Two Charged After Stolen Vehicle Recovered At Molino Store
May 3, 2022
Two people were charged after deputies recovered a stolen vehicle at the Tom Thumb in Molino.
Melissa Renee Andrews, 31, was charged with dealing in stolen property, and Justin Michael Odom, age 27 of Cantonment, was charged with resisting an officer without violence.
The Escambia County Sheriff’s Office responded to the Tom Thumb Sunday to recover a gray Chevrolet Equinox that had been reported stolen from Atmore.
Deputies found Andrews and Odom inside the vehicle. When a deputy approached, he was met by Justin Michael Odom who stated his name was “Charlie Odom”. While the deputy investigated his real identity, Odom took off running through the Highway 29 and Highway 97 intersection.
The deputy gave chase and tackled Odom.
The ECSO said a brief struggle followed before Odom was handcuffed. He suffered minor road rash from the tussle.
Odom was booked into the Escambia County Jail without bond due to a probation violation. Andrews remained in the Escambia County Jail with bond set at $5,000.

Why has he been arrested so many times for grand theft auto and the case gets dismissed???? He must be “borrowing” someone’s car without permission and when they get it back, they drop charges. At this point the state needs to continue to prosecute! He is wasting taxpayer dollars and putting peoples lives in danger!! Constantly arrested over the last 10 years and still on the street. Leaving the scene of an accident, Driving w/o license, using a firearm while under the influence, multiple grand theft auto, multiple resisting arrest (one time after a shooting he started running!!!! Who does he know???? This is ridiculous. It makes no sense when other cases get hard lined on a first offense as a minor.
Looks like that road whooped him up.
All is good though, too much trash on the roads these days.
Caught red-handed.
I just don’t get why two able people don’t have the common sense to get up off their lazy tush & make something of themselves. Instead they disappoint everyone & make themselves out to be pure, useless trash.
Good job to the Deputy who put his life in danger to get these maggots off our streets. God bless them all.
