“Special thanks to our Fugitive Unit for being active and efficiently apprehending Mr. Spaulding who has 2 warrants for Felony Violation of Probation. Our Top 10 is compiled based off of the severity of the charges only. By not being on this list does not mean our Fugitive Unit is not looking for you if you have an active warrant,” they added in the post. Also, the department shared a screenshot that shows how the fugitive commented on a Facebook post by the department that eventually led to his arrest.
Under the department’s list for most wanted criminals, Spaulding wrote, “How about me.” The sheriff’s office soon dropped a reply and shared, “You are correct, you have two warrants, we are on the way.”
