Mesa County, Colo.

Two Utah women have pleaded guilty to several felony charges stemming from a federal probe of artifact thefts that has a Mesa County connection. Earlier on Monday, 59-year-old Jeannie Redd pleaded guilty to seven federal counts of theft of government property, theft of tribal property, and trafficking stolen artifacts. Her 37-year-old daughter, Jerrica, pleaded guilty to three similar counts.

Jeannie Redd is the wife of Dr. James Redd, who committed suicide last month the day after his name was announced as one of two dozen people being indicted.

Locally, a home in Orchard Mesa was searched on June 11th, pertaining to the large-scale investigation. According to documents from the U.S. Attorney’s Office, agents seized nearly two dozen items, including bird feathers, arrows, and paperwork, from a home connected to Robert Knowlton. The artifacts he’s accused of collecting come from sites in both Utah and Colorado.

The sweeping investigation is centering on items stolen from the Four Corners region, which also includes New Mexico and Arizona.
