When questioned by police, Fledderman allegedly admitted to entering the home in Sunman. Fledderman is also accused of burglarizing homes in Ripley and Decatur counties. She has charges pending in Ripley County for Burglary (Level 4 felony), Theft (Class A misdemeanor) and Residential Entry (Level 6 felony).
