Teen Girls Charged After Fairgrounds Vandalism

Two teens face serious charges after breaking into Columbia County Fairgrounds, leaving graffiti and causing major damage—caught on surveillance and tipped off by locals. Police say the 15- and 16-year-olds, from Chatham and Massachusetts, are now officially booked on burglary, criminal mischief, trespass, and vandalism. Authorities emphasized that while mistakes happen, damaging public property has real consequences—and the fairgrounds are a community treasure. Names withheld due to age, but police thanked everyone who helped solve it. A clear warning: even open spaces are private, and surveillance means no vandalism goes unnoticed. This incident is a sobering reminder that actions ripple outward—and consequences follow. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
