After a month long investigation, Detectives with Knox County Sheriff's Office arrested 31 year old James Dearing of Knoxville and charged him with five counts of aggravated residential burglary.  Each of the five charges carried a $100,000 bond.  After identifying Dearing as the suspect near the end of September, Detectives were able to apprehend him within hours of a burglary.  All property from that burglary was recovered, as well as property from several other break ins.  Dearing was out on bond for eight aggravated burlgary charges that the KCSO had arrested him for in January and February of this year.  A mugshot is available and will be emailed upon request.
