Is this wage theft?

I work at an unnamed giant corporation. My fellow supervisors rarely take their allotted half hour breaks (I nearly always do). We have an interim manager while our manager is on a month long leave of absence. She has apparently added punches to the other supervisors’ timecards to reflect the breaks they were scheduled to take, even though they did not take them and did work during that time. One of my coworkers had 3 full hours removed from her time worked. The manager say it’s because we were “required” to take these breaks, which I believe is only true for minors in the state of NJ. Is this illegal?
