Was your relative prosecuted? If so, you might want to contact the prosecutor’s office that did so, & ask them what your options are. Also contact any police or other law enforcement agencies that you know of that may have arrested or investigated your relative.
I hope that you can find a way to correct this. Best of luck!

Good luck!

November 1, 2005 at 7:13 pmI thought I had seen a really good article about how to handle non-financial ID theft.
I just found it, in last month’s issue of Kiplinger Magazine (which is an outstanding magazine btw).
This article is available online: https://www.kiplinger.com/personalfinance/magazine/archives/2005/10/idtheft2.html.
Specific advice is offered, with resources that even very few in law enforcement know anything about.
This is important information, any one of us could need it next…
