In bizarre news out of the aloha state, according to reports by the Chief of the Honolulu prosecutor’s office Christopher Van Marter, this is the biggest single legal case involving identity theft which they have prosecuted, due to the number of credit card issuers and the numbers 9over one hundred of them) of offenses. All in all, the former Miss Hawaii International Susan Shaw is basically set to start her court trial for the charge of identity theft on July 20th in Circuit Court. If convicted of this, the defendent could be sentenced to life in prison, says Van Marter. Furthermore, she has likewise been convicted of a 1993 theft at the Holiday Mart store. She requires counseling, in my own opinion, along with the incarceration. maybe she will get both actually. By the way, if you happen to require some sort of credit counseling services then I recommend Commcredit.org. They can assist with Debt Management, Non Profit credit counseling plus various types of Debt consolidation services. For her part, the defendent was convicted of theft in the second degree in March of 1994. According to Van Marter, while not divulging how Shaw found her victims, did state the documented facts of the alleged case began in April of 2008 and investigators continue to investigate the case in Honolulu and in Manhattan Beach.
