Manager of Business Arrested for Theft
When the owner of a business in the 200 block of Hillcrest discovered a $19,000 shortage for 2017, the owner began taking note of the daily activities of the business and found about $20,000 missing since the first of the year. The manager of the business was making deposits but no cash was deposited during the normal scheduled deposits. Checks and credit card deposits had been made. Hopkins County Sheriff’s investigators were contacted.
Investigators Corley Weatherford and Wade Sheets were contacted. When they questioned the manager, Delphina Christene Pickerill, 45, of Yantis, she admitted to stealing cash from the business stating she was upset due to not receiving a raise and was facing financial hardships. Investigators noted she was in possession of a Michael Kors purse valued at over $300. She admitted the amount taken to be more than $5,000 but less than $10,000. However, the owner has initial estimates at about $20,000.

Join the Fight Against Child Exploitation By Taking Easter Photos
Redeeming Zoe Team members: Hunter Elliott, Mattison Perry, Leesha Hartley, Elizabeth Russell and Cowboy the Rabbit
Redeeming Zoe is an organization that fights child exploitation in the Philippines. They will be out on Celebration Plaza today, March 30th, until 6pm, and tomorrow, March 31st from 10am-6pm for their 3rd annual event “Photos for Freedom”. This event focuses on taking photos for the good, and showing positive family examples.
Notre Dame (brown) and Cotton Ball (white and brown)
Notre Dame, and Cotton Ball are just two of the Bunny Rabbits you can pose with for your Easter Photos. In addition to the Easter photo shoots, Redeeming Zoe is also selling T-shirts, and has a 5k fun run set for April 21st: all of the proceeds will go directly to funding the missions in the Philippines.
The owners of the company: Hillary Evans and Becca Haskell are actively working with orphanages, and communities in the Philippines, and will return from their mission trip later in the year.
“Unicef recently did a study and shared that 8 out of every 10 children in the Philippines are at-risk and being exploited online through OSEC (Online Sexual Exploitation of Children). 77% of all victims are perpetrated by their parents. We want families to “pose for freedom” this year!” Redeeming Zoe stands for “to renew or redeem life”, because the organization is wanting to renew children’s lives, by sharing Christ, healing those affected and empowering families to stick together.
