Rankin County Sheriff Bryan Bailey issued the following statement.
On Monday, April 27, 2026, deputies and investigators with the Rankin County Sheriff’s Department responded to Old Fannin Road Store & Lock located on Old Fannin Rd just outside the city limits of Flowood in reference to a theft.
When they arrived on scene, investigators developed information that Autumn Sanderford Eargle used her position as an employee of the mini-storage facility to access the storage unit of a customer and steal their belongings. The property, which included multiple electronic Apple products had an estimated value over $7,000.
Autumn Eargle was arrested for Embezzlement and transported to the Rankin County Adult Detention Center in Brandon, MS. This morning she made her initial appearance before Rankin County Court Judge David Morrow Jr. where her bond was set at $25,000.
The stolen property has been returned to its rightful owner.
Kingfish note: Well, well, well, it appears Autumn has been a bad girl in the past. Check out her indictment from 2023:
After Eargle pled guilty to possession of more than .10 g but less than 2 g of fentanyl, Rankin County Circuit Judge sentenced the defendant to three years in prison but suspended three years of the sentence on October 25, 2023.

Another loser judge that suspended a sentence so someone that should be in jail is instead out victimizing the community.
Crystal methodist? Who knew?
this woman is a career thief and hustler. she got her start at the original pops around the corner back when it was a country honky tonk run by pops sanderford.
Possession charges aren't the same as a charge of violent behavior. I don't have a problem with a person with a drug charge getting a second chance. However she blew that chance and is now headed to the clink for an extended stay.
@4:39 - couldn’t disagree more with you. We can always improve required treatment options, but it’s been proven that prison isn’t the answer for possession of small amounts of drugs. 3 years for that little would’ve been insane.
Background check? Whut background check?
according to the article she's still doing a suspended sentence till october 2026. will that be revoked now? probably not.
Seems nice. Rankin "8".
@ 4:54 - If she had actually served the 3 years she would have been in jail instead of committing this theft, and who knows how many other crimes.
Rankin county blessings?
Is this all methed up?
I've had a number of storage facility operators in various towns tell me they do not have a way to enter these sheds unless they cut the lock and don't do that until after two months of non-payment. How is it she had access the unit?
Math isn't your strong suit, is it? Her drug charge was in 2021. That would be approximately 5 years ago. I'll let your hamster run on the wheel from there. But that wouldn't support your "lock em all up and throw away the key" ignorance, would it?
@ 7:57 I agree that three years would have been overkill, but before you go calling out someones math skills, you might want to check your own reading comprehension skills. She was charged in '21, indicted in '23.
Are those "Stripes" or the new Checkerboard Pattern inmate attire?
I guess we can add Rankin County to the Catch and Release jurisdictions.
Valid, to a point. I missed the one line from KF and focused on the charges. My comprehension is just fine.
Regardless, that does not mean that she would have served a 3 year sentence from the indictment date. @4:39 is still on the short bus for that inane comment.
also she has 2 prior felony cases, this could result in an habitual indictment. but we will see.
i wonder if she is the same theif who stole $30k worth of vintage electronics from my clinate controlled storage in flowood?
She's been a petty criminal trying to feed her addiction for years. She was known in Clinton for finding receipts in the parking lot and then going in the store to fill her basket with corresponding items to try to "return them" for cash/gift cards.
her Facebook page shows her to be living the american dream and the perfect life............................................................. and we all know you cant put that stuff on facebook unless its true.
