Identity theft: a case study
Mar. 25th, 2009 09:14 pmI've mentioned how one of my favorite musicians was David Lynn Jones, and the mystery about how he basically disappeared after his fourth album was released.
Well, today, I found out what most likely happened: one of the most extensive cases of identity theft I've heard about. He's apparently had 5 albums completed, but couldn't release any of them because the ring of thieves had done such an extensive job on his identity that they'd managed to divert all royalty checks to them. Fortunately, it sounds like they finally slipped up and were arrested...hopefully DLJ can get his life back, and we'll get to hear what he's been working on.
