Brown Paroled After Supreme Court Reverses Fraud Ruling
Fred Brown of Seattle Washington county was released from Michigan City prison after the state supreme court overturned a lower court finding of theft by false pretenses. Brown had been sentenced to one to seven years for obtaining money with a check drawn on Balom Bank and instructing the creditor not to cash it for three days. The creditor seized the check, Brown was arrested, and the case was initially deemed fraud. The supreme court ruled Brown’s promise to refrain from cashing the check for three days did not prove intent to defraud, reversing the lower court’s decision.
