Monday morning Plymouth Police were informed by a woman that she had been living with a man she knew as Michael A. Davis for about four years and had just recently learned his actual name was Michael Landrum. She also told city police he had counterfeit ID’s at her home.
Police ran a warrant check and found that Michael Landrum had arrest warrants in St. Joseph County for Fraud and Theft.
Detective Leo Mangus located Landrum Monday afternoon and he identified himself as Michael Davis. In his possession was medication prescribed to Michael Davis. During an interview he admitted that his real name was Michael Landrum and that he had used the name of Michael Davis when obtaining the prescribed medication. Numerous counterfeit and forged documents, including a counterfeit check were recovered during this investigation.
Michael Landrum was arrested and lodged at the Marshall County Jail. His bond has been set at $5,000.00. He is also being held for St. Joseph County.
Listeners and readers are reminded that charging information supported by an affidavit of probable cause is merely an allegation that a crime has been committed and that there is only probable cause to believe a crime has been committed. They are presumed innocent throughout the proceedings and are entitled to be represented by counsel and entitled to a trial by jury at which the State is obligated to provide proof beyond a reasonable doubt before a judgment of guilt may be made.
