Case #71,215 - Landry & Landry

case 71215 Back in 1998, Daryl A. Landry of Barrington, New Hampshire, went to the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) to renew his driver’s license and was told that there was a warrant out for his arrest for assaulting a state trooper. As it turns out, Darryl M. Landry of Watertown, Massachusetts—a registered sex offender—had stolen Daryl A. Landry’s identity several years ago and had been giving out the stolen identification whenever he got into trouble. Although Daryl A. Landry attempted to explain the situation to law enforcement officials, it was to no avail, as he continued to receive warrants for his arrest and threatening phone calls from parents claiming that he abducted their children. Finally, after nearly a decade of fighting warrants and enraged parents, Daryl A. Landry cleared his name when Darryl M. Landry was apprehended in March of 2007.*
