    Default Accused of Shoplifting Due to Identity Theft

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Michigan

    My daughter had her purse stolen Nov 2015 and the person who stole it committed 2nd degree retail fraud. The incident report states that the person fled and dropped the bag which contained 2 licenses along with the merchandise. Loss prevention felt the picture matched my daughter? At the time of all of this my daughter was at work that day and 7 months pregnant! This happened Jan 2016. Never knew any of this was happening until my daughter was in a fender bender and was arrested for a warrant that was issued for all of this! She was arrested April 2017. Went to jail they let her go on a personal bond, no arraignment until today 5 weeks later. She was appointed a lawyer but that is all we know so far. She was just denied a job because of all this, been a total nightmare! Nobody will tell us anything, what can be done about this? She has never been questioned, read her rights? I

    If she has an alibi then her lawyer should very easily be able to get the charges dropped.

    Did she file a police report when her purse was stolen? That would help and the fact that they found it in someone else's bag with another ID when that person left the store that day.

    She has a lawyer - let her lawyer do his or her job.

    No police report was made on the stolen purse but the stolen license was reported at the Secretary of State. She does have an alabi but this whole process is just crazy to me!

    I know exactly what you're going through a girl who I thought was my friend stole my I'd out of my purse went down to the DMV with the girl who posed as me and signed my signature on the forms to transfer my title over to her, I have my original title so I have no clue what they used to transfer my title over. The DMV is trying to save their asses because they failed to notice that the person who stole my identity was not me that day 5/20/2017 they said they don't have video. I wish I reported my I'd stolen the I lost it so this thief wouldn't have done what she did. I know my signature and I pray the title fraud detective notice that thank God she wasn't issued a title. I too lost sleep over this crap just have faith God will take of this whole situation have your daughter keep a log of what happened a timeline of what happened will help​ often we forget over time of things so if she keeps a log it will be more helpful take care
