Mitchell Busted On Burglaries

On July 28, 2004, Investigators with the Hendry County Sheriffs Office have
added two additional charges on Jefferson Dain Mitchell.

On July 19, 2004, in the early morning hours, an alarm was received from
the R and R Lounge. Upon the arrival of law enforcement, it was discovered
that a window had been broken, however, there did not appear to be any
signs of entry.

Later, Investigators received information that Mitchell had been involved.
Mitchell admitted to Investigators that he did go to the R and R Lounge
located on US 27, broke the window and entered the business. When Mitchell
was unable to locate any currency within the business, he fled the building.

Investigators have charged Mitchell with one count of burglary and one
count of criminal mischief. Jefferson Mitchell was arrested last week on
two counts of burglary to Joe's Pizza on Flaghole Road and two counts of
grand theft. He is currently being held in the Hendry County Jail on
$84,000.00 bond.
