Sheldon enters home without owner’s okay; facing charges

LAFOLLETTE, TN. (WLAF)- Jessica Kimberly Sheldon is facing charges after she allegedly broke into a home.

Campbell County Sheriff’s Deputy Jason Shears responded to a call last Thursday in the Bethlehem Rd and Lynch Hollow Rd area about a suspicious female who had allegedly been trespassing. Shears went to a home located at the end of a long driveway and spoke with the homeowner. Once at the home, the homeowner said a woman was in his kitchen, and he did not know her, according to a report from the sheriff’s department.

The homeowner reported the female, later identified as Sheldon, entered his home through the front door talking incoherently. She then went into the kitchen and began breaking drawers and shelves in his refrigerator.

Deputy Shears found Sheldon and she appeared to be intoxicated from an unknown intoxicant. Sheldon, 36, 216 Pine Hollow Rd, Jacksboro was charged with aggravated criminal trespassing and vandalism. (WLAF NEWS PUBLISHED 04/07/2023- 6AM)
