UNION, SC (FOX Carolina) -
Union County deputies said two men stole from a Buffalo home last week while a couple was inside having sex.
Deputies said they were called to 260 Putman Rd. by Jeffrey Dyson, who said scrap metal, a chainsaw and 12-guage shotgun were stolen during a burglary. They said that a short time later, deputies stopped a vehicle on Spring Street in Union and found the shotgun inside.
Investigators said that they determined the chainsaw had been sold to someone in Jonesville, and the cash was used to buy cocaine, which was also found in the vehicle.
Deputies said that 37-year-old Angielee Wilson, of Union, 34-year-old Joseph Cochran, of Union and 40-year-old James Newton, of Buffalo, were arrested. All three were charged with first-degree burglary, petit larceny, possession of crack cocaine, theft of a controlled substance and possession of a drug paraphernalia.
After the three arrests, deputies said they determined that Dyson lied about the circumstances of the theft. They said that Dyson had engaged Wilson in sexual favors in exchange for drugs. They said that while Dyson and Wilson were having sex, Cochran and Newton stole the items.
Dyson was arrested and charged with giving false information to law enforcement and soliciting prostitution.
Wilson was also charged with prostitution.
Both Cochran and Newton were also charged with aiding and abetting prostitution.
