Woman Found Sleeping In Stolen Vehicle Says She’s Not Guilty

June 29, 2009

A Jay woman found sleeping in a car stolen in Century has entered a not guilty plea in Escambia Count Circuit Court.

ricerachelk.jpgRachel K. Rice, 30, of Jay, was found by an Escambia County Sheriff’s Department deputy asleep in a vehicle at the south end of Fairfield Drive on Bayou Grande. The vehicle had a busted rear window, according to the ECSO report. A check of the vehicle’s tag revealed it has been stolen a few days before from North Freedom Road in Century.

Rice was booked into the Escambia County Jail on a grand theft auto, a third degree felony. She remains the jail on $1,500 bail.

Rice has entered a not guilty plea on the charge,  and she was appointed a public defender due to her indigent status. Her next court appearance is scheduled for July 9.
