Tami Sawyer Arrested

Embattled Bend real estate broker Tami Sawyer is behind bars in Portland. She was arrested Sunday night, reportedly at Portland International Airport after returning from a court-allowed visit to her rental property in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. She was booked into the Multnomah County Jail around 9:00; held for Deschutes County officials on $50,000 bail. Deschutes County Circuit Judge Alta Brady signed the arrest warrant Thursday, two days after her indictment on charges of felony first-degree criminal mistreatment and aggravated theft. The indictment accuses sawyer of taking custody of Thomas Middleton, 'A dependent or elderly person,' for purposes of fraud. Sawyer is accused of stealing more than $50,000 from the Thomas Middleton Revocable Trust. Sawyer and husband Kevin are scheduled to go on trial in December on federal charges of money laundering, fraud and conspiracy.
