Who knew that Amanda Hugankiss wasn’t the Secretary of the Treasury or that Harry Paratestes wasn’t the Treasurer of the United States?
On September 18, Monica Nicholson was thrown in the clink. The 37-year-old was facing charges of fraud stemming from, among other things, her attempts to pass forged checks. A few weeks later, Nicholson finally posted bail. With a cashier’s check.
You see where we’re going with this?
Unfortunately, the jail folks were a little slow on the uptake, so by the time they figured out that the check was no good, Nicholson had of course flown the coop. She posted on October 2, so it’s a month-plus that she’s been on the lam now, and while they’ve tracked down two guys they believe to be her accomplices, she and another man remain at large.
The sheriff’s department says they’re treating this like a jail break. Which makes me think they need to get a fed like William Fichtner’s character on “Prison Break.” If that dude can figure out Michael Scofield’s plans, what with the complicated body tattoo, coded origami swans and the like, he should have no problem with a lady who just passes some bum checks.
Oh, and in case you were curious, “[t]he jail isn’t accepting cashier’s checks for the time being.”
