Here's Your Card

web posted February 20, 2007

SWEETWATER – A woman called the Sheriff’s Office around 2 am Saturday to report a man coming to her house and knocking on the doors and windows trying to get her to let him inside the home. The man was an acquaintance of the woman. When deputies arrived at the Trailside Drive home the man was gone but while deputies were talking to the woman he began calling her phone and cell phone.

The woman told deputies of ongoing problems with the man and they suggested she speak to the Magistrate’s Office for a restraining order and to contact the Sheriff’s Victims Advocate for help. While explaining the available options to the woman the man began calling. The woman answered the phone and told the man to quit calling and not to come back to the property. The man continued to call and, at different times, spoke to both deputies who also told the man to refrain from calling or coming to the property.

Undeterred by the warnings of police our Here’s Your Card winner decided he would take it upon himself to return to the woman's home. While on patrol in the area a deputy spotted the man’s car as he was trying to park it down the road from the victim’s house. The deputy approached and asked the man for some identification. He said he did not have any. A quick check of the man’s information showed his driver’s license was suspended.

At that time, Willie Chinn Jr., 34, of Pine Log Trail, Johnston was taken into custody and booked for driving under suspension. His car was towed from the scene.

EdgefieldDaily.com awards a Here’s Your Card to Mr. Chinn for not only ignoring warnings from deputies to stay away, but for driving to an area he knows officers would be looking for him on a suspended license.
