Cannon Co. Woman Charged with Aggravated Burglary

A Cannon County woman who was allegedly under the influence of drugs was arrested recently for aggravated burglary.
According to Cannon County Sheriff’s Department Reports, Investigators were called to a Fowler Road residence about a possible theft. The home owner stated that the female suspect Mandy Jernigan was crawling through an open window in the living room when she was caught going through a pair of pants and wallet which were sitting next to the chair the man was sleeping in.
Jernigan had been living in a camper next to the residence. Investigators went to the trailer and after a few minutes of trying to wake Jernigan, noticed she was under the influence of some type of drug. Jernigan stated she went over to the residence to talk but that the owners would not answer the door. That’s when she noticed a window was open and pulled the screen off the window and crawled inside.
Jernigan was arrested for aggravated burglary and will answer to the charges June 7th in Cannon County General Sessions Court. (WGNS Radio)
