From staff reports OKLAHOMA CITY – A Guthrie couple was sentenced to federal prison for using stolen identities to buy three vehicles.
In February a federal grand jury here indicted Kyler Womack and Megan McKinley, both 34, on charges of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, wire fraud, and aggravated identity theft.
Records show that in September 2023, Womack and McKinley conspired together to purchase three vehicles using the stolen information of other individuals. The couple’s attempted purchase of a fourth vehicle was unsuccessful and led to their arrests.
Court records showed the couple possessed the personal information of hundreds of individuals. There is no evidence the couple was responsible for the original theft of the information, and how they came to possess the information is unknown.
Womack and McKinley both pleaded guilty and admitted they conspired to commit wire fraud by fraudulently purchasing vehicles with stolen IDs.
Womack was sentenced to 21 months in federal prison, and McKinley was sentenced to 18 months in federal prison. Both will be under two years of supervised release after their release from incarceration.
