FAIRMONT, W.Va. -- Police say a Fairmont woman who was already married illegally wed another man and used his identity to obtain a credit card and money.
Thirty-year-old Glenna Lynn Wooten is charged with bigamy and forgery of a public record.
According to the criminal complaint, Wooten allegedly presented an altered birth certificate identifying herself as Lynn Davis to obtain a marriage license at the Marion County Courthouse in March.
The complaint says Wooten lived with the man who thought he was her husband long enough to use his identity to obtain a credit card and forge his name to six checks. She then went back to her husband of three years.
Wooten was arrested Tuesday and is free on bond. When reached for comment Friday, she hung up the phone.
