EMPHASIS: Felony Theft Arrest


Captain Kyle Marquart, Director of the Division of Drug and Crime Control, announces the results of a theft investigation in Chariton County, Missouri.

On Monday, May 14, 2012, Tammy Sue Littleton, 46, of Keytesville, Missouri was arrested on a Chariton County warrant for two counts of felony stealing. The arrest is a result of an investigation conducted by members of the Missouri State Highway Patrol's Division of Drug and Crime Control regarding the theft of funds from the Chariton County Soil and Water District and the Keytesville Athletic Boosters. Littleton was held in the Chariton County Jail pending release on a $75,000 cash only bond.

The above charges are mere accusations and are not evidence of guilt. Evidence in support of these charges must be presented before a court of competent jurisdiction whose duty is to determine guilt or innocence.
