Plant Stealing Hausfrau About to Get Beating of Her Life
If you watch WYFF (which I don’t because they suck) you may have seen the following video – which the owner of Roots on Augusta Road uploaded onto some crappy part of the WYFF website. Now here’s the kicker – the uploaders have not contacted police. They’re just “looking” for the woman. Something tells me that this won’t end well if she’s caught.

Police Looking for Woman Who Forged Dead Woman’s Checks

Anticula Roxanne Hughley is on the run after being found using the checks of a dead woman. No one is sure how she got access to the dead woman’s personal belongings but I”ll assume that may be why she’s on the run.
From WISTV.com:
The West Columbia Police Department is seeking information on the whereabouts of a woman who is wanted for three counts of forgery. According to Chief Dennis Tyndall, warrants have been issued for 22-year-old Anticula Roxanne Hughley. Hughey’s last known address was in Greenville, S.C., but she is believed to be living in the Columbia area.
Tyndall said that Hughey wrote three checks on the account of a deceased 87-year-old woman. The woman, Candida Datnoff, had lived at the Jenni-Lynn retirement community located at 915 Hook Avenue in West Columbia until her death in April of 2010. Tyndall is unsure of how the suspect came into possession of Ms. Datnoff’s checks.
Police are asking that anyone with information concerning this case contact the West Columbia Police Department at 803-794-0721.
Anyone with additional information on the suspect or the crime is asked to call 888-CRIME-SC or go to www.sccrimestoppers.com to receive a cash reward for information leading to the conviction of the suspect.
I’m sure some of her friends in the area may know where she’s off to. Times are tight and there are harder ways to make a living than dropping dime.
Mauldin Woman Arrested in Botched Butt Implant Procedure

Michelle Madrid Roca, who owns the oddly named Coconuk Boutique, was selling more than clothing and jewelry to her clientele. Apparently the 35-year-old was selling cut rate medical procedures performed in at least one case by a Colombian doctor she flew in but who is not licensed to practice medicine here.
On Tuesday, March 10th a woman drove down from New Jersey to have said doctor inject botox in her butt. Or that’s the story Roca is claiming because now the woman is in a coma. Doctors said her symptoms looked suspiciously similar to someone who had a silicone implant rupture in them.
From Fox Carolina:
Michelle Madrid Roca, 35, has been charged with practicing medicine without a license.
Police said Roca owns the Coconuk Boutique, which she closed recently. They said Roca arranged an illegal cosmetic procedure at her shop with a Colombian doctor who is not licensed to practice in this country.
Detective Jason Peterson said the client had an injection March 10 and was eventually taken to Greenville Memorial Hospital and is in a coma.
Peterson said the woman was injected with what was supposed to be botox. He said doctors said her symptoms were similar to silicone implants ruptures. Her name was not released.
Police said the Department of Labor, Licensing and Regulation is also involved in the investigation because of other procedures that were performed without a license at the business.
I heard that Roca has specifically targeted Latin and Central American immigrants, legal and not so legal, who are either non-English speakers or are uncomfortable with American doctors for some reason.
It reminds me of a scam in Yonkers, NY I heard of before I moved here from the Bronx. People were opening notary businesses in Hispanic areas because many of the immigrants thought a notary was a lawyer. The crooks were then charging them lawyer fees for work they weren’t qualified to do. Illegals were especially targeted because they didn’t know English and had no recourse if they did manage to find out that in America a lawyer has to do more than pay $25 and pass a test.
Anyway, the victim is still in a coma and police think there have been multiple victims of Roca and her fraudulent medical practice. Ladies, I know Coco looks great, but I’m pretty sure she didn’t get her work done in the back of a closed down thrift shop located in a strip mall. Use a real doctor if you’re getting work done.
That’s How They Got Capone!
Late last year Paula Hendricks was arrested and charged with embezzling nearly $800,000 from F.W. Tool and Die Works Inc. In her tenure as office manger she fudged the books for several years to hide her thievery. As if she wasn’t in enough trouble the South Carolina Department of Revenue is hitting her with additional charges that can land her in jail for up to 40 additional years.
BELTON — Paula K. Hendricks, a Belton resident, was arrested Friday on felony income tax charges.
South Carolina Department of Revenue investigators charged Hendricks with eight counts of income tax evasion for 2002-2009.
From 2002 through 2010, Hendricks was a bookkeeper for a local manufacturer. Through a joint investigation by investigators with the Greenville County Sheriff’s Office and the Department of Revenue, Hendricks was accused of stealing more than $800,000 from her employer, according to the state Department of Revenue.
The investigation showed Hendricks failed to report the proceeds from the theft as income on her state tax returns.
Hendricks altered her employer’s financial records to conceal the illicit payments. She is also accused of altering W-2 forms that reduced her legitimate income earned in 2008 and 2009 in attempts to further lower her tax liability.
During the period of investigation, Hendricks is accused of failing to report more than $810,000 of income. As a result, she has an outstanding tax liability of approximately $57,939.
Ha! Death and taxes Paula. Have fun in prison.
