  • Governor's office suspends Kissimmee mayor pro tem
  • Sara Shaw facing felony grand theft charges
  • She's accused of living in dead woman's home with boyfriend

Sara Katherine Shaw was charged earlier this week with grand theft and fraudulent use of deceased personal information.

Shaw's term is up in weeks.

The Florida Department of Law Enforcement received information from the Kissimmee Police Department in August 2015 about Shaw and her boyfriend, Peter Sendtko, allegedly living at the home of Carol Woosley, who died in October 2011.

“In April 2014, the couple moved into the residence without permission and filed an adverse possession without color of title with Osceola County Property Appraisers in an attempt to establish ownership of Woosley’s residence,” FDLE said.

The two have bonded out of the Osceola County Jail.
