An investigation by Special Agents with the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation and deputies with the DeKalb County Sheriff’s Department has resulted in the arrest of a McMinnville woman on an arson charge.

In April, Agents were requested to join deputies with the DeKalb County Sheriff’s Department and DeKalb County Fire Department in investigating a structure fire on April 14th, in the 200 block of Lee Homer Road in Smithville. During the course of the investigation, Agents developed information that identified 47 year old Jan Winchester of Bethany Road, McMinnville as the individual responsible for setting the fire.

On November 16th, the DeKalb County Grand Jury returned an indictment charging Jan Marie Winchester with one count of Arson. She was arrested Monday and booked into the DeKalb County Jail on a $40,000 bond.

Please consider adopting an Angel today or if you have no time to shop, donations can be made at Wilson Bank or any Smithville or Alexandria bank branch and the Volunteers will do the shopping for you.
