Overview
- Schronce, arrested in Oconee County on Monday on two breach of trust counts, was released that afternoon on a $4,250 personal recognizance bond.
- Deputies say the latest charges stem from two online customers who paid hundreds of dollars for children’s clothes but received neither the items nor refunds.
- One Oconee victim reported seven orders between October 2024 and March 2025 totaling about $487 and says repeated refund promises produced nothing.
- Another victim told investigators she preordered outfits in December 2024, got a $73.02 gift-card refund in July 2025, used it on new items that never arrived in January 2026, and cannot use the remaining balance because the shop is closed.
- Authorities report 16 arrests across several South Carolina counties this year, the boutique is shut, and prosecutors are weighing how to coordinate the cases while urging potential victims to contact police.
