John Warren was arrested in Lowndes County, Georgia in May and charged with property theft and engaging in criminal activity.

The Midland County Auditor's Office reported the possible theft by Vector or its employees back in 2020, and investigation revealed Warren had submitted $1,003,776.66 in fraudulent invoices to Midland County as well as charging $1,319,588.88 to false companies on a company credit card.

Justin and Cynthia Warren were also arrested for their participation in the fraud.
