Woman Sentenced for Bad Checks and Charged Again
Derri Sue
Morgan
(DOB 6-14-66) was sentenced to prison today for forging checks
at a local King Soopers over a year ago. Originally charged
with 22 counts of criminal impersonation and forgery, Morgan
later pleaded guilty to one count of theft, a class four
felony. Morgan was working with a group of 6 others who have
already pleaded and been sentenced. She will serve four years
in the Department of Corrections and is ordered to pay more than
$6000 in restitution.
Morgan has
been charged again today in a new case with forgery
(F5). The charge alleges that she wrote a counterfeit check at
a
Denver
restaurant last month while awaiting sentencing on the earlier
case. Morgan will appear in Denver District Courtroom 12T on
March 18, 2004 at
9:00 a.m.
for second advisement.
Morgan faces
up to 3 years in prison on the new charge.
