauty, but only see ‘Smash’ & ‘Grab’. Which one is which?
What makes young people think that it’s okay to destruct other people’s property and steal what doesn’t belong to you ? If there’s no repercussion now, then that will lead to a life of crime thinking it’s ok. They need to learn and lesson and be punished. Work off their debt to society.
They should not have waited until they were 18 years old. If they had done this last year when they were 17, it would have been swept under the rug as juveniles. Of course, in Charles County, that may happen anyway.
What ever happened to getting a JOB and WORKING like everyone else?
Oh just let them go. You know they’ll get off with barely a slap on the wrist. Next time too.
