Bad checks cited as top crime in annual legal office report
LaSalle County State's Attorney Robert E. Richardson says deceptive practices and insufficient fund or no account checks have been the most common crimes for three years. Merchants often accept checks without proper safeguards, and the office will not act as a collection agency for bad checks. Verification of identity is urged, especially for first-time customers. The note on Santa Claus credits Harper's Weekly and Thomas Nast for the character's image.
