A Jefferson woman was arrested in Winder Thursday night after being detained in the parking lot of the local YMCA by one of her alleged theft victims.

According to a Winder Police Department press release, a man at about 7:30 p.m. Sept. 27 discovered on his vehicle’s front seat an iPhone that didn’t belong to him. He took the phone inside the Y and was in the process of turning it in at the front desk when two things happened. First, his wife called his cell phone to tell him she had just called police after discovering several items missing from their vehicle. Then a frantic woman ran into the lobby, grabbed the phone from the victim, and ran out of the building.

“Suspecting that this female could be the same person who had also taken his belongings, Tubbs ran after the woman and restrained her in the parking lot until police arrived,” the press release states.

The alleged thief, 38-year-old Raemonda Inscho, told police she was “just trying to feed her children,” but police found in her car — which was parked in a handicapped space in the parking lot off Brad Akins Drive — a “make-up bag that contained a large quantity of a crystal-like substance that field tested positive for methamphetamine.”

After Inscho indicated there was stolen property in her car’s trunk, police used her keys to open it and Tubbs quickly identified several items that belonged to him. Police towed the woman’s car to the police department and found in bags dozens of driver’s licenses, credit and debit cards, cell phones, GPS devices, and other items.

Inscho allegedly admitted to stealing items from 12 autos, but police found evidence of even more thefts. She appeared to be under the influence of a narcotic but claimed the drugs found in her car had been left there by someone else.

She is being held in the Barrow County Detention Center on one count each of entering auto, possession of a controlled substance with the intent to distribute, and possession of drug-related objects.

However, police ask any other victims of recent thefts from autos to contact their respective law enforcement agencies in Barrow, Jackson, Banks, Clarke and Oconee counties. Those agencies are working with Winder police in attempting to locate other possible victims based on the addresses found on the driver’s licenses that were recovered.

Winder victims are asked to contact detective Greg Teatino at 678-425-6873.

So I wonder where the "legalize drugs" crowd is with their arguement that druggie heads don't hurt nobody?

All drugs should be decriminalized. A person should not go to prison for ingesting something the goverment doesnt like. Actually the government is the biggest importer of drugs into this country. How do you think that poppy gets from the fields of Afghanistan to your street. You really think the hood rats who cant even afford a car have thoes international connections. No just like fast and furious the goverment is the problem. They ship in the drugs then declare a "war on drugs" as a pretext to take away your freedoms. We have been fighting a war on drugs for 70 years It has only gotten worse. What is it called when you do the same thing over and over expecting a diffrent result. First the goverment tells you, you cant ingest this substance. Next thing you know they will be telling us what size soft drink we can have, what you can and cannot eat. Oh I am sorry they already are.

then other persons prone to victimize others, most people who do crimes to others are not even drug related... sorry but it isnt the drug issue that makes one a thief... it is the inherent greed and wanting to covet things one does not have.
it is just as bad as the envy the drug enforcement crowd uses to further punish persons already in dysfunctional area of society. sorry but making crimes worse due to someone being on not prescribed drugs is a witchhunt, the same folks who would commit a crime and be on the SAFE govt sanction drug companies prescription would not face extra charges and threat of loss of liberty just for taking the SAFe govt approved drugs.
oh but it is easier to point to the horrible cocaine fiends while using those bad drug folks as pretext to no knock warrants, random stop and search efforts, random PAPERS PLEASE requests.......
Freedom would entitle someone to make errors to ones self, provide open market rather preffered marketts for those Govt Approved few........ and using Govt employees to extort conformity when people otherwise doing no harm to others would use drugs is just wrong.

well said. Prescription drug abuse far exceeds "illegal" drug use. The diffrence is most of the prescription drug abusers are white middle to upper middle class people. Everytime you see a pain clinic just think that is a crack house sanctioned by the state and protected by the blue thugs.

If you weren't so stupid you'd be funny.

Is that all you got for an argument, weak. Look if you dont like drugs dont do them. Alcohol is legal are you a drunk? Alcohol causes more death and destruction than all illegal and prescription drugs. Should we ban alcohol? What about vehicals? Guns? Fatty foods? Here is a plan when you get up in the morning call 911 have police come to your home and fix you a proper meal approved by the state. Then they can walk you out to your car buckle you in. Follow you to work make sure you follow all the traffic laws.They can just stay with you all day and keep you safe even from yourself,because god knows the state and their enforcers know whats best for you.

Please read this s-l-o-w-l-y so your pot induced brain has a chance to comprehend....

When one's addiction affects the community at large, as in stealing other folks property in order to support said addiction. Which at this point your argument for legalization loses all crediblity. And most if not all thefts occuring here Barrow county can be traced back to the drug trade and to suggest otherwise is just naive and narrow minded. This statement has been made by both Sheriff Smith and Chief Dorsey.

Do you really believe that if meth and crack were legalized today that all the meth and crack heads would all of a sudden become productive citizens by getting a job and keeping it in order to pay for their "legal" meth and crack? More than likely not, multiple studies have shown that addicts will continue to victimize the community by stealing anything that they can get their hands on in order to support their "legal" addiction. The bottom line is: no matter if their drug of choice is legal or not they will remain criminals.

Before instructing others on the speed at which they should read, you should seek rememdial instruction on how to write something called a "sentence." You know, a device containing a subject and a predicate. Grammar, apparently, is a more mind-blowing concept than drugs, at least as far as you are concerned.

#1.2.2.1.1.1.1 Mike M. on 10/11/12 at 09:23 AM [Reply]

Fail... pretty sure you meant to say REMEDIAL. Not real sure what REMEMEDIAL is.

#1.2.2.1.1.2 sovrncitzn on 10/09/12 at 04:13 PM [Reply]

Let me put my joint out. Ok when someones addiction affects the public in a negative way the substance they are addicted to should be made illegal? So what do you want to get rid of first alcohol or cars?

#1.2.2.1.1.2.1 Mike M. on 10/10/12 at 12:46 PM [Reply]

Yep, good luck with that one. I'm sure you'll get real far with that idea.

Thats not in the City of Winder....it would be illegal for Winder to stop people leaving the Moose Club

Hey Anon Thanks for that. I guess when you turn right out of the Moose Lodge you dont go right through Winder City Limits. They have bulit the Winder bypass after all.

#3.1 Anon on 10/07/12 at 07:24 PM [Reply]

And when folks leave other bars and come thru Winder, the Winder PD can pull them over. Whats your point? Winder cant sit up outside the Moose club just like they cant other bars
