The Polk County Sheriff’s Office has arrested an elected official. She was charged with aggravated stalking.
According to police, on Tuesday, February 26th, Ms. Maurice Nelson Campbell, 59, Vice Mayor of Fort Meade, was taken into custody. She is accused of repeatedly harassing a woman she has known for years.
Police said the unnamed victim said Ms. Campbell ac- cused her of having an intimate relationship with her (Camp- bell’s) husband.
According to the arrest affi- davit, the victim had contacted police in the past, but did not pursue criminal charges after Ms. Campbell stopped ha- rassing her.
However, on Friday, Febru- ary 8th, the victim said she re- ceived calls from Ms. Campbell at 4:46 p.m., and 7:30 p.m., from the phone be- longing to Ms. Campbell’s husband. The victim said she did not answer the calls.
The victim received a third call at 11:55 p.m., and the vic- tim answered. She said she im- mediately recognized the voice as that of Ms. Campbell, and disconnected. She received calls at 11:59 p.m., and two more calls that she did not an- swer.
The victim told police she turned her phone off for the re- mainder of the night. The next morning, she discovered three missed calls on her phone from Ms. Campbell’s phone. Two

of the calls were made from the phone belonging to Ms. Campbell. The victim did not recognize the third number.
Ms. Campbell also left voice messages on the phone.
The voicemails contained a variety of profanities and made a threat to cause the victim physical harm. During one of the calls, Ms. Campbell re- portedly said, “And this is Maurice Campbell and I ap- prove that (expletive) message, police said.
The victim told police she believed the threat to be credi- ble and that the frequent ha- rassment had caused her undue stress and anxiety. The victim said she believes Ms. Camp- bell uses her position on the Fort Meade City Commission to intimidate her.
Ms. Campbell has been arrested in the past for aggra- vated assault with a deadly weapon (Jacksonville); shoplifting (Orlando); and petty larceny, failure to appear (Orange County).

The Sheriff’s Office is also posting billboards featuring Saint Louis’ photograph and a photograph of his missing ve- hicle. Pasco Sheriff’s Office hopes offering this enhanced reward will encourage the pub- lic to provide additional infor- mation necessary to solve this homicide and locate Saint Louis’s vehicle.
The vehicle is a 4-door 2015 Chevrolet Sonic with the Florida tag # EQS W64 and was
last seen by toll plaza cameras on the Polk Parkway in central Florida. The billboards are pro- vided in conjunction with the FBI.
