Sheriff Department Steals $55,000 Worth of Personal Property After Faking An Eviction

Tony Geren(The Pontiac Tribune) – U.S. Navy veteran Ted Visner and his wife, Kathy Smith of Mt. Pleasant, Michigan, have been living out a nightmare. It started five years ago, when the family fell victim to a real estate scam by a local sheriff’s department employee.

Ted Visner says they bought their former home on a land contract, only to learn seven months later, that the seller, Isabella County Sheriff’s Dept. employee Shelly Sweet, was not making monthly payments on the house. A bank foreclosed on the property. And while Ted’s family was away for the weekend. Shelly Sweet decided to invite all her sheriff department friends to steal everything in the house. The sheriff department conspired to steal $55,000 worth of personal property.

Visner says Sweet told her employer, the sheriff’s department that Visner and his wife weren’t making payments, while Visner is able to prove via canceled checks to Sweet that they were indeed paying. “It was blatantly untrue,” Visner added.
