Deputies searching for Annette Blackwell in connection to a theft case say they've filed more charges agains the Inman woman.
While attempting to serve an arrest warrant at a trailer on Island Ford Road, deputies say they discovered equipment and chemicals used to make meth. While they didn't find Blackwell, they are now charging her with the manufacture and distribution of methamphetamines. The trailer is not the suspect's home. Deputies say it was a former address of the suspect.
Blackwell is wanted in connection with recent mailbox thefts.
Deputies say Annette Blackwell, 29, has been taking mail for months. Deputies say she drives around in disguise, in an SUV topped with a yellow light, that looks like a mail carrier. Then, they say, she uses resident's account information to forge her own checks.
Deputies nearly stopped the whole scam, when they caught up with Blackwell Wednesday. She took off, ditching her fake mail carrier car.
In a house covered in Christmas cheer, Zenith Schrimsher hasn't lost her's even though deputies say she's been a victim of mail theft. "I love Christmas," the Boiling Springs resident says. "They called me at work. It was Tuesday," Schrimsher says. "They told me I was overdrawn on my account. I said there's no way. No way." More than $4000 was missing from the grandmother's account. "She cleaned me out," says Schrimsher. "Not even a dollar left!"
A background check on Blackwell reveals the Inman woman was arrested for possession of meth and released on $5,000 bond in February.
