Women Forgers Held After Long Forgery Spree
Two Kansas born sisters Blanché and Grace Stauber, graduates of Kansas Wesleyan University and Bethany College, were detained in Los Angeles County Hospital to determine their plea after pleading guilty to forgery charges. Police say they forged and cashed about 25,000 in checks across more than twenty cities, traveling to evade arrest. The pair, once destitute after an inheritance dwindled, financed scams by writing checks for small sums to local stores and banks after hours. Their father, a former trustee, died years ago leaving a small policy and home, with the sisters blaming church associations for their losses.
