In May 2023, she submitted documentation to transfer ownership of a home on East Fifth Street to a company, A & C Home Restoration LLC, that Humphreys had registered the previous month,” Lohud’s Jonathan Bandler reported.

  1. Charlene Humphreys is corrupt and always has been. Don’t let her fool you she is cunning and always know what to say. She belong behind bars. For all the damage she has costed the families of the late deceased and for committing a crime. Sometimes people never learn until they go through the fire.
