Wisconsin trio accused of writing bad checks in the names of dead soldiers
http://www.wbay.com/Global/story.asp?S=12559048

The Oneida County Sheriff's Department says two Green Bay men and a Milwaukee woman have been arrested for allegedly trying to pass fake checks in the names of Wisconsin soldiers who died in Iraq.

According to a news release from the sheriff's department, 46-year-old Bobby McLeod of Green Bay, 25-year-old James Larson of Green Bay and 25-year-old Tina Mitchem of Milwaukee were arrested last week after traffic stop in the Town of Lake Tomahawk. All three were arrested on parole violations, but officers say further investigation showed the three were allegedly traveling in Wisconsin and Michigan to produce and pass fraudulent checks.

Inside the car, officers say they found computers, software and a printer used to make the checks.

According to investigators at least two fraudulent checks were passed at a Walgreens store in Oneida County. The checks used the names of U.S. Armed Forces members from Wisconsin who were killed in the line of duty in Iraq.
