The owner of a South Carolina baby boutique has been taken into custody once again — four days after her 15th arrest this year, according to authorities.
Pamela Brooke Shronce, who is accused of scamming dozens of customers throughout the state, was arrested on Monday, April 6, on two counts of breach of trust with fraudulent intent, according to the Oconee County Sheriff’s Office.
This is Schronce’s 16th arrest — and the 16th time she’s had her mugshot taken — in 2026, WHNS reported.
Oconee County sheriff’s deputies arrested Schronce, 30, in connection with two victims who placed orders with Schronce’s business and never received items they allegedly paid for, the agency said in a news release.
Several customers have raised similar complaints against Schronce, who is from Belton, where she owns Thomas & Turner Boutique, Us Weekly previously reported.
According to the Oconee County Sheriff’s Office, “the business is now closed.”
Schronce has advertised her business as a “boutique for trendy little babies” that offers “custom designed” clothing, according to her boutique’s Instagram page.
One of the two individuals Schronce is accused of scamming in Oconee County told law enforcement that she had ordered from Schronce’s business online seven times between October 2024 and March 2025, the sheriff’s office said. The purchases were worth nearly $500 in total.
The woman told a deputy that she sent several emails to Schronce about how she never received the items she ordered and was “promised refunds,” according to the sheriff’s office.
“However, no money was refunded, and the citizen never received the items that she ordered,” the sheriff’s office said.
Sherri Shepherd won’t let her love for The Real Housewives of Potomac prevent her from discussing Dr. Wendy Osefo’s recent arrest. “I love all of the girls because some of them have been on my show,” Shepherd, 58, shared on the Wednesday, October 15, episode of Sherri. “They’ve all been really, really fun guests.” When […]
On March 16, another woman told an Oconee County fraud investigator that she “pre-ordered matching children’s outfits” from Schronce’s boutique in December 2024 that she “never received,” according to authorities.
The woman received a partial refund on a gift card, which she received several months later in July 2025, according to the sheriff’s office. The refund was for $73.02.
She then used the gift card to purchase new items from Schronce’s business, but the items never arrived in January as scheduled, according to authorities.
“The victim never received her order, and the victim cannot use the remaining balance on the gift card due to the fact that the business is now closed,” the sheriff’s office said.
Schronce’s attorney, Joy C. Davis, did not immediately return a request for comment from Us on Tuesday, April 7.
Schronce has not responded to Us’ repeated requests for comment.
On Thursday, April 2, Schronce was arrested for the 15th time in Greenville County on five counts of obtaining property valued at $2,000 or less under false pretenses, Us previously reported.
After her arrest on April 6, she was transferred from a Greenville County jail to the Oconee County Detention Center.
Following Schronces’s 13th arrest, which occurred in Newberry County, Davis previously told Us via email on March 3 that “Schronce is really looking forward to her day in court.”
The Oconee County Sheriff’s Office is continuing to investigate Schronce.
