A Maynardville woman faces additional charges in connection to her time employed by the Union County Clerk’s Office.

The TBI began investigating 38-year-old Whitney Goins last November and learned that she made fraudulent charges to the banking accounts of two private citizens.

This week, the Union County Grand Jury returned indictments charging Goins with one count of Theft over $10,000 and two counts of Official Misconduct. On Wednesday (Feb. 26, 2025), she was taken into custody and booked into the Union County Jail on a $100,000 bond.

Goins was previously charged with Fraudulent Use of Credit Card and Official Misconduct in connection to a separate incident that occurred while she was employed at the Clerk’s Office.
