Two Fayette County women have been arrested for the second time in two months on burglary charges. The Fayette County Sheriff’s Office also made additional arrests this week in cases including mortgage fraud and identity fraud.
Fayette County Sheriff’s investigators made two arrests on Dec. 7 in connection with a burglary case occurring on Nov. 3, according to spokesman Brent Rowan. Investigators arrested Kimberly Consolino, 39, of Cloister Drive, Peachtree City and Melissa Kay Painter, 28, of White Oak Way, Fayetteville, charging both with burglary.
Rowan said the case involved Consolino and Painter illegally entering into a residence on Kellie Lane in north Fayette with intentions of committing a theft.
Consolino, Painter and 45-year-old Riverdale resident Patricia M. Digsby were arrested last month on burglary charges for a Nov. 6 break-in at a residence on White Oak Way in unincorporated Fayette County.
Rowan said Fayette investigators made an arrest on Dec. 8 in connection with a mortgage fraud case which occurred on July 21. Investigators arrested Linda Gouch-Davis, 58, of Fayetteville and charged her with mortgage fraud.
This case involved Gouch-Davis illegally filing a document at the Fayette County Clerks Office that contained a deliberate misrepresentation of ownership of a residence on Morning Road, Rowan said.
Rowan said another arrest was made on Dec. 7 in connection with an identity fraud case that occurred on Nov. 20 and 21. Investigators arrested Keith Jones, 35, of Forest Park and charged him with three counts of identity fraud.
Rowan said this case involved Jones fraudulently creating a cloned credit card using the debit card number of a Fayette County citizen. Jones used the fraudulent card to make at least three purchases in Morrow.
And sheriff’s investigators on Dec. 6 made an arrest in connection with a forgery case which occurred on Nov. 14. Rowan said investigators have arrested Richard Louter, 50, of Moreland and charged him with two counts of forgery in the 1st degree.
This case involved Louter fraudulently using a Fayette County citizens name on an exterminating contract without the victim’s permission, Rowan said.
