Ex-“Deadliest Catch” star Jerod Sechrist has a trifecta — 3 arrests in 6 months … this time for theft, and cops say he admits he’s doing it to fuel his addiction.
Sechrist was arrested this week at a Tampa residence for 2 outstanding felony warrants for grand theft. The first alleged heist was a bunch of silver, collectible coins and a Rolex. According to cops, he allegedly swiped them from an ex-roommate and then sold them at a pawn shop.
The second warrant was for allegedly walking out of a Home Depot last month with a bucket filled with more than $800 in tools. Cops say he didn’t pay, and when a security guard stopped him outside … Sechrist dropped the bucket and bolted.
The former deckhand only appeared on 3 episodes in 2016 … but he made a lasting impression with fans because he continually pissed off his crew members.
When cops hauled him in this week, they say he told them he was hooked on heroin and was only stealing to get money for drugs. He asked if he could get treatment for his addiction.
As we reported, Sechrist was arrested last October for heroin possession, and then again in November for stealing from an Ikea.
He was already on probation and remains in jail without bail.
