Manila, Utah—On April 4th, 2026, Deputy Guymon was notified at 12:55 PM of a welfare check in Manila.
The caller stated that 46-year-old Amanda Jane Hatch was involved in a traffic accident the night before near Lonetree, Wyoming, and was supposedly at the address on 4th E. The complainant asked that a deputy check on the female and ensure she was okay, as she didn't go to the hospital after the accident.
At 12:55 PM, the deputy arrived at the residence and observed a female descending the front porch stairs. Deputy Guymon asked if her name was Amanda, and she said no. He asked again if her name was Amanda Hatch, to which she stated no.
The deputy asked the female what her name was, and the female then stated it was "Elisabeth.” He asked for her driver's license, and she stated that she was involved in a traffic accident and left it in the vehicle. When asked for her date of birth, she told the deputy she did not want to provide it.
He asked if she was okay and whether she wanted an ambulance to check her out, to which she said no. The deputy, believing that she was conscious and alert enough to refuse care, ended the interaction, then called the complainant and asked him more questions about the reason for the welfare check.
Deputy Guymon informed the complainant that Hatch seemed alert enough to refuse any medical treatment, and that she left heading westbound on SR-43. The complainant acknowledged that he would be in Manila in about two hours and stated that, if Hatch was still walking, he would attempt to pick her up.
At around 1:20 PM, Deputy Guymon received a call from Dispatch reporting a female on the side of SR-43 who appeared to have passed out. When he arrived at the scene, he observed two individuals attempting to help Hatch stand back up, and upon reaching them, he instructed them to have Hatch sit back down while medical was en route.
EMS arrived, and Hatch gave them the same false information and wouldn't give them her DOB. Deputy Guymon located Hatch's Utah Driver's License, went to the ambulance where she was located, and asked her to provide her official government name. Hatch attempted to state it was Elisabeth, and then Deputy Guymon asked if it was really her name. She then stated no and said her name was Amanda Hatch. The deputy asked her to provide her DOB, to which she stated 04/08/1980.

The complainant stated that he believed Hatch was misusing her prescription medications, and said he had never seen her like this, and did not want her at the property in Manila, and he did not want to pick her up.
Amanda Hatch was later arrested and transported to the UCSO Jail. Deputy Guymon asked Hatch if she had anything on her that would be a subsequent offense upon entering the jail, to which Hatch stated no. Upon arriving at the jail, the Uintah County Deputies placed Hatch in the x-ray scanner and found a hidden THC vape pen located in her bra.
