UPDATE: Mystery Thief Identified, Arrested

***UPDATE***
12/2/2021



ONLINE INVESTIGATORS HAVE DONE IT AGAIN

 
 
Through the public’s help, Sheriff’s Office investigators developed Brandon Sabins as a suspect. An astute Sheriff’s Office Detective came in contact with Sabins on 11/29/2021 and not being fooled by his new haircut, took him into custody.
 
Since our original post Sabins, has racked up some charges in Cleveland County as well. Hopefully after all of this is cleared up, Mr. Sabins will consider another career path.
 
Brandon Sabins was given a ride to the Rutherford County Detention Center where his outstanding warrants were hand delivered to him and he received a $62,000.00 bond.
 
 Thank you for your help and on to the next.

Okay Online Investigators, we need your help identifying the gentleman in these photos who decided to go onto someone’s front porch and steal their home surveillance camera. He was thoughtful enough to leave the camera running and video himself while leaving the victim's home, so, we do want to extend our thanks to the suspect for helping out with the identification process.
