18 Wayne County students charged with felonies in senior prank
Eighteen felony arrest warrants have been issued for Wayne County High School students — apparently graduating seniors — “after a prank went too far,” according to a post on the Wayne County sheriff’s Facebook page.
Sheriff Tim Catron and prosecutors were not at their offices Friday afternoon and did not return telephone calls.
But the sheriff’s social media post said the office’s School Resource Deputy Adam Dodson obtained 15 arrest warrants for felony first-degree criminal mischief for the students who are 18. The same charges were placed against three juveniles. The charges followed an investigation into reports that Wayne County High School in Monticello was damaged in excess of $1,000 on May 26.
Wayne County High School Principal Justin Alley said school officials didn’t file the charges. He wouldn’t comment on whether he thought felony charges should have been filed.
But he said he got an estimate Friday from a cleaning company that confirmed the $1,000 in damages.
