Community Spotlight: Sheriff’s Office Seeks Assistance
As we enjoy today’s pleasant weather, let’s shift our focus to an important issue in our community. The Greenwood County Sheriff’s Office is reaching out for your help in locating an individual named Kit Young. Sheriff Dennis Kelly is leading the efforts to resolve this situation. It’s a story that impacts several local families and their estates.
Here’s the scoop: Kit Young is alleged to have held auctions to sell items on behalf of these families. However, it seems he might have forgotten the crucial step of returning the proceeds from those auctions. As a result, he is facing serious charges—three counts of breach of trust with fraudulent intent. Two of these charges involve amounts under $10,000, while one relates to a whopping sum exceeding $10,000.
It’s been mentioned that these sales were conducted in the latter part of 2023 and early 2024. This means there are several people affected, and they need closure and justice. The Sheriff’s Office is doing its best, but they are calling on us—the community—for assistance. If you have any information about Kit Young’s whereabouts, your tip could be valuable. You’re encouraged to contact the authorities by dialing 911, 1-888-CRIME-SC, or the local Sheriff’s Office at 864-942-8600.
