In the criminal justice system:

  • As a follow-up to a case previously reported, former Navy petty officer, Cora Dixon, pleaded guilty and accepted a 15-year prison sentence for helping run an identity theft ring. She was accused of using her access to direct deposits at the Fort Worth Reserve Joint Base to take banking and personal information from 8,000 sailors and reservists to make fraudulent checks and identification cards that were used to steal nearly $2 million from 100 sailors and reservists at two Texas military bases.

  • Angela Moulton was sentenced to 10 years in prison for an identity fraud and theft scheme that ran from November 2005 through August 2008, and involved stealing mail from mailboxes in Cleveland.  She pleaded no contest and was found guilty in an 80 count indictment including charges of engaging in a pattern of corrupt activity, theft, receiving stolen property, identity fraud, forgery and tampering with records.
