“Based on the information investigators have gathered while working on the case, Stewart bought a car on Feb. 3 at a Lexington County car dealership for more than $17,000 using a fake cashier’s check and someone else’s identity,” Lexington County Sheriff Jay Koon said. “She allegedly tried to pass a fake cashier’s check for more than $42,000 on Feb. 8 at a Lexington County car dealership. The dealership contacted us when they realized the check was fake.”


Stewart was apprehended and arrested as she was heading toward Georgia, according to Koon.

“We expect to file more charges against Stewart soon,” Koon said. “She’s also wanted on similar charges in North Carolina, Georgia and Virginia.”


Stewart is being held in the Lexington County Detention Center.
