In December 2007, Edward Anderton and his girlfriend Jocelyn Kirsch were arrested and charged with several crimes relating to a series of identity thefts. The couple used the over $116,000 they stole from their victims, including friends and neighbors, to furnish a high-class lifestyle. The media dubbed the Philadelphia-area duo the "Modern-day Bonnie and Clyde" and a federal prosecutor called them "the poster children for identity fraud." In October 2008, Kirsch was sentenced to five years in prison for her role in the scam.Telegraph: 'Modern-day Bonnie and Clyde' Edward Anderton... Philly.com: Jocelyn Kirsch Gets Five-Year Sentence
