Cantonment Woman Charged With Stealing Her Jailed Brother’s Car And Selling it
March 9, 2021
A Cantonment woman is accused of stealing her brother’s vehicle and selling it by having another person impersonate her brother — all while he was in jail.
Niquita Lashon Potter, 35, was charged with grand theft of a motor vehicle, dealing in stolen property and altering a vehicle title.
After Potter’s brother was arrested, he requested that she retrieve and maintain his 2019 Dodge Charger. After getting out of prison, he learned the car had been sold without his permission.
Potter told deputies that her father provided a key and location of the vehicle. She explained that her father was sleeping with a woman while she was sleeping with the woman’s husband, according to arrest report. State records showed the Dodge was now registered in the name of the woman the father was sleeping with, the report continues. Both individuals denied they were involved in any intimate relationship with the parties in the case.
The vehicle was allegedly sold to the man with which Potter claimed to have an intimate relationship, the report states. He provided documentation showing he was making payments to Potter on the vehicle.
Potter remained in the Escambia County Jail Tuesday with bond set at $17,500.

And banks finance a vehicle to such a messed up bunch! Amazed – brother must have had a bundle of cash as down payment
Wow, I had to build a flow chart to follow this one.
So when ole dad has an affair with a married woman, a good daughter will keep the husband occupied. The things we do for family.
Yawn. It’s the old, “brother goes to jail and entrusts his ride to his sister who forges his signature and sells his car to her lover/dad’s girlfriend’s brother” story. Wait…what?!
Well, that screws up Thanksgiving!!!
@ Denny
Thank you ! That is the funniest comment I’ve ever read.
Denny…..LOL!
@ Denny: Obviously not HIS car!!!
Made for Maury’s Show…
Who’s cheatin’ who, who’s being true
Who don’t even care anymore
It makes you wonder
Who’s doing right with someone tonight
And who’s car is parked next door…
This is where you use the “Complicated” designation for the relationship status on Facebook.
this is so awesome! The brother gets thrown in jail, the sister steals a car from her brother, sells it to someone who presumably is sleeping with her dad while she’s sleeping with some else related to who the dad is sleeping with? Geez you can’t get much more stable than that!!! I’d LOVE to see the family reunion with this group!! lol
Just can’t trust anyone.
What a mess, family affair!
Brother’s cars lives matter!
You simply can’t make this stuff up. SMH
Sounds like an episode of Maury!
“Oh, what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive!” With apologies to Sir Walter Scott, who would not want to be drug into this sordid mess.
Maybe they will reunite in prison. I wonder how many other family members are incarcerated.
Wow, you just can’t make this stuff up. Who is sleeping with who and who sold the car to who. I guess mama got run over by the train.
