Sheriff’s Investigators nab wanted man


web posted March 27, 2009
EDGEFIELD – Edgefield County Sheriff’s Investigators arrested a wanted man Thursday at the Amoco Station as he prepared to get gas at the Main Street store Thursday around 1 pm. Daniel Russell Reel, 57, was arrested without incident after confirmation of a warrant for his arrest in Saluda County for a false report of a stolen US Treasury check being cashed in Saluda County - a check that he also reported stolen in a report of a burglary at his home on Hunters Run in Edgefield on February 5 of this year.

In a report carried by EdgefieldDaily.com, Reel told Sheriff’s Investigators that an unknown person or persons burglarized his home stealing $5,826 in various household items including a Glock handgun and the check for over $2,000.

The investigation lead to the discovery that a third party had cashed the check at the behest of Mr. Reel and the money was returned to him, resulting in the warrant for his arrest by Saluda County.

The reported burglary of his home is still under investigation.

Mr. Reel is already facing similar charges in Edgefield County after a report he filed against a complainant of a near $50,000 criminal breech of trust case against him. In that case Reel called to report the victim in the breech of trust case came into his home and robbed and assaulted him. When the charges were found to be false, he was arrested.

Reel was in court in February when Judge Knox McMahon removed the Public Defender from Reel’s case when it was discovered he owned over 100 acres of land with a clear title, a home, and had income sufficient, in the court’s eyes, to provide for his own defense in the cases pending against him.

Edgefield County Sheriff’s Chief Investigator Randy Doran said a second charge of filing a false police report in Edgefield County could be pending against Mr. Reel pending discussions with the Solicitor’s Office.
