Or appearing in court. Anna Featherston was arrested for passing bad checks and failure to appear a few days ago. She had owned a shop in Greenvile called Cupcake Couture which was, according to WSPA, fined at least four times by the Department of Labor for failing to pay employees. She declared bankruptcy and sold the store almost a year ago.

Then started forging checks. Sad. People who worked for her say she’s bad with money. Her mugshot makes it look more like she’s good with drugs. Tomayto/tomahto.

Cops are thinking there is no link between the incidents in Greenville and Spartanburg, but it’s odd to see these incidents crop up so suddenly.

Anyway here’s an update from GoUpstate:

The Spartanburg County Sheriff’s Office released a sketch Wednesday related to a pair of incidents in which residents reported being pulled over by a man posing as a law enforcement officer.

The sketch was developed from information provided by a victim of an incident on Old Spartanburg Highway on Monday, according to a written statement from the sheriff’s office.

The man, who is labeled a person of interest, is described as a clean-cut white male, 30 to 35 years old, with a crew-cut hairstyle. The man is reported to be 6-foot-4 to 6-foot-5 and weigh about 280 pounds — but with a muscular build. He was wearing a navy blue windbreaker and dark blue cargo pants, and driving a dark blue Chevy Tahoe with blue strobe lights in the grill, according to the statement.

Monday’s incident, which allowed officers to generate the sketch, was the second reported in Spartanburg County. The first was reported Nov. 16, when a woman said she was pulled over by a man she thought was a law enforcement officer. The man grabbed her from her car and sexually assaulted her on Nazareth Road, according to investigators.

“At this point in our investigation, there has been no evidence or information discovered that connects the two cases reported in Spartanburg County,” said Lt. Tony Ivey in a written statement issued Wednesday.

Greenville County Sheriff’s Deputy Zachary Hinton said in an email that the latest Greenville incident occurred in the Phillips and Gibbs Shoals roads area in Greer on Tuesday about 4:45 p.m.

A woman told officers she was driving down Phillips Road when she passed a black SUV, possibly a GMC Envoy. She said that the vehicle turned around and came up behind her with blue lights and a siren. The woman said the blue lights appeared to be coming from the interior of the vehicle.

The woman told officers that she tried to call law enforcement to verify the traffic stop before she pulled over but before she could, the SUV turned around and left, Hinton said.

“It is undetermined at this time if this is connected to any other incidents currently under investigation,” Greenville County Sheriff’s Deputy Zachary Hinton said.

Seems odd that multiple incidents of the same MO are happening now. If I were a cop I’d start checking if there are any new police supply shops in the area. Take a look at the sketch and be wary.

Meanwhile, Greenville County Sheriff’s deputies are investigating a reported police investigator from early Monday morning, but there’s no reason to think that incident was related to the Spartanburg incidents.

A woman says she was driving on East North Street around 2:30 a.m. when a vehicle behind her had flashing white lights in the grill.

She pulled over at Ramblewood Apartments and said the car stopped before pulling around her. She said there was no further contact, but she did see the driver of a black two-door Chevrolet Malibu.

He was described as a black man in his late 20’s who was wearing a white long sleeved t-shirt.

GCSO investigators say there’s no evidence to show this was linked to an earlier incident in the county or a previous report of an incident in Spartanburg County.

Which is definitely cause for concern since it means this is just a new scam a bunch of different crooks have come up with. Video courtesy WSPA:

Someone sent me a couple of links to some hilarious Backpage drama where a “John” who got robbed has been warning people to stay away from “Chelsea” and “Kali” who apparently took his money and ran. The fact that one of these escorts’ street name comes from the Hindu goddess of death and destruction should have been a tip off that she may not have that heart of gold fictional prostitutes are portrayed as having.

I stayed out of this because I don’t care but after i saw the latest message he left I could not resist posting it:

I am making sure that these two women go somewhere else to cheat there clients. Make no mistake guys, they have no interest in keeping their word. All they want is your money at any cost. I am the one they stole from last week. I don’t want anyone to forget that ANY alternative is better than getting your money stolen. Stay far far away. I am sacrificing a little money so you guys don’t loose . Do NOT use them. There pics could not be more untrue just like their ethics.

What? Hookers who don’t keep their word and only want money? Women who trade sex for money lacking ethics? Wow. This is a revelation!

Who is the moron who pays a hooker up front and then is shocked that she tries to get out of putting her mouth and/or crotch anywhere near his privates? I blame the schools!

Maybe this guy should learn his lesson and stop paying for sex?

Breaking news! Illegals use fraud and deception to get the documentation they need to work and collect welfare – and that often hurts other Americans and legal immigrants. I know, it’s a mid blower. Who would have though people who wouldn’t go through the proper legal channels to get into the country weren’t going to be law abiding citizens?

