This is very extreme, but it happens all the time that they believe liars who accuse their victim of doing what they did themselves. Why can't they see it? Just look at these eyes. You can see in one instance that one is a criminal and one is innocent.

The judge who did this to me, I was sure she was at least a narcissist, but lately I saw one who admits they made mistakes and she just talks like it's no big deal and everyone makes mistakes. Lives totally ruined, some even dead, but she doesn't even get fired.
 
My reaction is a strong WTF. I mean, DNA testing existed in 2019, it is crazy that the victim was jailed.

How sad to go to jail for attempting to close what you thought (correctly) were fraudulent bank accounts created in your name.

I hope the real Woods sues his public defender for not believing him to the point that he thought he was guilty and mentally incompetent - without even trying to prove Wood's identity. Sheesh, that public 'defender' should lose his law license.
 
When I was still in my 20's, I rented a couple of condos in South Florida. I was at the latter one and the owner of the first one stopped by with a stack of mail. They were bills from appliance stores, jewelers, etc. that I had never done business with. 2 crooks had stolen my identity and were buying items all over South Florida! I think this happened because I left some paperwork in a car I traded in.

I was barely squeaking by at the time, but my credit was good. They had eventually purchased cars worth $55k. They were selling them through the name Middleman Enterprises. The FBI got involved and they were eventually caught because there was a video of them buying jewelry in an upscale store in South Florida.

So, it wasn't as serious as in the OP, but they essentially stole my identity. It took me years to get my credit and even my DL straightened out. :(
 
I think he would or should have sued.

The person who stole the identity got 12 years in federal prison, which is not a cake walk. He will be required to work within the prison earning about 25 cents an hour and will not be paroled. However, after he serves 85% of his sentence (just over 10 years), he will be eligible for supervised release.

The police should have tested his DNA before he was arrested. It's a mystery to me how they had probable cause to arrest him.
