In November 2023, the Marshall County Sheriff's Department obtained a complaint that funds were stolen from the debit card account of a county resident.

The Marshall County Sheriff's Department initiated an investigation and discovered that the suspects were also involved in breaking into abandoned buildings and homes and stealing copper and scrap.

A case report detailing those events was forwarded to the Marshall County Prosecutor's Office for formal charges.

Mackenzie Vanlue, 24, of Fulton, was charged with theft, Level 6 felony.  She was held on a $3,000 cash bond.  

Two days later, Kristofer Conley, 23, of Culver, was arrested for two counts of burglary as Level 5 felonies, and two counts of theft, also Level 5.  His cash bond was set at $25,000 cash.
