Incident: Hindering and Obstructing
Date of Incident: 24 January 2010
Location: 1000 block of West Road, Salisbury, MD
Suspect: Denise Stallings, 28, Salisbury, MD

Narrative: On 24 January 2010 at 4:42 PM, a deputy from the Wicomico County Sheriff’s Office responded to a residence in the 1000 block of West Rd for the purpose of locating a wanted subject, James Lee Travis. Sheriff’s Office personnel had received a tip through Crime Solvers that Travis could be found at that location. Upon arrival, a female resident, Denise Stallings greeted the deputy and declared that Travis was not present nor did Travis live there. The deputy knew from a previous visit to the residence that Travis did reside there and that Stallings had told the same deputy on a prior visit that the individual who would later be identified as Travis was someone else.

The deputies asked for and received permission to enter the residence and look for Travis. Deputies subsequently found him hiding underneath a bed, at which point he was taken into custody. When the deputies located Travis, Stallings continued to try and tell the deputies that the subject they had was not Travis.

Travis was transported to the Detention Center where he was detained on an outstanding Circuit Court Bench Warrant that charged him with Violation of Probation in a MDOP over $500 case. Travis was detained on a bond of $10,000.00.

The deputy placed Stallings under arrest and brought her to the Central Booking Unit where she was processed and taken in front of the District Court Commissioner. After an initial appearance, the Commissioner released Stallings on Personal Recognizance.
