She’s a teacher? She looks like she’s 12
Check the vicinity. Halfway between Chattanooga and Knoxville (mega crime capital of Tennessee). Lot of car boosting, and parts salvage going on.
12 is a good guess for her mental age.
Something about this makes me think the police should contact the registered owner to see if they actually sold the vehicle to Miss Waldroup: “gathering documentation to get the automobile registered so that she could pick it up.”
Hmm. Break into an impound lot. Find a car with title papers in glovebox. Forge Owner’s Signature. Re-register vehicle. Pay a few hundred bucks to the lot for a car worth several thousand at least. Resell vehicle for cash. Nice scam.
