DEPUTIES ARREST TWO FOR THEFT OF CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS

August 7, 2025

Hillsborough, NC (August 7, 2025) – Deputies with the Orange County Sheriff’s Office arrested Jason Todd Richardson and Hannah Marie Turner yesterday afternoon, charging each with felony breaking and entering, larceny after breaking and entering, and felony conspiracy. Investigators believe the Cedar Grove pair broke into a home under construction on McKee Road in Rougemont and stole construction materials on August 2, 2025.


“We shared images captured by cameras on the job site to our mobile app and socials earlier this week.  We appreciate the calls, tips, and messages we received in response,” said Sheriff Charles Blackwood. “Furthermore, we encourage construction site managers to contact our office for crime prevention tips specific to building sites and to consider our close patrol program.”


A magistrate scheduled both Richardson, 44, and Turner, 40, for their first court appearance at 2:00 pm on Friday, August 8, 2025.