GREENVILLE, SC (FOX Carolina) – According to the Greenville City Police Department, a worker at a Greenville hotel was accused of using someone else’s ID to get a job because she was an illegal immigrant.

According to the warrant request form, Maria Calixto, 33, worked at the Courtyard Marriott on 50 W. Broad St. for 15 months before authorities realized she had presented a counterfeit resident alien card and gave the name Yesenia Ibarra.

The document stated that Calixto gave the last four digits of Ibarra’s social security number to be accepted by the E-Verify system.

Calixto was paid for 15 months, according to police. The victim Ibarra was notified by the Iowa state unemployment commission that her social security number was being used in South Carolina, so she could not receive unemployment benefits.

The warrant request form said that Calixto admitted in a sworn statement that she committed the offense.

She didn’t do anything wrong – just made it so someone who did come into the country legally couldn’t get unemployment when they needed it. I mean, what’s wrong with that?

The sad thing is that this is a misdemeanor which can get her a fine of no more than $100 and 30 days in jail. Her victim has no doubt spent more than $100 dealing with this nonsense. What a great system.

Here’s an impromptu interview he did with a reporter on this situation. Notice that though he claims he can’t control his impulses he also claims that he can control impulses that would land him in prison. Not to politicize this, but you’ll also notice that after being found naked with a child size doll he was nailing in public the music teacher says it’s “unfair’ for the news to cover the story. Sounds like someone thinks that there shouldn’t be consequences to his own behavior.

I guess it would also be “unfair” to mention that on his now defunct website he claimed to work at a Montessori school who told reporters they never heard of him. That seems more like a clear scheme to pad out his resume so parents will trust him than “A.D.D.” but I’m no therapist.

The news report covering this story points out something Torroll left out. This happened on the first day of school. And Torroll seems to do all his teaching of children at his house which he calls the “Danny Torroll Skool of Music and Art” which had a website that was pulled down. Any of this sounding A.D.D. related?

MAULDIN, S.C. — The head of a public utility in South Carolina says he’s amazed someone saved 10-year-old records. Now the chief of the Greenville Water System is set to apologize personally to a customer wrongly accused of not paying two water bills dating to 2001.

The utility sent past-due notices to Randy Massengale of Mauldin. Massengale says he called to say there must be a mistake, but employees refused to believe him and told him to pay up.

Massengale says he put the notices aside until a utility representative came knocking, threatening to shut off his water. But Massengale retrieved his old bank statement and check register, proving he paid a decade ago.

Utility chief executive David Bereskin called the case a fluke and promised an apology.

I believe the first sentence should have read he was annoyed to find that. I’m sure many people have had the same experience but didn’t have the meticulous record keeping of Messengale. Good for him, and a warning for the rest of us. Keep those receipts.

Ladies, if there’s one thing you don’t want to go bargain basement on it’s elective surgery. Go to a real doctor for any procedure you want and your first clue that you’re not at a real doctor is when they want to operate on you in one of their friend’s low-rent condos:

MYRTLE BEACH, S.C., June 23 (UPI) — Police in North Myrtle Beach, S.C., say they arrested three people who allegedly performed liposuction on a teen in a condominium bedroom.

Police said authorities found out about the incident when the 19-year-old woman went to Grand Strand Regional Hospital last week, complaining of dizziness, vomiting and bleeding, WYFF-TV, Greenville, S.C., reported.

The woman told police she was driven from a mall to the Ashley Park Apartments June 16, where she paid a woman $1,500. She was to pay another $1,500 the following day.

After being given several pills that left her unconscious, the teen was operated on in a bedroom. She awoke as she was being driven home.

[...]

Police issued a search warrant for the apartment and arrested and charged Miguel Orozco, 31, Nubia Trujillo, 53, and Adriana Neibles, 41, with practicing medicine without a license, assault and battery of a high and aggravated nature and accessory before the fact of a felony.

Like the recent case in Mauldin the worst part of this whole situation is how exploitative this scam is. It plays upon the victim’s ignorance of how American medical professionals work and the danger involved in even minor surgical procedures. These scum need the book thrown at them.

ModernMedicine.com *cough* scam *cough* quotes MSNBC as saying that the victim of Michelle Roca’s cut rate medical services came to South Carolina specifically to get a butt implant. Roca has maintained that the victim simply got botox injections and the victim is in a coma so she’s not arguing.

I won’t quote a communist Jihadi-loving outfit like MSNBC so I’ll use this much more credible source.

Ladies, again, professional butt implant model Coco goes to a real doctor for her work, not some guy operating out the back of a closed down jewelry store.
