From Sept. 1 to Dec. 31, 2024, Stubblefield is accused of knowingly obtaining control of over $50,000 by means of deception while standing in a position of trust or confidence with the same elderly victim.

Stubblefield also reportedly obtained over $10,000 from the same elderly victim on two separate occasions on Sept. 11 and Dec. 4, 2024 by means of deception. Charging documents state Stubblefield caused the victim to believe Stubblefield was being treated for a cancer diagnosis, knowing that he was not in fact being treated for a cancer diagnosis.

The Edwardsville Police Department presented the case against Stubblefield, who was ordered released from custody pending trial in this case.

All individuals charged are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
