The Winnsboro woman who set herself on fire in October is now facing criminal charges. Sharmeka Moffitt has been charged with terrorizing and filing a false police report, according to NBC News10 in Monroe.

Franklin Parish sheriff Kevin Cobb said Moffitt has not been arrested yet, but will be processed and arrested when she goes to court in April.

Cobb said Franklin Parish District Attorney Mack Lancaster made the decision to not arrest Moffitt at this time due to her medical condition.

She is not considered a flight risk and that's why her booking has been delayed until her arraigment.
